Need help finding a printer

[de8212]

I am trying to help someone locate a product. It's a small printer that you can put memory cards in to and print pictures from it. I guess it would also hook up to a pc and be able to print from windows?????
I know I have seen them before but I can't find any at bestbuy.com
Anyone have any good links/model numbers/other info on these?

Pretty much all printer manufacturers make printers that can direct print from memory cards. HP, Canon, Epson all got models. Check out their photo printers. Unless you mean the small type photo printers that only print like 4x6 sized. I know canon and HP makes a model.

List of current full-sized printers (not all-in-one) that have memory card slots:

Canon PIXMA i6000D - $179 retail
Epson Stylus Photo R300/R320 -$179/$199 retail
HP Photosmart 8150 - $199 retail
HP Photosmart 8450 - $249 retail

4x6-specific photo printers (all listed have card slots):

Epson PictureMate - $199 retail
HP Photosmart 325 - $149 retail
HP Photosmart 375 - $199 retail
Lexmark P315 - $149 retail

*Canon's 4x6-specific printers are dye-sub models that work with PictBridge cameras. (dye sub = $$$ prints)

If you're looking for a good full-sized model, I recommend Canon and Epson's offerings. HP's consumables are expensive; Canon and Epson produce superior photos for a lower cost.

As far as 4x6-specific printers go, the Epson PictureMate is the best, HANDS DOWN. It guarantees prints for $0.30 each and uses archival pigment inks so your prints will last 100 years behind UV-protected glass (plus, they're smearproof and waterproof - dry instantly out of the printer). They even guarantee that if you don't get at least 100 prints out of their print pack they'll refund the difference plus postage! HP and Lexmark's prints cost significantly more and don't last as long unless you buy their most expensive papers.
