Comments about HiTi P510Si 6" Dye Sub Wireless Photo Printer (US/CA Version):
I purchased this printer for this amount of money and it doesn't come with ink or capability to use it when you receive it. I had ordered what I thought would be extra ink at the same time and it was put on backorder. That has been a few weeks ago and I haven't heard anything sense. I have a photo shoot coming up and no printer to use.

Comments about HiTi P510Si 6" Dye Sub Wireless Photo Printer (US/CA Version):
Quite simply the best investment for my event photography business. Not only is this printer quick, it delivers excellent prints. And the range for the wireless transmittion is also equally excellent. Definitely paid for it self within 2 events. And no matter if you go directly from a computer or wireless you'll be pleased with the speed and color representation this printer delivers.

Comments about HiTi P510Si 6" Dye Sub Wireless Photo Printer (US/CA Version):
This is a great little printer that produces shots with beautiful color. I have used it for a very large annual event where I have to crank out 200+ images each day for presentation boards. While it is a sturdy and reliable machine you have to be careful to not burn it out by printing numerous consecutive images. The only downside to the machine is there is NO way to get it to read Lightroom color profiles and if you have to deal with support, you are dealing with someone in [*] and it is fruitless. You just have to take the extra step and export from Lightroom (if that is your main photo software) and into photoshop to print. It is a bit of a minor inconvenience but not a major problem.
