Canon Selphy DS-810 review: Canon Selphy DS-810

 

Canon Selphy DS-810

Easy to operate; 2.5-inch LCD; built-in memory-card reader; Mac and Windows compatible.

Mediocre output quality; no battery option; printhead nozzles require frequent cleaning.

Although inexpensive to operate and easy to use, the Canon Selphy DS810's mediocre output limits this compact photo printer's appeal for serious photo enthusiasts.

Two competing technologies neatly divide the world of dedicated photo printers: thermal dye, which tends to provide greater portability, and ink jet, which usually offers a lower cost per print. Canon is one of the few manufacturers that will happily...

Prints from computers, memory cards, and PictBridge cameras. Easy to set up and use. Once dry, output is smudgeproof, waterproof, and, for most output, true photo quality

Cost per print varies significantly depending on which paper you use, with Canon's best-quality paper costing as much 45 cents per print for the paper alone

The Canon Selphy DS810, which can print up to 4- by 8-inch output from computers, cameras, or memory cards, lets you choose between printing reasonably high-quality photos quickly for as little as 29 cents each, or higher-quality photos that take twice...

OKI C5200n

 

Built around an LED engine, the OKI C5200n ($800 street) is one of the few inexpensive color laser printers that offers single-pass printing and the speed that goes with it. It also offers some unusual but welcome touches, such as banner printing (8.5...

Fast performance for the price. Excellent text quality. Banner printing. Network connector included. Optional duplexer available

Graphics and photo quality are below par. Slows down for color printing despite the single-pass engine

The OKI C5200's paper handling is better than that found on most inexpensive color lasers, with banner printing, an optional duplexer, and paper tray options that boost capacity to 930 pages. The 5200 also offers excellent text quality and performance...

Canon SELPHY DS810 InkJet Photo Printer

 

Compact, portable, and provides good quality photos

Sometimes makes photos dark and leaves big ink drops on photos

Good photo printer for starters, but not good enough if you print lots of photos.

Canon Selphy DS810 photo printer

 

Compact photo printers like the Canon Selphy DS810 are aimed at people who would rather push a button on the go and get great prints instantly.

Inexpensive

No way to print black-and-white photos without using a computer ; dull prints when printing from a camera card ; images lose shadow detail when printed from Mac or PictBridge ; no battery option

There are three ways to print your digital camera files on the Selphy DS810. It has a USB port on the back to connect to your Mac, a PictBridge USB port on the front for connecting a compatible digital camera, and card slots that fit many types of...

Easy to operate ; 2.5-inch LCD ; Built-in memory-card reader ; Mac and Windows compatible

Mediocre output quality ; No battery option ; Printhead nozzles require frequent cleaning

Disappointing output quality mars the appeal of the cost-effective and fast Canon Selphy DS810, which has little else to recommend it over the competition.

Canon Selphy DS810

 

So what is Selphy, it is a photo printer that prints 15x10cm images. Like most other inkjet manufacturers Canon have a unit, however in shape anyway is rather different.

It is 22x22x10cm in the closed position, it weights less than two kilos. However not only will you need around 10cm of space in front when in use as paper is stored and delivered at the front of the unit. You also need to allow close to 10cm behind as...
