Canon SELPHY DS810 InkJet Photo Printer

It's good but not good enough!

About two months ago my brother-in-law bought this Canon Selphy DS810 InkJet Photo Printer because his regular printer could not print photo’s that well.

I think he said that he bought it for about $125. Personally, I think he got ripped off because this printer prints good quality photos, but sometimes it leaves visible ink droplets on the photos that over time ruin the photo. So basically, stay away from this printer even if it is a Canon. I was surprised at first to see the big ink drops on some of the photos; I mean I would have never expected that from Canon. All disadvantages aside, this printer does have some good features that I liked. Anyways, let’s get down and dirty with the details where I tell you my experience with this little ink wasting devil.


DESIGN & CONTROLS :
One of the things I liked about this printer is that it is small and portable. This means, you can have it sit on your bed and spit out photo after photo without having to connect to a computer (just insert the memory card or just connect your digital camera). But you also have the option to connect it to a computer and print from your photo library stored on your computers hard drive.

It has a nice 2.5” color LCD screen that comes in handy when you print directly from a flash memory card. There are many buttons on the top of the printer just below the LCD screen, which will help your turn this thing on or off, handle printing from memory cards, or your camera. The memory card slots are located on the front just above the photo paper tray. It is compatible with SmartMedia, Memory Stick, Secure Digital (SD), Multimedia Card, xD Picture Card, MicroDrive, MiniSD, Memory Stick Pro, and Memory Stick DUO.

There is a USB 1.1 port on the left of the photo paper tray. The specifications also say that with the correct software, you can take advantage of the Bluetooth feature that allows you to print photos wirelessly from say your cell phone (with Bluetooth capabilities of course). I have not tried this feature yet so I cannot that anything about it, but just wanted to note that it is possible.
