Many users print their amateur photographs at home. To do this, you need to have a special printer and photo paper. Modern printers do not even need to be connected to a computer - just insert a USB flash drive or memory card and view the pictures taken on the mini-screen of the printer, selecting good ones for printing. But if you don't have a good printer, choosing one of these is not an easy task.
It is necessary
- - the Internet;
- - a computer.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the amount that you are willing to spend on the purchase of a printer. Do not forget that you will also need photo paper to print photos, and in the future - supplies for the printer itself. Typically, it will take a lot of ink at first as you start printing different photographs. Do not forget about the amount of paper.
Step 2
Check out the forums for tips and opinions from more experienced users. Be sure that you can find a review for any product on the Internet. People buy goods, people share their impressions on the Internet, and you can find information about any device. However, do not rely on one or two opinions - read the reviews on the major brand store forums.
Step 3
Visit the nearest hardware store, consult a seller or a consultant. A product of this kind is often asked, and sellers already have a small consultation on the topic “How to choose a printer” and complete information about the offered product. In addition, you can check in advance the prices and delivery times right in the store. In general, we can say that before buying a printer, you can fully find out all the information about it, that is, both positive and negative sides.
Step 4
Check with your friends. In the modern world, almost every second person has a "home darkroom", so it will be quite easy to get such information. Ask a friend to visit the hardware store with you. Summarize the information received and make your choice. Do not rush to decide - a photo printer will be more optimal, which has the best combination of parameters such as print quality, cost of consumables, print speed, print format, and so on.
