Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon SELPHY CP510 Compact Photo PrinterCustomer Review: Not Thrilled Summary: 3 Stars
The idea is a good one - small dedicated photo printer anyone can use. But the unit is actually fairly complicated for the novice user I bought it for (my mother), and it requires fairly expensive consumables and requires special Canon photo paper.
Customer Review: Alright Summary: 3 Stars
Got this as a Christmas gift It is Alright Cant get rid of lines running down photos replaced everything still not 100%
Customer Review: Unfortunately let down, a first time for Canon Summary: 2 Stars
I've long been a fan of and advocate for Canon products, but this printer is a let down, and will be returned.
The primary problem is consistency. I've printed the same photo 5 times (it comes with an ink cassette and "postcard sized" paper for 5 prints), each time the resulting print has some errors, generally yellowish blotches, a speck here and there. etc. It seems like it could be caused by what would have to be microscopic dust, but that's speculative.
Unflawed portions of the photo look fantastic, but you wouldn't want to have them framed or on display... which is another problem, and is mistakenly written off by some reviewers. The paper it prints on is not standard size. A 'borderless' image, at least with the supplied Canon paper, ends up cropping portions of the photo, and the usable section is 5.8" wide, because of the perforations.
Confused what purpose this serves unless you love to send custom postcards... a lot?
Customer Review: Crops pictures severely! Summary: 2 Stars
This unit is easy to use and makes great looking prints however as my wife found out after her first weekend trip with it, it crops off the top and bottom of the picture file. I bought her the package which included the Canon 520 camera and this printer. She printed out pictures of people and found the tops of heads cutoff. The reason is the proportions of the sensor on the camera are more square than 4x6 so the printer just cuts off the top and bottom of the digital picture file. No warning in the manual, no way to print the full picture file on a 4x6 paper by leaving space at the ends. Nice work Canon!
Customer Review: BROKE AFTER 1 YEAR Summary: 2 Stars
This printer was awesome...while it worked. I had it for a year and used it pretty regularly, but not so much that I would expect it to break so quickly. The loading wheels on the printer would no longer pick-up the paper, telling me that I was out of paper. I was disappointed not only because I really liked this printer, but Canon's customer service solution was to buy a new one. I have always been a huge fan of Canon products, but now I am thinking twice about buying them in the future.
