Dell 540 User Manual

Dell Photo Printer 540

The Dell Photo Printer 540 produces photo-lab-quality prints that last a lifetime. The 540 is a fast, convenient photo printer that works with popular digital cameras or with a PC.

Whether standalone or connected to a PC, the 540 is easy to use and highly portable. Using the latest Thermal Dye Sublimation printing technology (a multi-pass process of laying colour on paper using heating elements to create accurate continuous colour tones), the 540’s photo output matches the quality of photo lab prints. A Clear Life Coating™ also seals each photo, protecting it against smudges and water.

Continuous-tone prints are sharper and crisper than standard inkjet photo prints, which are also prone to smudging and water damage. The 540 is an ideal solution for photographic enthusiasts and anyone who wants professionallooking prints that enhance the subject matter and can be proudly displayed in the home or exhibited.
