instant gratification in a photo printer
When traveling with kids, I find that there are two inevitable truths:
1. You take a lot of photos.
2. You never do anything with those photos.
I have recommended the HP Photosmart Photo Printer so many times to friends, especially new parents, and everyone loves it. I was given the predecessor to this printer as a gift when I had my first child. Out of courtesy, I opened the box, put the midget printer on my shelf, and figured that it would become a nice paperweight. As a photographer, I have a wide-format, professional Epson printer connected to my computer — what would I possibly do with another?
This printer is so simple and perfect that it is addictive. You take the memory card out of your camera, stick it in the printer, and a few minutes later you have beautiful little full-bleed prints. No need for a computer at all.
And don’t print with the HP paper included – buy Epson 4×6 Photo Paper – the photo quality is much better than any of the HP ones.
