I just recently purchased the Camedia P-400 printer a few weeks ago and have used it quite a bit. I would have to say it is the best photo printer on the market today. While it doesn't give perfect results (and this depends a lot on your photo image that you print) it comes close. From about 2-3 feet away you can't tell the image came from a printer. Prints beautiful 8x11 photos. I haven't used it with a digital camera yet, but have used it for files off my computer. Timed, it takes about 10-11 minutes to print a photo (color or b&w) and does make some noise (just as a laser jet).

PROS: Great quality photos, nice design, sturdy, easy to set up and use, works with smartmedia cards/pc cards/computer image files (.jpg,.gif etc.), photos instantly dry/no smudges or smears, photo paper quality is excellent

CONS: Only came with 5 sheets of paper and a photo ribbon for 5 prints, no cables provided for hook-up (not a problem if you already own a printer cable), expensive paper and ribbon (costs $1.60 per print)

If you are looking for a great photo printer and want professional looking prints buy this printer (if you can afford it).

I also should add you get 25 glossy photos per pack ($19.99) and the photo ribbon can print 50 photos ($39.99)

I just got my P-400 printer. Using XP operating system I found that they have not got a good print driver as yet but will sometime this spring. The print is beautiful. I still have much to learn about lightening the print. It seems to print on the dark side. Big drawback is the 7.64 x10 print rather than 8x10. It just barely covers under a frame and much harder to trim. I would like to know where the viewer from Olympia, WA gets their paper for 19.95 and ribbon for 39.95. Please write and let me know. Does anyone have a good price on these items? I want to keep costs down as I do a lot of printing. I am having trouble getting the USB port to print. It must be something I just don't know. I would not be worried about showing these prints to any customer. creativeimages2@earthlink.net.

I've used this paper with my A2 printer and the results are amazing. The printer is as close to true dye sublimation as you can get at home. If your looking to make full use of this type of printer you need the best paper for the job. The Olympus photo quality paper is that medium. The color was vibrant and the end result was amazing. It is worth the extra few dollars when you compare this paper to its competitors.

TOP QUALITY PHOTO PAPER. GLOSS FINISH. WHEN PHOTOS ARE PRINTED ON THIS PAPER, THEY LOOK LIKE THEY WERE PROFESSIONALLY DONE. DEFINITELY A KEEPER. WILL CERTAINLY ORDER IT AGAIN.

Everything as listed! No problems! Will buy through them again

Great paper and picture output.... I have just begun using them to replace "traditional" prints and am very satisfied with the prints it makes. Only complaint was no variation yet available in paper types, ie semi-gloss or matte...
