Summary: Technically Flawed and Discusting Customer Support
Review: A consumer level printer only. Each page has micro-lesions running the length of the print. This appears to be caused by the feeded rolls cutting the top layer of the photo. Olympus engineers did not know of this problem till I pointed it out, and acknowledged it was a problem they could do nothing aboout. Most highly noticable when you turn your brint towards a light source at an angle. Second problem is it will not print the number of copies you ask when controlled from a pc rater than ditrect media input. Don't bother asking 'professor Otto' from their web-site as they don't reply to customer requests. They don't answer their phones either. This is an inferior product.

Summary: olympus camedia digital color printer p-400
Review: Absolutely love this printer. It is so easy to use and the results are amazing. We printed some of our favorite pictures and put them right into frames. It looks like a truly professional job. We have given prints to family members that don't believe we did them ourselves. The only complaint - is to plan ahead - the printer ribbons and paper are not carried most places - so order ahead and in quantity.

Summary: The FINAL Solution for Home Digital Darkrooms!
Review: Attention photographers and hobbyists alike! The P-400 will be the last printer you ever need to buy. For the longest time I used a high end HP pronter and photo paper to produce mediocre printed images. Since my purchase of the E-10 (arguably the best digital camera on the market) and the P-400, I've been able to spend more time taking and editing photos and producing better results. The print quality is phenominal. A side by side comparison with an 8x10" from the P-400 and from my local camera store was impossible to disern by family and friends. Most of my personal portfolio now is comprised of images taken with my E-10, edited in Photoshop 6.0 and printed on the P-400.This printer is a wonderful tool for any photographer. The USB interface is really a must when working with large digital files as paralell port transfer can be slow. I've tested out the LCD screen and found it to be useful, but the P-400 works much better when you can edit images on your PC. If you've invested lots of time and money into digital photography, you owe it to yourself to buy a printer that can produce images worthy of the work. The P-400 is the machine to do so!

Summary: More garbage from Olympus
Review: Avoid this printer for the following reasons.
1) It's paper size doesn't fit regular frames 8x10 or 4x6.
2) It takes ribbons that are sometimes difficult to load.
3) Print quality is about the same as a the latest ink jets.
4) Doesn't have slots for Compact Flash or Secure Digital cards only Smart Media which almost nobody still uses.
5)Consumables are at least twice the cost of ink-jets.

Summary: Exceptional, professional quality at a low price
Review: Finally a low cost home solution to color photography. The P-400 is now priced at 1/3 of its original introduction price. Absolutely no comparison to any inkjet printer. Photos printed on inkjets fade over time. The P-400 sub dye process coats the photo with a fourth lamination layer that prevents fading. The cost of the supplies are inexpesive when you consider you can make your own 8X10 in about 2 minutes for about $1.60. Forget about the price of the printer. A couple of hundred sheets through it and you'll have more invested in the supplies than the printer itself. I recently returned from Hawaii and made a photo album with multiple different sized printed on a single page. Then bound all the pages with a spiral and use it as my custom album. Much nicer than any photo album or insert and everyone compliments me on it. I just wish that they would make an adapter to accept the Xd card type as I have to print through my lasptop. This is a beautiful home toy you'll have lots of fun with. And remember: Your not paying thousands for a photo-lab but you get vitually the same results. BUY IT!

Summary: This is the printer I've been waiting for!
Review: Finally, a dye sublimation photo printer that gives you prints larger than 4" x 6"! The colors are rich, and the pictures are very sharp. There is nothing on the market today that is in this printer's class. If anyone is interested in quality prints of digital images, this printer is an absolute must have. I would recommend printing images that were taken with at least a 2 megapixel digital camera. I have an HP Photosmart P1000 printer that does very well, but it cannot compete with the P400. You can't achieve the same quality print with an ink jet printer.

Summary: The search is over
Review: From digital camera to print choose Olympus P-400. For the best print quality choose Olympus P-400. To save on the costs of having any developer make 8x10's choose Olympus P-400. For prints of exceptional quality direct from your digital camera Compact Flash or Smart media --- well you know. Two minutes after I unpacked everything and assembled this printer I was watching the P-400 create the first print. The menu system and selections on the printer were simple to understand. The quality was exceptional. Using a Compact Flash required a PCMCIA adapter but that didn't slow this printer down. ... And in about 90 seconds! Unless your Uncle works at Kodak or you do, you can't beat the price and speed of getting a truly remarkable print. Go ahead and enhance your photos with your PC first. Whatever you do will show up in amazing color on the Olympus Camedia P-400. My last printer for true photo quality prints!

Summary: Simply Amazing!
Review: Got this printer for $199 new (plus tax). This is the only printer I have ever used that literally is plug and play. No tweaks or fiddling with settings (though the option to do that is available). Right out of the box it prints so good you'd think you were in a Kodak or Fuji lab. I've shot photos with Lumix LC5 and Lumix FZ20 and the prints are spectacular. The trickiest part was loading in the new film, after using up the sample film that came pre-loaded. It took a couple minutes to read the directions. Someone else commented about this and gave the printer a "1" rating. Big deal. After you install the film once, you've got the idea.
I ordered supplies on Amazon.com and the per print cost goes down to $1.58 total. Ya can't do better than that at Costco or Sam's club. Think about it. An 8x10 in 90 seconds for $1.58. Best deal on the market.

Summary: Will not print desired number of copies
Review: I have asked Olympus tech support to tell me why this printer will not print the number of copies I send though to the printer. After six weeks, three calls with hour long waits and voice mail messages, I have had no response. Very disappointing. Time to move to Epson.
