Summary: Seeing Is Believing
Review: After phone calls,questions,and tons of reviews I have ended my search for the perfect printer to match with my HP 318. My wife and kid must have thought that I was crazy,after taking back camera after camera only to find out I only needed a better printer. This little HP more than backs up the near perfect 5 Star rating. It was a snap to setup and the quality had me comparing the pictures I printed( the first few) to some taken with my more expensive 35mm. I must admit the reviews on this site is what really steered me this way,and I just had to write to says thanks and give my two thumbs way up for this fine little machine.

Summary: HP's hidden little secret....
Review: For Christmas I bought my daughter an Hp camera model 318 and an HP photosmart 100 printer. My wife and I have the expensive fugi 40i camera's and we were impressed with the HP 318, easy to use quality photos on the camera display......and then we decided to print them on her new HP photosmart 100 printer. WOW, you will not believe this printer. Prints from input of almost any smart card, sony stick, etc. directly into the printer worked super. And then I decided to also hook it up to my USB port. I loaded the software disc and it was great. Works as well as any top quality software, such as photodeluxe. Try it...don't belive me , read the reviews below....this printer is GREAT. I also took regular photopaper paper and cut it to the 4x6 paper and it worked great in this printer.

Summary: It is good little printer
Review: Having just bought a Olympus D-150 camera, I went out and got this printer. I like the way you can print from the memory cards. The index printing is a great feature too. Found it at Ritz Camera for 99 bucks. For that price, I definitly recommend it.

Summary: Gem of a printer
Review: Having just recently purchased this printer, I'm extremely surprised at how happy I am. I have messed around with a lot of Inkjet printers for the purpose of making 4x6 photos. However I was always disappointed with the difficulty of just getting the picture output on the paper correctly. Also, larger format photo printers typically cost more and require special 6 color ink. Seeing that I usually print B/W 90% of the time, it's a waste of money.This is where the Photosmart 100 solves the problem. First of all it's a quality printer. It comes with a small world wide power supply that allows you to go anywhere in the world and make pictures from your Digital Camera. It's compact, and fast enough to make printing pictures a breeze. If your camera supports DPOF (a standard for imprinting print info on the digital media) all you have to do is select the photos you want printed on your camera, number of copies each and you are done. Load paper into the printer, insert the media, and press print. All your photos print w/o any more work on your part. This is my first HP printer and I'm impressed with their packaging and software. The printer comes with a CD that includes all the necessary drivers and software for all HP printers and for most operating systems. Unfortunately this printer doesn't support Mac OS, but it does support Windows XP. This printer also doubles as a media reader allowing you to load photos from the media onto the PC. I'm still uncertain as to what the cost per page is. I have a feeling that it will end up being about the same as using online photo services such as Ofoto or Shutterfly. A replacement Ink Cartridge costs around (current price), and HP paper is about (current price) for 20 sheets. I'm guessing that the ink cartridge lasts for about 100 photos which brings the cost per page to about .65 cents a page. That's a bit more than online which is around .50 cents a page (excluding shipping). I find that the quality is about the same, so for a few extra cents a page you get a photo in a matter of minutes rather than days. However, for large print jobs I'd still recommend the online photo shops. Anyway, it's a great value for the money and it will sure to be an excellent traveling companion for vacations.

Summary: Photosmart is really smart!
Review: HP did a good thing here......the photos are acceptable in spite of the low resolution of my camcorder 'still' picture feature. The smaller 2.5" x 3.25" turn out super. Have not experienced any problems with it....and are using it regularly now.It was shipped promptly and arrived in excellent condition.

Summary: WOW !
Review: I buy a lot of gadgets, because I'm a guy addicted to gadgets.
If a gadget interests me,...I don't put much research or thought into the process - I just buy. Consequently, more than few of my gadgets end up in the closet or attic, because they just don't perform like hype on the box indicates. After 2 uses of the Photo Smart 100, my response is WOW! Great photos, easy to produce, respectable print time, relatives in disbelief, envious coworkers... It was just $[money], and has turned my Cannon Powershot A20 digital camera into a package that produces 35MM quality photos, that I can print at home - in minutes.

Summary: Ditch the photo lab---get this printer!
Review: I first read about this printer on a return trip from London in February. I had taken my first digital camera on the trip (a Canon S30---awesome), and had 140 images I was anxious to print. After reading the reviews on Amazon[.com], I bought the printer and printed the photos myself. Oh my gosh---they looked like postcards! (Even my friends said so). I printed over 200 photos from the London trip alone, for me and for friends who were on the trip. Since then, I've probably printed another 300-400 photos on this little gadget. I take it on vacation with me and print photos for everyone. The color is still great, the images are sharp, and the quality is amazing. Cost-wise, it's a pretty decent deal. I get roughly 100 photographs for every ink-jet cartridge I use. And I've tested all the photopapers, and the best one I've found is [local store] Premium High Gloss Photo Paper (even better than Kodak Ultima paper). I buy it in 8 1/2" x 11" size and cut it myself (about [$$$] per photo). And of course, the convenience of seeing your pictures instantly is worth it. At least 6 people I know have RUN out to buy this printer after seeing it. You could just order it from Amazon[.com] and have it shipped free!

Summary: Very good printer for the first time user
Review: I got my first digital camera (hp612) for christmas and wanted to print them out. When I went to my local best buy I saw this little printer on display. I decided to try and and I was very pleased with the quality and how easy it was to set up. After realizing that the printer did not come with a USB cable and running out to buy one, very annoying, I was banging out high quality 4 x 6 pics. in no time. My friends were even amazed at the quality of the pictures I could produce. If you are looking for a great photo only printer without a lot of hassles to use, then this printer is right for you.

Summary: Borderless 4 x 6 Prints. Portable. No PC Required.
Review: I had always wanted to get into digital photography; but my PC was old, and I didn't want to buy a new one! So when HP introduced their new PS 100 printer, which prints directly from a camera's memory card -- no PC required -- I dove in with both feet first! I purchased this HP PS 100 printer -- along with an Olympus C-700 digital camera -- and I've been very happy. The PS 100 makes bold and beautiful 4" x 6" prints that are every bit as sharp as those from a full-size printer. As an additional convenience, both my camera and printer use DPOF (digital print order format) which allows for one-button printing. I can crop (and select) the photos I want to print on the camera's rear LCD screen -- pop the camera's Smart Media card into the printer -- and then output borderless 4" x 6" photos just by hitting "print" (with no scrolling necessary to find the right shot, since the PS 100 always calls up the DPOF pictures first). What could be easier? With the PS 100, printing photos is so simple -- I now find myself giving away pictures (as gifts) to friends and family (something I had done only on rare occasion before). I've even taken the PS 100 to family gatherings -- where I've handed out photos on the spot (which everyone thought was cool!). The PS 100 uses familiar ink jet cartridges, and is much less expensive to purchase than competing photo printers from Canon, Olympus, and Sony (all of which use a much more expensive dye sublimation technology). The PS also prints a full-size 4" x 6" snapshot, (whereas the others, such as the Canon and the Olympus, make only prints that are quite a bit smaller). The PS 100 is also the only printer in the bunch to accommodate all of the major memory formats (Compact Flash, Smart Media and Memory Stick); something the other printers will do only with an additional PC card adapter. (For those of you more advanced, printing from your PC is an available option with the printer's built in USB connection and supplied software on disc. The 4" x 6" paper size template also transfers over to other applications, like MS Word, enabling one to print documents from the PS 100 on to 4" x 6" note cards; which, for example, I've used to prepare notes for speeches.) The HP PS 100 is the absolute easiest way to get into digital photo printing. And when the next family gathering rolls around -- you won't want to leave home without it!
