I have been through 2 of the refill packs for this printer and have only had a couple of problems. I love that the ink and the photo paper come together in a package. You know you need ink when you run out of paper! The first package of ink/paper, I have no complaints at all. The pictures looked lab quality perfect. You can print wallet size photos, thumbnail prints, and 4 x 6 photos. You can print with or without a border. You can use your memory card to print from. You can use it with or without the pc. The 2nd pack of paper/ink I got, I printed about 40 photos and then I started getting lines across the next photos and very poor quality color. They looked worse than printing photos from a regular printer. After about 15 photos being printed having problems, I emailed Epson customer service. They have a questionaire on their website when emailing them and they ask what type of printer you have. Well, their response to me was for an Epson Stylus regular printer. I sent back telling them I have the picturemate and needed help with that and I have not heard back from them. This was over 3 weeks ago. Well, I tried cleaning the nozzles (through the maintenance option on the printer) and that didn't help. I cleaned them 2 more times and after that, no problem, all my pictures started coming out fine and beautiful again. So, I'm not sorry I bought it. Just a little leary of customer service. I only wish I would have gotten the Picturemate with the LCD screen so that it would be easier to use without a PC.Read full review
This is a great purchase especially if you like to print out pictures right away, I liked that you can chose the printing size below 4X6 of course... I had a few problems with color when I first printed but cleaning the printing heads fixed that up... I didn't get a print package but I have one now so I am not sure when it will run out. But I have my back up... I too wish that I had an LCD screen to see it prior to printing but If I know the order ahead of time or print out a print page that works for me...
I bought this for my husband to take on a mission trip to Africa. The idea was for him to take pictures of the kids in the villages and orphanages and print them out for them. Turns out there were way too many kids for him to do it on the spot, so we are working on a solution for that. We tried it out before he left, and I was delighted with the photo quality. It was every bit as good as the picture printers at Target or K Mart. It turns out that the kindergarten teacher at our church school uses one in the classroom...kind of an instant rewards type of thing, and she said it has been very successful for her. This one is an older model, but I imagine the newer ones do just about everything but tend bar and make sandwiches! I am very happy with this product.
This is an excellent photo printer that comes in an a small package. Connect it directly to your computer or print directly from your camera or memory media. Make sure you get the unit that has the built in LCD. It's a little more expensive than the Personal PictureMate, but the ability to preview your pictures before printing is well worth the additional cost. If you with to print lots of 4x6 images, then this is a good choice for a printer. If you desire to print other sizes, then you should consider getting a full size printer. This printer is great as a second printer for printing high quality snapshots.
Printer will not print at all , just blinking lights. I had to pay for return shipping on an item that didn't work from day one. I tried replacing all the ink cartridges , re-booted the unit , checked for paper jams and still, wouldn't work. I was sold junk and lost out on time and the return shipping charges. Not cool at all!!
