On Location Printer
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for an On Location printer. I am wanting to set up a booth to take photos for holidays and special occasions at the local college and/or senior centers and other events and want a printer that I can hook up to my laptop and print the photo within a few minutes of taking it so the customer can sit, I can shoot, adjust in PhotoShop if needed, let it print, and them walk away happy fairly quickly.

Hi Monica, I have the same issue, but the events I'm doing are a little different. I purchased the HP Photosmart 6380 for $199 and it gave GREAT quality for an event like yours. However, the ink prices killed me! The way it was sold to me was that ink cartridges are $10 each and you only replace what you need. I really liked that, but there are 5 cartridges and the ink doesn't go very far. I ended up returning it because it wasn't worth it, not even for the quality. I purchased the Kodak ESP 7, which seems to be doing the trick. I really like it, although there is a slight difference in the quality, but an average person buying the photograph would never know the difference. The ink is really cheap and seems to go a long way. The only major down fall is that I read reviews online before I purchased it and alot of people said that they couldn't get it to install on their computer so they took it back. I had a problem myself with that issue and it took about 4 hours to get it all set up and working properly, but now its all good! Lindsay
