Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon SELPHY CP510 Compact Photo Printer
Customer Review: Great Quality Photo Printer !
Summary: 5 Stars
I Bought this printer because my wife wanted a printer that she could print out the photo's from her new Canon digital camera. Since the Camera was Canon with PictBridge, no computer is needed with this printer. You can print directly from the camera which is quick and easy.
This printer is only for photo's, but it prints out great looking 4 x 6 pictures very fast. The quality is excellent, and I don't believe you can distinguish them from pictures printed at a photo Lab. I didn't actually measure how long it took to print a picture, but it was very fast. A good guesstimate would be appox 60-80 seconds. It does not use ink, but a process called Dye Sublimation. According to photo printer experts, photos from a dye-sublimation printer will be much more durable and fade much more slowly than photos from an inkjet printer. The dye-sublimation printing process is performed three times, one time each for the cyan, magenta, and yellow dyes, and then repeated a fourth time to apply a protective coating to the print. The protective coating applied during the fourth pass is a laminate that blocks UV (ultraviolet) light, makes the dye-sub print waterproof, scratch-resistant and fade-resistant. So, this printer will give you instant gratification Lab quality prints that will last a lifetime without fading!
This printer is very compact, so you can actually take it with you if you want. There is an optional battery so you can print out pictures anytime, anywhere. For most people this won't be necessary, but for those professional individuals who might currently be using an older "Polaroid" instant camera, this allows you to take a BIG step up in picture quality! I believe using this printer with your digital camera would also be less expensive.
The print cartridges and photo paper are sold as a set. I have found that Amazon has the best prices.
The only drawback (which isn't really a negative) is the cost of the print cartridges and Photo paper. It is slightly higher than average. The quality of the prints and convenience however should be taken into consideration. Instant gratification with quality comes at a slight premium, and I fully believe it is worth it. We purchased the 100 pack from Amazon for around $23.00 with shipping. That works out to $0.23 ea. Only $0.06 more that the local photo lab. (that doesn't include the gas, wear and tear on the car and time traveling to and from the local Photo mega mart. Probably washes if you really want to analyze it to death....)
