Default Tech advice needed please?
I want to buy a printer that I can connect to my Samsung phone and print colour photographs with?

I don't know what to specifically search for? It's so confusing. Everything seems so expensive? I need a pre owned one maybe?

Anyone technically minded who can point me in the right direction?

Thank you.

You can use any colour printer but get some good photo paper.
You can buy wireless photo printers too.

Cheaper option is to use something like freeprints. You get 45 pics free per month and just pay for delivery

…when I print photographs from my phone, I just tend to go to Boots photo service, which is obviously instant…(..there are other places both on and offline that do similar…)…but the quality of pics at Boots has always been good for me…

Thanks ladies. We did want to print them at home but I'll consider those options.

Lol....I had a bad accident when I was about 7....next door was having a new fence put in and the place where the panel goes had been a "cut through" for us for years. I ran full pelt into a rope cut all my neck and it threw me backwards and knocked me out. I got checked out and all fine bat big lump and headache but I had a dance show that night and my Dad was all about never letting anyone down. He promised if I danced he would get me a new barbie. I asked and asked and finally got it off him......for my 30th!!! It has pride of place on a shelf in my bedroom now

Sounds like...

A Both our Dads should have been wearing capes of some kind, and...
B We both need some kind of talking therapy.
