The Canon digital printer has built in Wi-Fi for printing and scanning anywhere in your home or office. It also has AirPrint2, which allows your to print from your iPad or iPhone.
Digital inkjet printing works by sending an image or design file directly from a computer to a printer, without needing traditional printing plates . Here’s a simple breakdown of how it works: File Preparation 🖥 The artwork or design is created on a computer. The file (often PDF, TIFF, or JPEG) is processed by specialized software called a RIP (Raster Image Processor), which translates the design into data the printer can understand. Printing Process 🖨️ The printer uses either inkjet or laser technology: Inkjet printers spray liquid ink droplets directly onto the surface (paper, fabric, film, etc.). Laser printers use powdered toner that’s fused to the surface with heat. Direct-to-Material Application 🎨 Unlike traditional methods, digital printing applies ink directly onto the substrate, allowing for full-color, detailed, and customizable prints. Curing or Fixing 🔆 Depending on the printer type, UV light, heat, or pressure may be used to cure (dry and fix) the ink to ensure durability and color vibrancy. Final Output ✅ The result is a high-resolution print that’s ready to use immediately—no plates, no long setup, and ideal for both small batches and on-demand printing. 👉 In short: Digital printing is fast, flexible, and perfect for custom or short-run projects because it removes the setup steps of traditional printing.

It means it's not digital. If you want a printer, just to print, it will be good for you.
Printers that work best with digital cameras would be the Lexmark X4500 Series. Its a nice and reliable brand and has a lot of benefits, such as scanning, copying, faxing, and even has a dock for your digital camera to plug in.
It depends on the portable photo printer, most photo printers work with any digital camera with a USB connection. Old style cameras and disposable cameras will most likely not be compatible with a portable photo printer.
The Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Photo Printer is considered a great photo printer, with quick speed and great ink.
A digital copier differs from an old-style photo-copier in that rather than using a simple photographic process to reproduce the image, a digital copier has a digital scanner coupled to a digital printer. The scanner first takes a digital image of the original and then feeds it to the digital printer to produce the requested number of duplicates. The process is different, but the result is the same. The practical upshot of the digital copier is that it can also be used as a digital scanner or a printer and often even a fax whereas a photocopier is just a copier and nothing else.
If you own a laser printer, you do need to purchase a new cartridge in order for the printer to work. Each printer has specific cartridges that will work with these printers. Pouring in ink into any printer will not work and can potentially break your electronic device.
It will work with any USB printer.
One can learn about digital color printing by reading the user's manual for a digital color printer. A user's manual typically comes in the box of any printer, but if lost, can also be downloaded from the manufacturer's website.
Generally when people talk about 'digital printing' it is in opposition of 'offset printing'. This can be confusing since they both begin with a digital source. Offset printing is the kind of printing that newspapers and magazines use where the print is separated into usually 4 different color plates (hence the word 'offset') whereas 'digital printing' relies on a digital file being sent to a RIP (it processes the file for the printer) then the RIP tells the printer how to squirt the ink onto the paper. No separations are needed for digital prints. The trend in printing is moving away from offset altogether, however offset's strengths have always been incredible speed (of printing) and cost effectiveness. As digital printing advances these differences diminish. HP even has a 'digital offset' printer that works like a modern digital printer, but with the capacity and speed to rival an offset printer.
