Default printer for events

If you were to choose a printer for use at events

IE, take the shot & print the shot immediate;ley on site in sizes of
:wallet, 4X6, 5X7 & 8x12”

Reasonably high volume, but “portable” enough to actually move around.

What have you seen or used and what can you suggest?
I have no idea about printers so any direction appreciated.


i dont mind re-filling paper trays and ink cartridges, but it needs to be fast, and portable.

thanks

I use Shinko 8" dye-sub printer.

300 dpi, 30 seconds per print, 120 prints per hour, 8x12 borderless, 280 prints per roll.
