I would highly recommend the purchase of this outstanding printer!

The first time that I used my photo printer I was amazed that the photo's came out so clear and DRY! The next week as I was in a local electronics store purchasing more processing equipment I saw a man in line preparing to purchase the same printer that I own and I told him that he would be more than satisfied with the results from the item he selected, he thanked me for giving him the insight of a satisfied customer with the same item

Quite a bit heavier than i thought this size printer would be, so not as handy for traveling with. Also the paper feed doesn't want to route the paper through unless it is a full tray, so you have to bolster the tray to make it flow.
Switching from printing one photo per page to several per page is a bit tricky.
I had planned on taking this printer on vacations with me to use as references to paint from, but because of it's weight won't be doing that.
i would not buy this product again.

I was so disappointed with this photo printer. I had it less than 48 hrs before I returned it... broken! A few pics printed out good - nice quality and great color. The rest looked like negatives. In fact, every other picture looked like negatives. I had to manually take out the photo cartridge and advance it to get it to print good quality - then the photo cartridge got stuck in the printer mid-picture. It was a disaster. The LCD screen is fuzzy and you can't see the quality of the picture until after it prints. Changing the photo cartridge every 40 pictures is unrealistic - it said my photo cartridge was out after just 5 pictures. And it prints funny - it prints first in just yellow, then sucks the picture back in and reprints with red over the yellow. Then it sucks it back in and adds more colors... then it sucks it back in AGAIN to add more color. I was really disappointed in how complicated the process was for this printer and the horrible quality of photos. I returned it for an Epson Picture Mate.
