Canon SELPHY ES40 Compact Photo Printer User Reviews:

Customer Rating:      Summary: Postcard printer that makes life simple Comment: This really does what it says on the can. If you are looking for a simple and consistent way to achieve postcard sized prints from your images, then there cannot be a simpler method. You are literally talked through the process by either the PC based software or by the on-board system if used stand-alone. I bought it because it took too long to get postcard prints from my conventional inkjet photoprinter and I needed to react to the expectations of near instant printing that digital photography has fostered. I had an HP A500 series mini photo printer but the colour matching was terrible and the ink was wasted, thereby costing a lot more than the Selphy prints do. I dont think that I have lost one print yet! Do not be put off by the ink/paper combination, the costs are actually better in the long run and packs of 50 prints mean exactly that number of prints. Do not expect much artistic scope or flexibility. Just load the image and get a great postcard sized print everytime. Simple as that!
The only downside is that it only prints postcard size - but then again, that was the reason that I bought it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great quality prints Comment: I already had a previous model Canon Selphy, some years old, so decided to upgrade as the old one was slow and all you could do was print from pict-bridge camera. This new ES40 offers a lot more possibilities. It takes all memory cards, so you dont need a pict bridge compatible camera and cable. You can also be creative and add borders, speech bubbles, zoom and reduce photos etc, so it does quite a bit more than earlier models. The speech function is a gimmick, so dont expect much. Having the paper/ink cartridge integral to the machine is helpful, so its easily portable
It may look like some Fisher-Price toy for a 2 or 3 year old (Canon should make it look a bit more serious/professional that is appears), but ease of operation and the results really are excellent. 100 sheet paper/ink refill packs (2x50 sheet cartridges) also mean you can print quite a lot before you need to purchase again. Great for holiday postcards as the paper refills come in postcard format, with the back (white) side being ready to write on, add name and address and a stamp.
Overall, great product with great printing....you could consider the ES30 model though without the voice/speech help, a bit cheaper and does the job just the same!
