The innovative and affordable Canon PIXMA iP4820 Premium Inkjet Photo Printer is a fantastic printing solution for everyday photo and document printing with added functionality to keep your creative juices flowing.
Does this scenario sound familiar? You are capturing fantastic HD movie images with your Canon DSLR or point and shoot of a once-in-a-lifetime moment...your baby taking first steps and the reaction to his or her major milestone. However, you want to share this moment but have no still image to print and mail out to your parents or save in your photo album. Well, the iP4820 solves the problem. Utilizing the printer's Full HD Movie Print software you can now turn your movie clips into beautiful prints.
The ChromaLife 100+ ink cartridge system is comprised of four dye-based inks and a pigment-based black ink to yield vivid colors and bold, black text that can last a lifetime. The iP4820 outputs photos at resolutions up to 9600 x 2400 dpi color. Plus it is quick...a photo lab-quality 4 x 6" borderless print takes only about 20 seconds and it can deliver a letter sized photo or document in as fast as 9.3 ipm.
The iP4820 has a USB 2.0 port conveniently located on its front panel for printing photos directly from a PictBridge-compatible digital camera or camera phone without a computer. For enhanced creative possibilities and paper-saving, the iP4820 has a built-in auto duplex (two-sided) printing function.
The iP4820 is the ideal color printer for everyday document and photo printing including school projects, reports, calendars and HD movie images you can hold in your hand.
Supported paper types for borderless printing are as follows: Photo Paper Pro Platinum, Photo Paper Plus Glossy II, Photo Paper Plus Semi-gloss, Photo Paper Glossy and Matte Photo Paper.
Based on accelerated testing by Canon in dark storage under controlled temperature, humidity and gas conditions, simulating storage in an album with plastic sleeves. 3
