Review on Canon Wireless Compact AirPrint Printing by Michael Hall

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Doesn't work for photo booth strips via AirPrint

After watching videos of this photo booth strip printing side by side (2 prints 2x6 of 4x6 paper) I thought it would work for a photo booth at a party. I was wrong. With this printer you can print almost all advertised layouts ONLY if you print from SD or USB. It will be a 4x6 AirPrint, but almost nothing else can be printed, which to me completely defeats the purpose of it. I was also disappointed with the look of this thing after you put the paper cassette on. It turns that tiny printer into a big, fragile thing. It seems very easy to hit him and break off one of the plastic flaps. The printing process also seems poor for a photo booth or party. It prints the entire print 4 times (to get each CMYK pass) but I could easily see someone not knowing and trying to grab it for one of those passes and ruining everything. Overall the prints look good. but I would only like this if used in the safety of my own home. Everything else seems too volatile. returned.

Pros
  • printer and scanner
Cons
  • Expensive
