Digital cameras are great for busy families on the go. You don't have to
worry about running out of film, or accidentally exposing pictures and
ruining them. And since many higher-end digital cameras now include video,
you only have to carry one thing around with you. Now, how do you go about
turning those digital pictures into gorgeous prints? No, you don't have to go
to the drug store and wait. You can just use an HP Photosmart compact photo
printer, at home or on the road.
HP Photosmart compact photo printers are the perfect partner to your digital
camera. The HP Photosmart A536 and A646 print 4 x 6", 5 x 7" and 4 x 12"
panorama photos straight from your camera's memory card. That's right, you
don't even need your computer to act as the go between.
The A646 model also has loads of fun tools that let you edit, correct and
personalize your photos using the printer's touchscreen, all without the need
for a computer. Best of all, compact photo printers are portable printers
designed for easy transport so you can take the printer to parties and other
events and quickly print extra photos for friends and family. Figure 1 shows
