Pictbridge Printers
Pictbridge printers allow you to connect a Pictbridge digital camera to the Pictbridge printer and print photos easily, for more information of Pictbridge digital cameras see the Pictbridge Digital Cameras page.
If you have a digital camera that has the Pictbridge technology then it is a very good idea to buy a printer that also supports Pictbridge, this will allow you to print photos easily without the need for connecting the digital camera to a computer and then printing the photo through the computer. Pictbridge printers use a simple USB cable to connect to the camera and all of the connection is automatic, you will be presented with a menu on the LCD screen on the camera so it is very easy to print using a Pictbridge printer.
The main thing to look for when buying a Pictbridge printer is the resolution of the printer, this dictates the quality of the images and states the number of pixels that the printer used when printing the photo. The higher the resolution (or the more pixels) the printer has the more detail the printer will be able to use when printing the photos so you should always get a Pictbridge printer with the highest resolution that you can, this will ensure the highest printing quality possible. The resolution is usually stated like 4,800 x 1,200 DPI with DPI standing for Dots Per Inch so the higher the numbers of the DPI the better the quality of the photo printed will be. There are also some other things to look out for, photo quality usually just states that the Pictbridge printer is of a high resolution but photo quality paper can make a difference, especially if you would like a glossy finnish. The speed at which the printer prints is also worth looking at as some can be very slow, the speed is usually stated in PPM which stands for Pages Per Minute with black and white usually being quicker than colour printing.
