Summary: A portable gem
Review: I find that for the price, this photo printer is rather proficient in printing photos at the highest pixel possible determined by it's computer software. My own complaint is that it randomly prints a watermark of Bob Saget's face on some of my photos, which I think is a flaw in the hardware or perhaps my software. I heard about a Saget Virus, but am unsure if it affects this type of printer.

Summary: This printer is awesome!
Review: I gave this printer to my Brother for Christmas 2 years ago. While I was visiting him last week in Montana, we printed out the pictures I took. they turned out better then regular film. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I plan to buy myself one.

Summary: Must use tabbed paper
Review: I got this as a gift, and while I was impressed with it at first, I later realized after a lot of printing and trying different options and finally calling their support, that I cannot print 4x6 images on 4x6 paper. If I want a 4x6 image, I have to print on 4x6 paper *with* a tab. The printer will always leave 1/2 inch blank on the paper. I'm very surprised about this and still have trouble believing it. This means that I have to resize each print by hand if I want it to print correctly on this paper (by default it just cuts it off). Maybe another reviewer can confirm this? Apparently with the bigger printers you can use non-tabbed paper and have it print on the whole thing, but not with the small printers.

Summary: Incredible Printer!
Review: I got this printer for Christmas to go with my new digital camera and I am very impressed! The prints look as detailed as film pictures. This printer also allows you to crop pictures, change the print quality and quantity, and even change the color to black and white, sepia, or antique (sepia with some faint colors). It's very easy to use, especially since no computer is required. This printer is an excellent investment!

Summary: Very nice, but one problem...
Review: I love the convenience and ability to carry this around. Inserting a memory card is all that is needed, but what I didn't know is that, unless this is attached to a computer, you DON'T get the nice, crisp, high-resolution printouts shown in the examples and descriptions. The photos print at a MUCH lower resolution. What looks crisp on the camera may print a little blurred -- unless you attach this printer to a computer. This is a catch I wish had been explained before purchase. For the cost of this printer and the need to have it hooked up to a computer to get quality prints, you might as well invest in a regular-sized printer or get the photos printed on Wal-Mart's superior equipment.

Summary: A MUST HAVE!!
Review: I LOVE this printer! Within 2 minutes of opening the box, I was printing beautiful photos from my Sony Memory Stick. I have had a digital camera for over a year and have sent many photos via E-mail to family and friends, but it would always take me "forever" to go get prints made. I absolutely loved being able to hand my neighbor friend pictures of our kids together in their trick-or-treat outfits instantly. It has been a true joy to print out hundreds of photos practically non-stop. SO,WHY IS THIS A MUST HAVE? It is extremely easy to use and comes with a "no brainer" setup guide. What you see on the LCD screen is EXACTLY how the photo will look when you print it. You can enhance the photo (ie: brightness control etc.) right from the printer. All you do is plug it into the wall, and start printing. You don't ever have to connect it to a computer, though you can easily if you want to. It can be used with several memory cards including: CompactFlash Type I and II; Sony Memory Sticks; Lexar Media Sticks; Secure Digital; MultiMedia Card; and xD-Picture Cards. (Wanted to mention this as I was told at a local electronics store that I would need to buy Sony's Photo Printer because the Sony Media Stick wouldn't work with any others). I especially love being able to tell it to print 5 copies of a single photo and go off to do something else and return to find gorgeous photos ready for myself, Grandma and Grandpa, Nana, and Aunts and Uncles to boot...all from the comfort of my own home where it is much easier to entertain my kids than it is at a stores printing center. Give it a try, I am certain you will be impressed!! Sorry I can't comment on the software that came with it as I haven't even opened it yet...no need to my photos are AWESOME already!! THANKS HP!!

Summary: Best Photo Printer I've Ever Owned
Review: I love this printer. I take lots of photos of my family and the photos would usually sit on my card. With the PS 245 printer, I can easily print my photos without having to be locked down to the PC. I take the printer with me when we go on family vacations and print my photos right then. I also will bring the printer into my family room and start printing while I'm preparing dinner. When I have a special photo that I want to use in a greeting card or some other creative fashion, I just take the printer to the PC and easily upload the photo and then edit and create from the PC. This printer makes it easy for me to print all of my 4 by 6 inch photos, whenever I want to and where ever I am. The quality is amazing and I never have to wait to get my photos processed at the store.

Summary: very cool...
Review: I purchased this photo printer for my brother this past Christmas. We set it up and within a matter of minutes we printed up several photos we took that day with our entire extended family by simply plugging in his digital camera's memory stick into the printer. It was that easy to use.This is perfect for situations where you can instantly print out photos, make multiple copies, and give them to people right there. Needless to say, the image quality was quite good and the preview window helped to scan through the library of photos of the memory card to select which image to print. With all that in mind, this might not be a suitable printer if you don't plan on using it for such purposes. But if you like the idea of turning your digital camera into an instant polaroid camera, this is exactly what you need. However my one wish, perhaps for their next model upgrade, is to include battery support so that this printer can be fully portable for say outdoor excursions.

Summary: A portable gem
Review: It is as big as a 2 slice toaster and weighs less than 3 pounds. It prints great pictures with very little setup. I never connected it to my computer as it has enough optional adjustments in it. My first one had a defect, the LCD read "print cartridge door is open" every time I used it, even though the door was not open. Second one is trouble free so far.
