from $145
The P322W 4 x 6" Lightweight Wireless Photo Printer from HiTi is an ultra-compact printer that works in combination with a mobile app or computer software. It prints 4 x 6" color passport photos in your choice of a glossy or matte finish. The emulation for the finish type is selectable via the printer settings and isn't dependent on the paper you use. A single photo is printed in 47 seconds. The printer uses a dye sublimation print method to produce natural colors and skin tones at 300 dpi resolution.
Buy a laser printer unless you regularly print high-quality glossy photos. For high-volume color, consider an ink-tank printer (Megatank/Ecotank) instead of traditional cartridge models to save hundreds on ink. Available from $145.
Inkjet printers have a razor-and-blades model: cheap upfront, but exorbitant ink costs. Laser printers cost more upfront but have a vastly superior and cheaper cost of ownership over their lifespan.
Common Failure Modes
Inkjet printers almost always fail due to dried and clogged printheads from infrequent use. Laser printers are much more robust but may eventually require fuser or drum replacements after thousands of pages.
