Print heads with six thousand or more nozzles are common in today's printers. Nozzle system that ejects consistent, prescribed-volume ink droplets in sizes as small as 2 picoliters, these printers deliver professional photo quality results. The i455 and i475D printers also feature true edge-to-edge borderless printing in 4x6, 5x7 and 8.5x11 inch sizes, and can easily serve as an every day, all-purpose printer with a top speed of up to 18 pages-per-minute (ppm (Pages Per Minute) The measurement of printer speed.

PictBridge Compatibility Among the significant technological advances found on the i455 Desktop Photo Printer and i475D Desktop Photo Printer is the inclusion of the new PictBridge technology standard. The new industry standard for digital printers, digital cameras and digital camcorders, PictBridge allows the direct printing of images from PictBridge compatible digital cameras and camcorders to PictBridge compatible printers, regardless of brand or manufacturer without the use of a computer. Software Simplicity In addition to PictBridge direct printing capabilities both the i455 and i475D printers include Easy-PhotoPrint(4) (an ExifPrint compatible application) and Easy-WebPrint(5) software. The Easy-PhotoPrint software allows users to print high quality digital photographs quickly and easily by automatically sizing digital images to print borderlessly on 4x6, 5x7 and 8.5x11 inch paper solving the aspect ratio dilemma. Easy-PhotoPrint also improves digital image quality by eliminating "photo noise" and enhancing color saturation saturation, of an organic compound saturation, of an organic compound, condition occurring when its molecules contain no double or triple bonds and thus cannot undergo addition reactions. with the "Vivid Photo" driver enhancements.
