Praise#2: You can see the photo you are about to print on the screen.Praise#3: You can send your photos to the printer in a many different ways (direct from camera, from memory card, via computer). Complaint #2: The paper tray is hard to keep in correct alignment. Praise#1: The ink/paper packs print exactly the number of prints they claim, due to how the technology works. Complaint #3: The ink/paper that comes with the printer is only enough for 5 prints.
This printer makes a photo print in less than 1 minute and the quality is pretty good. Praise#4: The printer is very portable and compact. You will know the exact cost per print depending on how much you pay for the ink/paper pack. We noticed the color is a bit off from true color, but if you want truly accurate color reproduction, go to a photo lab.
So you need to immediately buy more ink/paper. Easy to put away when not in use. Complaint #1: You need to be careful about getting dust in the printer and on the paper, because any dust/lint/hair will stay on the prints. If you don't get it just right, it won't print.
I have printed over a hundered prints with mine and never had a jam. With the ribbon technology in this printer, I get perfect prints in seconds with a clear coat over them that keeps them from running or smudging. When I saw the prints from hers, I had to get one for myself.
I have printed prints off several brands of inkjet printers and have always had problems getting the print tones correct from one to another. Never a bad print. I end up wasting pages of photo paper and tons of ink trying to get it right.
We original bought a lower model of the selphy for our daughter. I have seen the paper on retail shelves in office stores such as staples, but have found the prices online to be cheaper (about.23/print on amazon).The ribbon technology in this printer is what sold it for me. With the ribbon technology, you always know how many prints you will get - don't need to guess if you have enough red or yellow ink left to print another print.My only regret is that Canon doesn't have a printer that prints larger prints with this same technology.
This printer is simple to use (comes with nice little editing program), very portable and prints great prints.I've seen reviews saying it jams alot and complaints about the availabilty of the paper. Paper is available in 4x6, a credit card size (great for wallet photos) and even little stickers (fun for kids).
Then printed an indoor photo which came out too dark. No parts for this printer so they sent me a replacement.
Waiting for a return label (3 days now) so that I can send it in. Replacement printed a few pictures, which were even darker than the original printer, and then jammed.
Thought a made a good choice with my first sublime printer. They said send it in for repairs.
While I was on the phone with tech support found out that sublime printers don't have ICC profiles only ink jet printers. First couple of prints were pretty good.
Couldn't find the ICC profile to try and correct for differences in displays so I contacted tech service.
(The film was stuck onto the paper) Thus, the entire cartridge was wasted just because of one jam. The only way to take it out was to break the ink cartridge film. It's just not worth it. Ok, this was my fault for not being careful, but still. When I tried to print an additional photo on the blank half of a used photopaper, the ink cartridge and paper jammed.
The Canon printer produced prints with a green cast. I had a difficult time finding stores that carry the paper/ink for this model.The printer has a number of useful features but it all comes down to the print quality which doesn't compare to other printers on the market. The quality of prints from this printer is disappointing. Skin tones did not look natural.Worthy to note that this printer does not include a printer cable to connect to a computer.As noted by other reviewers you only can print five prints out of the box. Keep looking, there are better alternatives. I did a comparison of prints from this printer and a four year old HP inkjet printer. The inkjet printer had truer skin tones and brighter colors.
