Canon surprised everyone tonight by releasing... a portable printer? Tucked between the release of an affordable RF Mount lens, a new Canon Rebel DSLR, and a full-frame mirrorless monster, was the launch of the Selphy Square: a pocket-sized photo printer that'll take on Fuji's Instax Share SP-3.

Canon's Selphy line of compact photo printers use cartridges that contain both paper and ink, allowing you to use your digital camera or smartphone like an instant camera while you're out and about. There's one thing you might not know about the cartridges, though: empty cartridges contain faint copies of the photos that were printed.
