When I recently bought a digital camera for the first time I was worried about getting prints. After trying shops with printing facilities I found these quite expensive and decided to do my own. The Epson PictureMate 100 had everything I needed. Not only is it compact but the instructions are easy to follow and the picture quality is brilliant. Not being very good with 'gadgets' this was important to me. This was certainly one of my best buys - Thanks Epson

I cannot get over just how good this machine is. I am not very good a setting up electronic gadgets but this was so easy that I was printing pictures of superb quality minutes after taking it out of the box. If I can do it there is hope for everyone! What I really like is the fact that I do not have to drive into town, leave a disc and then pick up the prints the next day. Also as we travel a lot in our motorhome I will never have to buy overpriced postcards again!
Highly recommended.

After looking for a photo printer for weeks & having looked at endless reviews i purchased the Epson Picturemate 100 and anyone else who is looking for the PHOTO Printer should seriously consider the Epson?When i received the printer the instructions were easy to follow which was nice for a change & all the photos i had taken over christmas look as though they had been developed at a photo shop,Also i ordered the picturepack ref T5730.just for reference i used a fuji A345 digital camera with 4 million pixels

The good news. A great printer, quality is better than I have ever obtained from commercial developers. The bluetooth dongle they supply is very expensive so I tried mine and it works fine so I can now print pictures direct from my pda.
The bad news, the ink cartridge supplied with the printer only printed about twenty pictures not the 100 odd advertised. A big disappointment.
Next I went to my local Epson dealer to get a new ink cartidge.
Told them I had a Picturemate 100 and they said no problem and sold me a Picturemate cartridge and paper. Unfortunately the cartridge does not fit in the Picturemate 100! After an extensive search of the web I find that there is a special refill pack the T5730 Picturemate picturepack for the Picturemate 100. The bad news is that both my local Epson dealers had never heard of it!!

10 out of 10. got one for christmas from my wife.compact,easy to use,fantastic pictures very pleased.
