Printing from an xd card

Bit of a weird one - I’m emptying a relatives house and I’ve come across an xd card which might have family photos on it.

No one uses xd cards anymore.

Anyone know of anywhere that has an xd reader ? ( boots don’t)

Got a USB multi-format reader here that has a slot that looks like it might be XD, happy to lend it if you like.

You can get really cheap USB adapters on ebay

Cheers. I was hoping to see if there was anything on it before splurging £5.99 😊

The sentimental value would far outweigh the £5.99 and thus not be a splurge. And in any case you might not be able to rock up to a printers and just ask that they check it.

Hi if you have a timpsons near you with the photo machines you can use sd cards in them, there is one in Asda Hyson green

It doesn’t get into that specific on their website just memory cards but I know it takes sd cards so I thought it might be worth a go if you were in the area

☝️ This. You don't need to print anything, just use to see what's on the card.

Thanks. But xd is really old fashioned.

So old fashioned it looks like I could sell the card for £60 on eBay……lol.

I think the boots print machines used to have XD slots so not sure if they still do, worth checking though!
