I had a 90s dye sublimation printer called a Techtronix Phaser, that used 4 (CYMK) blocks of wax "dye" to do AMAZING prints, that had the continuous tone and photo quality of the photos that Clint showed in the video. It was the size of desktop copier and smelled like burning crayons, but man did it print great looking stuff that I believe would still look decent today. It was also nearly $9000 :) but I didn't pay for it, I got it from a bankruptcy sale of a print shop for free, in exchange for making their web site (too late to save them). I did not keep it for long due to the burned crayon smell and the wax blocks and paper was killing me in supply costs.

My mom was a professional photographer in the late 90s. She had something similar to this. She used an expensive medium format camera for the serious photos at weddings and for portraits. But she also carried an early digital camera and a portable printer that she could use at the reception to grab photos of guests and whatnot. She could then print photos right there on the spot for people to take home. Her printer was a lot smaller than this one. I am pretty sure it was ink jet and only printed wallets and 4x6 or 5x7s.

In the late 1990s I was working as a computer magazine journalist. I undertook a group test review of lots of colour inkjet printers, and one test was photo print quality. The ideal of saving money and time on getting "professional photo prints" was very alluring for many. In my testing I learned that, to match 35mm photo print quality, you usually had to match the manufacturer's own brand of premium photo printer paper to their own printer, and then select to print at high quality (so, usually, very slow - it could take several minutes to output). And then your print had a limited life span because, ultimately, it was just ink on paper. They were very prone to UV light damage meaning that, if you pinned one to a refrigerator (for example), light coming in from the window would slowly bleach out all the colour over the space of a year or two. Only cyan would stick around, if I recall correctly. I'm actually not sure if things are better right now. Back then, we all considered dye sublimation printing technology to be the best for photos - but it was many times the cost of the cheap inkjets that were flooding the market.
@IgnatSolovey
11 ай бұрын
Dye sublimation technology (it's Mitsubishi ALPS originally, everyone else licensed it, including Sony and Canon) is still really good, it's the only printing technology that allows to reproduce full sRGB range in print - and considering that some, if not all, implementations include the “fifth dye”, which is an anti-UV protection layer, they are probably the longest lasting form of color photographs, apart from plasticized prints that are sandwiched between a sheet of Alubond and a sheet of UV-stable acrylic (and that costs... no... T.H.A.T. C.O.S.T.S.). That puts properly processed Kodachromes that are stored in national archives like the LOC or BNA to a third place, because plastic sheets with UV protection layer are much more stable medium than a celluloid film or even an offset paper and ink (those discolored 1960s...2000s magazines, aha). There are two problems with dye-sub prints. First, the largest format of DSPs ever available was and is 21×30 cm (only Mitsubishi and Sony did that, not Canon). Second, they are quite sensitive to dust before and during printing, Canon in particular.

When you take photos with it, you can hear the CD spinning up and the read/write head activating. The photo quality was exceptional for the time and still looks impressive. Paired with a good inkjet printer, it rivals film camera prints of the day. I have dozens of the 8cm discs with my photos. They are still readable to this day.

Even as a 35mm film camera enthusiast, who will regularly spend $16 for a roll of film and then $25 developing and scanning it at a lab, for a cost of $1.15 per photo, it's still crazy to me to think that just taking a picture wasn't free for so many decades. When I'm taking film pictures, I'm trying to compose art, it's not like just grabbing my phone and getting a picture for posterity. The idea that it was costly to recall images through photographs for just, the general everyday life we experience, it's crazy. Taking a photo being a free thing now makes it a shortcut for so much. Want to remember what this restaurant has on its menu? Picture. Forgot to take notes on the slide and the presenter is about to switch slides? photo. Want to record the odometer reading at the oil change you just did? photo. Your odometer hit a palendrome? photo to show your friends. If each of those cost $2 we wouldn't use them for everything like we do now.

I bet if a functional consumer-equivalent of QR codes existed in the 90s you'd have to take a picture of the pattern, develop it, mail it to the company, and wait for a response. Even less than 10 years after I worked at Walmart they've switched from scan guns to smart phones for reading the shelf labels Tangentially related: I remember when I was really into cinematography and video editing stuff I wanted to get one of those home camera negative scanners. I'd usually just resort to a flatbed scanner though

Interesting to hear the PS 'Beeps' with something before they were used for the PS; and they've stuck with them all these years later!🎵

Seeing you talk about photo printers makes me hope you consider covering different types of Zink printers. I have an old Polaroid Pogo that still works and it's still a ton of fun to use even today. Even if it needs to be plugged into a wall due to the proprietary battery being bad

Something I'd actually love to cover is the Polaroid i-Zone, which functioned as sort of a predecessor to Zink cameras. Unfortunately can't source _any_ of the film anymore and all of the old stock stuff is long expired!

That color quality is impressive can you imagine doing that in 1999 people would be shocked to see you printing glossy images like that at home.

As always. Us being men of similar age and homeschooled in the US, I always feel that nostalgia of a time I’ve known, but my family never was in a place to get this stuff. You get it and I support you. Thank you, Clint. I genuinely love the heck out of you and you make my day always. Keep it up!

I have the Kodak version of this kind of printer. It has a dock on top for my Kodak digital camera to sit on, and I would use the camera screen to select and print. It used the same type of print tech and makes excellent pictures. It does borderless prints. I have a 4 megapixel camera for it with 10 optical zoom.

late 90's early 00's I worked at as a Walmart 1hr photo developer. We had got the new frontier digital photo printing system that took the digital content and created photos through the same system as our 35mm. It was and still is the best digital printing you could get. It took high res photos from your digital camera and projected it onto real photo paper that was chemically processed. In high school I was very involved in the technology teams and we had several of the sony mavica cameras because of the easy and cheap floppies that we used to take photos for newsletters, our first school website (that I built), and even to use for our yearbook. If you take my school yearbooks from 99-01 99% of the photos were all taken by that Sony Camera. I carried at least a pack of 50 in my camera bag for every event.
