Pontos Fortes: Accepts multiple media types; Easy to use menus on the printer; Optional thumbnail page; Water and smudge resistant prints; High resolution
Pontos Fracos: Paper trays feel a bit flimsy (although they work fine); Not as much flexibility printing from Windows XP as they advertise
Sumário: 2004-09-09 17:59:48 When they say this printer makes photo-lab quality prints, they're not kidding. I've been amazed by the printouts. People I've shown them to cannot believe that it was from a digital camera (I use a 5 mega-pixel camera) and printed at home rather than the traditional film camera and photo lab processing. The prints come out sharp. The coating on the photos is nice and clear. The coating doesn't hold fingerprints when you touch the photo, which makes handling them pretty carefree. The thumbnail feature is nice, even when you're printing from a computer.
My only disappointment is that they say on the box that you can print wallet-size prints. The driver for Windows XP only allows you to print 4X6 borderless or with borders. Even their Film Factory software doesn't let you print two wallets on the page, although it has some other options for multiple images per page. Their tech support response was "sorry, it will work from a media card". So, if you want to print two wallet images on a page, plan to copy your images off your harddrive onto a media card in order to do so.

Pontos Fortes: Great printer if all you need is 6x4 pictures. The print quality it’s as advertised, top lab quality. Low price per print, since the "ink", in fact pigment, will last you more then 100 photos.
Pontos Fracos: A little bit on the slow side, but considering the quality of the photos it's worth it. Also known poor Epson support.
Sumário: If you print from desktop, the Epson driver will still somewhat crop your picture, even after you crop to 6x4 in Photoshop or something like that. That’s because the printer driver increases the size of the print to allow for sloppy alignment and the edges of the photo are oversprayed (printed off the edge of the paper) when borderless is selected.
If this is a problem for you, there is a work around. Just add a border of about 15 pixels before you print, and the driver will remove the border and no additional cropping of the picture.

Pontos Fortes: NA
Pontos Fracos: NA
Sumário: This is absolutely the most user-friendly product we've ever had. Our 9 year old had it up and running in about 15 minutes - and it would have been even quicker if he hadn't had to install the printing cartridge, which was also a simple process, just took a few extra minutes.
These are the features we love:
1. We can take it with us to family gatherings and print photos on the spot. No computer needed, just a digital camera or even just the memory card from the camera if you want to make copies of existing photos.
2. It is lightweight.
3. Anyone can follow the directions and have it up and running quickly.
4. The photos rival any you'd get from a typical photo developing store. For amateur photographers, this is a great find. If you're a pro, you probably already have your own darkroom, but this would be a nice option for quick pictures.
5. The price is right. Should last for years.
6. The paper is typical "photo" size.

Sumário: Easy to set up and use. Very compact and even portable. It's wonderful if you love printing 4x6 photos. Have tried to printed several pictures, the quality is good so far. As an Epson printer, ink is always cheap and replacable. The printing speed is a little slow, though.

Pontos Fortes: Portable, inexpensive per print, print quality.
Pontos Fracos: Only one size prints.
Sumário: I love this printer. It does exactly what I want it to do. Print photo-lab quality pictures right at home. I love that I don't have to hook it up to the computer or anything. I just insert my XD card in the printer and off I go. The quality is amazing too. You can't tell that the prints didn't come from a photo lab. The cropping feature built right in to the printer is very usefull as well. Great Job EPSON!!!!

Pontos Fortes: Excellent photo output! Easy to set up and use. Easily connects to Macintosh (and I presume Windows) computer.
Pontos Fracos: Only prints one size paper, but I knew that when I bought it.
Sumário: 2005-01-04 08:34:24 This printer is exceptionally easy to set up and use. It prints great looking photo prints that really do look like they came from the photo lab. Printing can be done by either inserting the memory card or connecting the camera directly to the printer - which is a nice feature - use the camera's viewer to select and edit pictures since the printer doesn't have a viewer. Another plus for Macintosh users, it is designed to work with Macintosh - and does so quite nicely - as well as PC.

Pontos Fortes: Small footprint, paper packs retail price breakdown is around $0.29/print and are guaranteed to produce 100 prints per pack, color image matching in software, fantastic prints rivaling photo shop
Pontos Fracos: Limited paper capacity requires reloading tray if printing many many photos, no color LCD preview for photos, user interface on printer somewhat unintuitive, poor print quality from memory card
Sumário: Originally I bought this as a gift for someone but ended up keeping it for myself when I offerred to print some photos for them.
This is a great little printer, and the 100 sheet paper/ink packs are the best part about this printer. The paper packs are guaranteed to produce 100 prints, or you can return the unused paper for a refund (including shipping)!
When using the color image matching feature of the included software, the prints are outstanding. People who see the prints don't know that the photos came from a sub $200 home photo printer, and they usually turn it over to the back to look for the paper manufacturer. Everyone I've shown the photos to is always surprised when they find out that the photos came from an inkjet photo printer. They always ask which printer I used.
I tried once to print directly from the memory card slot of the printer instead of going through the software on the computer. My results weren't that great. I'm not sure if I missed a step or if the printer doesn't have the same color image matching capabilities when you print from a memory card, but the print just didn't look as appealing when I print from the computer.
I prefer to print in the "enhance find details" mode to get an even sharper print. Although this mode is much slower than the regular mode, I can see the difference in sharpness. I just let the printer run overnight.
Running the printer overnight leads me to one of my few gripes about this printer, and that is the paper capacity. The input paper capacity is much smaller than the output tray capacity. The input tray can hold maybe 30 sheets at most, and the output tray can hold the entire stack of 100 sheets. I wish that you could just load up the input tray with 100 sheets and print away all night/day. But unfortunately you have to baby sit the printer. I guess the limited input tray can be considered a good feature in case one of the ink heads gets clogged and the printer doesn't know about it. If you were to have 100 sheets in the input tray, then you could end up with 100 prints without cyan ink. So by limiting the input tray size, you limit the number of bad prints.
The printer does not usually have problems of clogged heads if you use it regularly. There is the status monitor on your computer that tells you how much ink you have left. The software is one of the better status monitors and guides that I have seen.
I would definitely recommend this printer for printing 4x6 photos.

Pontos Fortes: Superb picture quality. Affordable price. Compact size. Easy interface. User friendly. Wide compatability of media. No computer needed.
Pontos Fracos: Pictures take about 1 minute to print. No battery power (true portability).
Sumário: I purchased a PictureMate for my dad for Father's day. It came a few hours before we were supposed to leave for the airport, but of course I could not let it sit there without showing dad how to use it! Within 10 minutes of having the printer delivered, we ran off our first picture. The quality was outstanding to say the least. True borderless printing, just as specified. It took about a minute to print a picture, but it was well worth the wait. I had my doubts about purchasing a dedicated printer for pictures, especially just for 4x6's. This printer took all of that doubt away. The quality blew me away! I will definitely be purchasing one for myself in the near future as will my brother. The only thing I could ask for in this printer, would be to have the ability to print from an internal battery. That would allow for true portability. This in no way though, will keep me from purchasing this printer!

Pontos Fortes: Compact, ink/paper pack reasonable, nice prints.
Pontos Fracos: no LCD screen
Sumário: This is a very nice little unit. The pictures seem to come out very nice, and compared to other dedicated printers in its price range, price per print is the lowest. I have an Epson C60 that I use for larger prints but to have this printer for borderless 4x6 prints is great. I have mine hooked up to the computer. I find it easier to edit and crop the picture before sending it to the printer.

Pontos Fortes: Easy to use, nice colors, good price on paper and ink
Pontos Fracos: none
Sumário: This printer is really easy to use. Anyone can use it. You can print proof sheets and the printer allows you to select which ones you want to print full size images. You can also print directly from your printer. Ink and paper packs run about $25-$30 for 100 sheets. It is a pretty good price in my opinion. The photo quality is amazing. It is just like you print at the photo lab, but you can do it easily from your home.
If you want even easier to use, get the deluxe version. This is a good deal for a budget.
