Olympus P10 printer
My father bought himself the dye-sub P10 printer from Olympus. He was very
pleased with the speed and output quality and recommended it to me for printing 4x6's instead of using my regular stylus photo printer. Since mostly I print 4x6, I may as well give these little printers a shot and see how it works out. It also supports PictBridge and so does my new camera. Some thing else I'm really looking forward to using. The printer does not have an LCD or a card slot...so it forces you to use your camera with it, but the printer was only $150. |

But, then, I bought my wife's little Kodak with their Dock 6000 that mounts her Kodak $150 6330 P & S so she could print straight from the camera, and it's a printer steal for another $150 (although 65 cents a print is a bite!). -- ATM, aka Jerry Rivers |

Yes, it comes about 55cents a print...but prints you want. With a photo
center/lab you get them all and pay for them all. I still haven't received mine yet, but can't wait to try it out and use it. Although there are/were rare times I want to print larger then 4x6.

All the labs here in Austrlia do only the prints you want at 39 - 49 cents per print that would be about 30-40 cents per print for full chemical prints. |

Well, in NJ it's all or nothing. There isn't such a thing about customer
service or customer satisfaction in this state. Also, if you even try to tell a person working at the photolab place you would confuse them as all hell anyway to begin with since most employees of companies around here are incompetent. I have yet to visit a store in the last few years in this state and actually talk to some one who knew what the hell was going on. It sounds bad, but when I know more about a product then the person working there, there's some thing wrong. I don't go to stores anymore and ask questions. Those days are over. A 19 year old kid isn't going to know the battery life on a certain battery...why? Because they could care less and the owners of the store only hire cheap. I am real sorry this post sounds so negative...but it's really true. A few examples of some stores I've been to in the past are Compusa, Staples, Officemax, BestBuy, CircuitCity, etc....and there are others. I've went shopping for quite a bit in the last couple of years and lemme tell ya...asking questions at any of these stores usually come back with, "I don't know", or some 19 year old telling you the first thing that pops into his head when it's right or wrong. So now, when I want to buy some thing like a TV for example I will do ALL my research online. I will find out about what I don't know and have to learn. I will teach myself the jargon, the technology and how it works. I will inform and teach myself to the point where I know what I want and go out looking for it. And then to have a 19 year old sales boy tell me about a product that's wrong anyway and indicate I am still wrong anyway really ****es me off. Large companies these days just hire cheap and could care less about training the employees or informing them about the products they sell. "Pete D" wrote in message ...

Yeah, besides my wife wanting to print quickly and simply without having to load the memory card, schepp on over to WalMart and didle with the kiosk (guess who'd really wind up doing that?), she finds out right away if the pic is OK. For the number she prints, its way more cost effective than 25-30 cents at a "lab". I've searched around locally and not found any good prices on Kodak's paper/"ink" packs, Googled some, etc., and haven't been able to crack $24.99 + $1.50 Michigan sales tax on a 40-pack, so I'm at about 65 cents. But, and this is a major biggie with my wife, the Kodak prints are 100% water-safe, and they look GOOD! -- ATM, aka Jerry Rivers |
