Rating: 10

Time with product: 5 Months

Strengths: it is easy to use. I have a canon cp-200 photo printer that can use this paper set. It takes 2 mins to finish a photo that contains four steps printing. It contains 3 colors film and 1 cover film

Weaknesses: none is found .

Summary: It is very convenient and easy to be used. The quality is very good. I feel it is better than normal digital printer. The only shortcoming is the price. It will cost 20-40 cents per photo while in digital store 10-20 cents per photo. The quality is better than digital printing.

Time with product: 1 Week

Strengths: Excellent picture quality. Heavy paper weight.

Weaknesses: 41 cents per print is too high. Only comes with the postcard imprint on back.

Summary: My CP-220 prints high quality photos although pricey compared to inkjet printers. The larger box with 108 4x6's is a better price. Buy.com has a good price on it. The paper and ink packaged together is very convenient. Combined with my Canon camera, I get photo-lab quality pictures and they are not supposed to fade like my inkjet photos. I like not having to put the pictures on my computer first.

Strengths: Good quality prints

Weaknesses: None

Summary: The prints are crisp and vivid. It is handy to have the ink and paper together in one package, but it does tend to be a little pricey. I use a CP-330 and am very happy with the quality and speed of the printer. I also use the Pictbridge feature to print from my Canon printer.

Time with product:

Strengths: Very good prints, the canon printer beats the lexmark or Hp Printers any day. I don't think that the paper not being true 4x6 is a big deal.

Weaknesses: It is about 55 cents a print if you buy from local retailers, Buy the KP-108 ink set online for $40.00 And the prints are only 37 cents each

Summary: I am very happy with mine I highly recomend this item, I use mine for print jobs of less than 10 prints due to the price and speed, It takes about 63 seconds to print a 4x6. I want them to make a 5x7 model.
