Printing Digital Photos By The Poolside
We will only need to go a few years back in time to have a situation where a thing like printing while lying next to a hotel pool might seem unreal. But with the increasing advancements in technology for both laptop computers and printers, this is now a possibility. You can actually bring a wireless portable printer to the pool and place it in the bar (safe distance from the water) and send documents and pictures from your PC or digital camera directly to the printer. Wireless technology can be utterly amazing.
One of the reasons that printing your digital photos while on holiday is due to the fact that these printers weigh less than 2 pounds and are easy to pack in a suitcase or a small traveling bag. A printer such as the Canon IP100 will not only fit info most bags but it can still print at a resolution of 9600×2400 dpi which is more than normal household printers are able to do. And if that isn’t enough for you then it was actually designed to print pictures taken with digital cameras and if will therefore print in colors as well.
Due to the patented PictBridge technology developed by Canon technicians, you are able to send the pictures directly from your camera (if compatible) to the printer without the use of wires. If that is not something worth paying for, I do not know what is. All of these great features come at a price and if you look at a place like Amazon or similar retail store selling printers, you will find this particular model to cost about $200. This might seem expensive in comparison to many of the normal home and small office printers that will cost somewhere between $50-$100 but you will be hard pressed carrying those with you by the pool.
