Canon Selphy – showing its roots

Saturday, 28. February 2009 9:37

A moment ago, I had to clear an ink sheet jam in my recently acquired Canon Selphy ES30 photo printer. When I opened it up and started poking around I noticed a familiar feature: two little black rollers that everything slides through to make the prints. Eerily similar to the emulsion rollers in my Polaroid 440, which I bought the Selphy to replace.

“The more things change, the more they stay the same.”
