United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, 10 June 2009.
Canon is putting the fun into photo printing with the introduction of the
SELPHY CP790 – a smart, compact photo printer that makes it easier than ever
to produce lab-quality prints.
The SELPHY CP790 is smartly designed for maximum
ease-of-use and convenience. A large 3.0” LCD display and Canon’s
Easy-Scroll Wheel makes it simple, quick and easy to set-up, navigate and
enjoy. The SELPHY CP790 incorporates a range of fun templates and layouts so
users of all ages can customise their images creatively, whilst Automatic
Image Correction features ensure that stunning lab-quality images are
effortlessly produced.
“Canon has always made it easy to produce lab-quality
photos,“ said Rainer Feuhres, head of Canon Consumer Imaging, “but the
latest SELPHY printer takes it to a whole new level. Convenient, smart,
simple and fun, the SELPHY CP790 is a great photo printer for everyone - and
at a price families can afford.”
With an integrated carrying handle, storage basket and
optional battery pack, the SELPHY CP790 also enables users to print wherever
they are – no PC required.
Smart printing made simple
The SELPHY CP790 comes with everything needed to
produce lab-quality photos simply and quickly. The angled 3.0” LCD display
and Easy Scroll Wheel make it simple to operate. A built-in PictBridge port
and memory card slots make it easy to print directly from a wide range of
digital cameras and memory cards – so there’s no need to connect the SELPHY
CP790 to a computer. Users can even produce prints directly from their
mobile phones via Infra-red or an optional Bluetooth adapter.
The SELPHY CP790 is fast, flexible and fun, producing
lab quality postcard sized prints in as little as 47 seconds, while a range
of optional paper cassettes enable everyone to produce L, Wide, Credit Card
Size and Mini Size stickers as well. The SELPHY CP790 uses a dye-sublimation
printing process to produce smooth, lab-quality photo prints; with a special
coating also ensures they’re protected from spills, splashes and smudges.
With lasting quality - each print should last for up to 100 years when
stored in an album –the SELPHY CP790 is a great way to preserve precious
family memories.
The SELPHY CP790 also includes a range of Automatic
Image Correction functions, such as Red-Eye Correction, Skin Tone
optimisation and Noise Reduction that automatically enhances the quality of
the photos. The My Colors option also enables users to quickly add special
effects such as Sepia, Vivid, Positive Film and Black & White to their
prints.
Creative fun for your photos
Families can personalise their photos using a range of
creative functions that are built into the SELPHY CP790. Photo Diary enables
users to insert their photos into a range of six different diary layouts,
with dedicated areas for text, a choice of six background colours and 17
different fun stamps. Images placed in Photo Diary layouts can be trimmed,
cropped and enhanced, while the image shooting date can be taken from an
image and placed in the layout.
The SELPHY Photo Print software bundle for Mac and PC
has been smartly designed to assist users through the printing process on
screen and via voice guidance instructions.
Stylish and compact, simple and smart, the SELPHY
CP790 makes it easy for anyone to produce lab-quality photos whatever their
level of expertise. With its range of creative functions and convenient
features, it is also ideal for families who want to enjoy creating together,
whilst sharing precious memories.
