Great little printer

May 14, 2008 - By R. A. Shacklock (Onchan, Isle of Man United Kingdom)

At the time I write this review this printer is far cheaper when bought direct from Amazon rather than from third parties on the website.

I've not had one of these little photo printers before, and have spent plenty of time wrestling with full size printers trying to get them to print photos the way I want. I'm very pleased with how easy things are on the PictureMate. Very quick to set up, and quick and clean to load the ink cartridge. The printer just accepts images from memory cards, computer, or camera without any fuss - it would be hard to go wrong. The photos were very good quality 'straight from the box' but it pays to also have a look at the menu options listed in the printed manual. You can make your photos a bit sharper or the colour a bit stronger etc. if you want. It comes with a reasonable amount of paper and ink to start you off. Subsequently you buy the paper and ink cartridge as a pack and each photo will cost about 20p.

There is no cable supplied to connect the printer to a computer and, of course, you are limited to 6 x 4in prints. That said, I'm very pleased with my purchase and would happily make the same choice again. Should have bought one ages ago!
