Customer Reviews

Superb Printer
I just received this yesterday and i am amazed at the quality of the prints it produces. As good if not better than you would get from a high street or online print facility. The printer works on a dye rather than ink process and the paper passes through the printer 4 times (each of the 3 colours and a glossy coat) to create the finished product.

I cannot use pictbridge with my new camera as it is a samsung but my nikon works perfectly. Pictbridge is like a mini firewire/usb port at the front of the printer. But the SD card works in the defined slot. And there is usb ports on the side of the printer.

I think the previous reviewer mentioned that they have a fuji camera and they use the XD card (if i am right). XD cards can be a problem as they are generally not well supported .

Have not connected printer to my computer yet but you do not need to as the colour lcd screen on the printer shows you the images that you can print from your memory card.

Fantasic Value for Money - Great prints
I brought this printer for my Mother for her birthday. It needed to be small, easy to use with great prints.

I used it this weekend with my Mother - and it is great.

Easy to put together and use. Its so small you can take it anywhere - even on holiday.

The quality of print was as good as any photo shop and for under £50 what more do you want.

You can either print by connecting the camera by the lead on the printer, via the memory card slot or by the computer. The screen is not big on the printer itself but good enough - as you can view photos on you computer.

Reading the other reviews I understand that some people feel it takes time for the photo to print - for me it was very quick and considering you can take a picture then print it instantly - what more do you want.

The photo paper does have the postcard backing - but correct me if I am wrong - you are viewing the photo not the back of the photo!

I worked it out to be 14p per print - depending on where you buy the paper/ink set.

I loved this printer so much I will be getting myself one.

Top Quality
This little gadget is truly amazing. The quality of the photos is excellent and it is so easy to use. This past week I've taken and printed over a hundred photos of my grandchildren while they were visiting and I've got memories to last till their next visit. It is a sturdy machine, quick and quiet and, if an oldie like me can use it, then it's a piece of cake for anyone else.
