4 out of 5 stars A "Snap" to use   January 7, 2009
Gary J. Fields
I chose the Snap as a gift for a sister who is challenged by new technology. Its ease-of-use should win her over, plus its compact size and portability. She'll never have to use the computer as it accepts most image cards directly. It should be a great printer for her scrap-booking if she learns to use the new digital camera!

The printer's introductory print pak was past the expiration date, producing striped prints. Nozzle cleaning did nothing. The seller sent a new pak which produced a clear, crisp print with good color saturation and contrast.

The ink cartrige installs as easily as a VCR tape, but seems wastefully large. (Lots of plastic.) All the inks are together, so you probably throw away good ink when one color runs out.

You can't zoom in to inspect the sharpness of the image, so must check that in the camera to choose the ones you want to print. Cropping and some image enhancement is possible, but with the small screen it's hard to tell if it needs it. Print layout is limited to pre-established choices - a plus if you want simplicity, a minus if you want something other that what is offered.

Recommended for portability (works on batteries too), simplicity and quality snapshots.



5 out of 5 stars EPSON DID IT AGAIN!!!   November 4, 2008
momof3youngins
WOW!!!! I purchased this printer to replace my old Picturemate (the original) that died after 4 years of hard use. I really didn't expect to see a huge difference in quality, a Picturemate is a Picturemate right? WRONG! The print speed and quality are OUTSTANDING, even better than my old picturemate! I did shop around and after visiting a couple of well known electronic and office supply stores and hearing "Oh..if you had an Epson photo printer, you definitely won't be satisfied with any other brand" a handful of times, I came home and ordered this little jem. If you are in the market for a compact photo printer, this is the one!


5 out of 5 stars Great little workhorse   June 2, 2008
G. A. Evans (Atlanta, GA)
I probably wouldn't have thought to buy this printer since I already have a great Epson photo printer, but I got it free as part of a promotion when I bought my latest digital camera. If I had known then what I know now, I would pay for this printer. I've printed 30-40 pictures out of this printer so far, and I've been thrilled with every single one. I've tried pictures I've tweaked with photo editing programs and pictures that have come right out of my camera, and they've all been great. I will say that I've only tried the 4x6 with and without borders and haven't tried any of the other options, but for just 4x6 alone, it's worth the price of the printer. I couldn't be more pleased with the results.


5 out of 5 stars Great Little Printer!   February 16, 2008

Fast and fabulous photos - purchased the extra battery and now can take the printer downstairs or anywhere I want. Excellent buy!
