Canon 4350B001 Wireless Color Photo Printer

The CP800 fulfills all my needs. My needs are to be able to take portrait-like pictures at group functions and print them so people can have a copy right away. It prints excellent prints, is very compact and light, easy to use from a memory card, is realitively fast and fairly cheap (about 25-30 cents per picture.) I like the fact that it starts with the last picture on the memory card instead of the first so you don’t have to cycle past a bunch of pictures you don’t need prints of.I tired printing directly from the camera (Canon A3100) but it automatically printed a picture from the memory card when I plugged the cable into the camera before I even took a picture. I’m sure there are some setting that will control that but they weren’t obvious. My expectation is that I could leave the cable connected and, as I took a picture, I could print it or not without taking the memory card out of the camera. Currently I just take a few pictures and swap memory cards so some can be printing while I’m taking more pictures. Workable but cumbersome. When/if I do get that working the camera-to-printer cable provided is relatively short (about 2 feet) so it doesn’t give you a lot of flexibility in placement of the whole set up.Another slight down side is that the photo dimensions and the paper dimensions are not the same. Some portion of the top and bottom of a photo you take will not be printed so you have to adjust in your head to leave space when you take the picture.I really got this to upgrade from an older, non-Canon portable photo printer and the fact that Polaroid’s aren’t around any more. The old one was slow, wouldn’t handle larger memory cards and was getting quirky. I had tried just buying a cheap inkjet printer which has more functionality but is just too big and bulky to cart around and ink cartridges are more expensive than the printer itself.I’m ordering the battery pack for it so I can be cord-free and even more portable. running power cables around where lots of people are walking is a definite pain so the battery will really be helpful if it works well.
