Canon Selphy CP730 Compact Photo Printer Review
by Tom Warhol

Navigation



Formats / Compatibility (7)
The CP730 is PictBridge and DPOF compatible and supports Canon Direct Print from Canon PowerShot digital cameras that have Digic II image processors.


Media Slots (6)
The Canon Selphy CP730 has three memory card slots on its front for Memory Stick, Secure Digital, and CompactFlash media. There isn’t a slot for xD-Picture cards, which are used on Olympus and most Fujifilm digital cameras. The slots themselves are exposed, leaving them vulnerable to dust, dirt, debris, chewing gum, and Play-Doh.

Wireless interface (6)
This photo printer comes equipped with an infrared sensor to receive signals from an IrDA-enabled camera phone. The sensor lies behind a black, glossy, plastic window to the left of the media card slots. The CP730 can also receive photos wirelessly from a Bluetooth-enabled device with the purchase of the optional Bluetooth unit (BU-20).

The printer can also print over a wireless LAN (local area network) from the Canon PowerShot SD430 Digital ELPH Wireless/Digital IXUS WIRELESS camera using a wireless print adapter.

Network (6)
As with most compact photo printers, the CP730 is not equipped for general network printing, although as stated above in the Wireless Interface section, it can print via a wireless LAN from the Digital ELPH.
