The Big Picture

1 minute read

So you’ve captured a few dozen digital snapshots of the family on safari — now what? Try the Canon i9950 — the world’s first eight-color, A3-sized (30 cm by 42 cm) printer, due for release in May. Canon set out to match the color quality of professional printers, but at the more homely price of $549. Most printers at this level rely on six inks, but the i9950 adds extra red and green to improve vibrancy. Meanwhile, the printer delivers borderless A3-sized prints in 65 seconds. If you’re really impatient, you can jack your camera directly into the printer’s USB port and have your walls papered with pictures before you’re even finished reading the manual.
