New Kid on the Block : Canon Selphy CP790
Canon UK has launched a new compact printer in Selphy CP790. This dye sublimation thermal printer is an offshoot of its Selphy predecessors but offers better printing quality along with a host of new functions.
The best possible resolution on this printer is 300 X 300 dpi. The printer optionally carries paper cassettes that allows the printer to function with paper sizes of 10cm X 20cm along with credit-card size (5.4cm X 8.6cm) media. It is also capable of producing credit card sized stickers.
A 4″ X 6″ sized postcard print takes around 47 seconds, which is good for a compact printer.
Canon has powered the printer with wireless connectivity through Bluetooth technology and infra-red. CP790 can source its prints from Bluetooth devices such as cell phones.
The printer is mounted with a 3″ LCD screen for viewing photos prior to printing and to navigate through the menu. It comes with a bucket solution for integrated storage of consumables and prints.
The Canon Selphy CP790 will go on sale from the second week of July and is likely to cost £169.
