Friend needs compact printer

[VHockey86]

Friend of mine is interested in buying a new printer that is portable enough for him to take around with moderate ease (thus it needs to be small). I presume print speed and the ability to print photoquality is going to be a factor as well. And heres the kicker, hes looking for something in the price range of 150. I dont really know whats avaiable in the printer market as I dont buy them very often so was hoping someone else would have some suggestions
Thx

Actually what you're talking about is something done since 1992. HP and I think Canon both make prtable printers. HP call's their's mobile printers. Cheapest HP I see is $200. I have an old version of it ( http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en...51-236267.html ) here, and the quality is decent. The speed is not nearly as fast as a desktop, but it's very lightweight and small (aout the size of a larger rectangular CD case). As for color quality I couldn't tell you, since my version is the 1992 one I was talking about, and color was only a pipe dream back then.

I just checked out Canon, and unfortunately, thiers are even more expensive.
