Thanks for the information. I knew we can bring a thumb drive (or most forms of removable media) to print out, but I didn’t know “NetPrint.” Thanks for the information.

you can send your friend the photo file by email and he can take it on a usb thumb drive / memory card to any number of photo-print booth and get a pretty good print at any size needed in less than an hour

In Sweden at the moment but need to get a photo to my friend in Tokyo for an application that have it's dead-line on Friday. I would have sent it by snail-mail but certain vulcanos got in the way... The photo needs to be printed on photo paper (the glossy thingy). Does anyone know if that would be possible at the 7-11 stores or can things just be printed on normal papers?

Thank you so much! Even though the machine had a USB port which no other sites seem to mention and I could have used, after i eventually signed up - fantastic. Awesome! Thank you so much!

I had even changed the file name to a Japanese one but it seems to be able to read the contents of the file and because it was all in English, it wouldn't accept it. Looks like I'm off to Fedex to get my printing done instead. I guess if you're printing pictures or Japanese documents, then by all means, this is an excellent service.
