Laser Photo Printer Review - Canon PIXMA IP90 Photo Inkjet Printer

When it comes to laser photo printers, there are good models and then there are some not so great printers. Perhaps one of the better performers on the market is the Canon PIXMA iP90 Photo Inkjet Printer. In this article, we will take a closer look at this laser photo printer and see what it is capable of doing.

When it comes to printing crystal clear photos, dots per inch (DPI) is what matters most. With the Canon photo inkjet printer, you have the ability to go up to a 4800 x 1200 optimized dots per inch in color, and 600 dots per inch in black. Frankly, anything higher than that would be overkill. It has the ability to render pictures as they should be rendered.

Wherever you're printing from, whether at home of the road, the Canon photo inkjet printer is going to give you graphically detailed pictures. The reason why I mentioned printing on the road is because this device is compact and easily portable. Meaning it can be quickly transported to the home office or carried with you as you travel.

Not only is it ideal as a laser photo printer, but you can use it to print reports and other text documents with the professional quality you would find at a print shop. In addition, it comes bundled with software that allows you to print webpages that are automatically formated. This is ideal in those instances where otherwise the right-hand margin would be trimmed off when printing. That's a real pain to say the least.

Another great thing about this laser printer is that it allows you the ability to print a variety of different sizes of borderless prints. It takes you less than a minute to print a 4 x 6 inch photo that will have as much detail as you would see in a traditional photograph.

Perhaps the best feature has to do with it's ability to connect directly to a digital camera or DV camcorder and instantly print photos. As long as you have a PictBridge compatible digital camera you can make this happen. It is just another positive aspect to consider with this Canon printer.

The software that comes with this printer allows you to optimize photos and edit them with a few clicks of a button. Often times adjustments will be made to the pictures to find the optimal tones for printing.

In conclusion, I can give high marks for this laser photo printer from Canon. It is definitely worth checking out.
