Photo printer for a digital camera?
I own a Fujifilm A220 12mp digital camera. I want to print prictures straight from the camera. I think I need something called a docking station. Can someone tell me how to find one and if that's not what I need can you tell me what I do need to print pictures straight from the camera?

The little 4x6 printers that you refer to are gone from the market place. The idea was great. Shoot pictures, insert memory card, Print an index print and then print just the 4x6 prints you wanted. The quality was excellent! However the ink supply did not last and the ink cartridges are expensive.Do you shoot enough digital pictures to equal one roll of film (20-24 exposures) a week? Neither did I. I purchased one of these printers when they first came out @ $200.00. I found myself replacing the ink cartridge ($30) much sooner than developing 100 prints that the cartridge was supposed to yield. The result is, you, I, and others will have to go to our favorite one-hour processor, get a latte or shop until our prints are done. I saw these printers drop in price to $69.00 and then they disappeared from the market place.

The reason is this. If you have photos that are out of focus, poorly lit, etc., you're going to waste a lot of printer paper finding this out.
