Description:

The Canon CD-300 prints your images directly from many models of digital cameras without requiring you to first transfer the data to a computer. Plus, it features high-speed 300 dpi photo-quality resolution. With its moving-film carriage, the CD-300 prints up to 256 shades of cyan, then magenta, followed by yellow, and then it prints a protective ultraviolet layer to prevent image fading. The UV coating also extends the archival status of your prints by protecting them from moisture, fingerprints, and scratches. The CD-300 prints borderless (full bleed) postcard size, 4-by-6, and 4-by-10 panoramas. It use a dye-sublimation transfer technology that prints with high resolution to produce top-quality prints with the ready convenience of printing in your own studio, fully in control of the results.

The CD-300 is automatic and easy to use when working with images from 35mm mounted slide film, strip film, color/monochrome, positives and negatives, and APS IX240 cartridges, and whether or not it is connected to your computer. It also accepts Type I and II CompactFlash, PCMCIA-ATA Type II, video, and S-video inputs. The CD-300 supports JPEG and JFIF file formats.

With print speeds of up to 3 minutes per sheet and printing modes of high quality and panorama, you can determine the degree of quality and speed when producing your own photo prints. Easy-to-use controls located on the front of the unit include the power button, control panel, paper cassette inlet, ink cassette door, CF card slot, PC Card slot, and video-in jack, making it simpler to insert or remove memory cards, paper cassettes, and the ink cassette. Each cassette yields up to 36 sheets. The Canon CD-300 is compact, with dimensions just under 10 by 4 by 11 inches, and weighs approximately 6 pounds. --Barbara Price
