RE: Bargain (tm) printer?

["Phil Harris" <phil@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Also if you *ARE* wanting to print direct from memory cards then take one
o=
f
your cards in to check the printer will read it - I tried to get some
pictures out of an HP (can't remember the number) a few weeks ago and it
would happily read the CF cards from my wifes Nikon Coolpix 3100 and from
Demon Spawns Nikon Coolpix 2000 but the 1Gb CFII Microdrive out of my EOS
300D crashed the printer. (The Microdrive works fine in my card readers and
PCMCIA adapters.)
