Summary: a little baby printer that can do big things
Review: The quality of the 4X6 prints that this tiny little printer can produce is awesome! Being able to just put your memory card in to get pictures without connecting to the pc, is a nice feature.

Summary: I *LOVE* THIS PRINTER!
Review: The title says it all. The pictures from this printer come out pretty quickly and are absolutely GORGEOUS! I love not having to trim the photos, since it does only hold 4 x 6 paper. I'm certain more companies will soon copy HP's perfect companion to digital photography. It's genious!

These pictures are BETTER than lab prints for me. My pale, blond haired daughter always looked like she had black eyes from the dark circles under her eyes in lab prints. The HP 100 improved that tremendously. Also, my lab prints were always dark in the background of the subject. Again, this is no longer a problem. My pictures are now bright and beautiful! I'm not sure if that's from the camera itself (Kodak 3600) or the printer, since I got them within one week of each other.

This printer is small enough that it fits inside my tower cabinet. It doesn't clutter up the workspace. I was deceived by thinking by USB camera cord would work on this USB printer. It didn't, and I had to buy the...USB cord anyway. But I am not complaining!

I took my memory card right to the store and asked to sample the quality of prints. It was no problem for the salesperson, and guess what? They had a sale made within 5 minutes of my coming through the front doors.

I overheard my usually un-impressable husband talking about this printer to someone on the phone. That means something.

HP should refund my money, as I've told everyone I know how much I love this printer. I'm sure other photo printers are excellent too, but the benefit of NO TRIMMING makes this one stand apart. I read Amazon reviews all the time, especially on video games, but I have never loved a product so much that I wanted to post a review.

You really need to SEE to BELIEVE these excellent pictures!

Summary: HP100 PhotoSmart Printer
Review: This a great little printer if you are looking for something with limited usage (it accepts 4x6 paper only). I purchased it to compliment my desk printer. I was looking for a printer I can take with me on vacation, to weddings, family gatherings, business events, etc., and this little machine fits the bill to a "T". You just take the memory card from your digital camera, (it accepts SmartMedia, CompactFlash Type I and II, and Memory Stick cards), and plug it into the printer, and away you go. When you plug in your memory card the display panel on top of the printer indicates how many photos are on the card. You can print an index page of thumbnail size proofs of all the pictures on your memory card, then selectively print just the photos you want. Optional print sizes are 4x6, Wallet (2.5x3.25), or Thumbnail (0.7x0.9). You can choose to print a single, or multiples of the same photo. You can also choose to print a range of photos (e.g. print single or multiples of index numbers 21 through 25). What a boon for taking with you on vacation! If you fill your memory card, you can make a print of each photo when you get back to the hotel, erase the card and start over taking new pictures. When you get home you can scan the prints into your computer, with the option of making enlargements. At special events, guests can go home with a souvenir print of the event. I am very pleased with the quality of the prints and the convenience and ease of use of the printer. You will only get borderless prints if you use the HP 4x6 Premium Photo paper with the tear off tab. Other brand 4x6 papers will print with a narrow border. The printer's compact size and weight (just under 3lbs) make it extremely portable, and I like the instant gratification of a print without having to take the time to store them in the computer first, (also a great point for those who are thinking of a digital camera, but don't have a computer). The only thing I would have liked is a double power source (i.e. rechargeable battery as well as AC), but that, of course, would increase the price. There is a padded carrying case made specifically to fit this printer. It has a front zippered pocket to hold the AC adapter, a spare ink cartridge, a box of printing paper, and a pocket to store prints and/or user's manual. Overall, I am delighted with the HP100, and plan to purchase two more to give as Christmas gifts.

Summary: Great little printer
Review: This is all you really need to know. This little printer is a great companion to any digital camera user. It prints 4 x6 and wallet size photos of astounding quality and color. It is also extremely easy to use, had it up and running in 5 minutes. Note this is not a printer to use for general computing but an adjunct to those with digital cameras. It takes smartmedia, compactflash and memory sticks directly and you can print without the PC. Again I can't emphasize how easy it is to use and how amazing the quality of the photos is. It's a lot of fun too, because it is so portable you can bring it anywhere.

Summary: What a terrificly useful printer!
Review: This is yet another great idea from H-P. The 100 PhotoSmart prints beautiful photos very quickly. Setup took a few minutes and I was printing on Christmas Eve. I took it to the family Christmas dinner and everyone was amazed. Nearly instant, high-quality photos of my grand-niece opening presents, family shots and everyone getting in the picture. I am very happy with the high resolution, borderless prints and the ease of use with the H-P 100. I can't see any need for my dusty 35mm camera anymore. Digital is the only way to go, and take the H-P 100 PhotoSmart along for the ride.

Summary: If you own a digital camera, you want this!
Review: This little compact printer only does one thing (4x6 photos) and it does a fantastic job. My wife owns one of the older model HP digital cameras (C200), I believe we paid a few hundred for the camera about a year and a half ago and it was one of the most inexpensive mega-pixel models. I was skeptical that the pictures the demo unit produced may only be possible by higher dollar camera, but the photos this printer produces from my camera are still better quality than those of my two hundred dollar (non-digital) 35mm pictures developed at the local Kodak lab. To test for any bias I might have had my wife and I had three family members look though a photo album we made containing 35mm "developed" photos and photos printed from this printer... They all guessed the 35mm photos were the printed ones because the photos this printer produced were much better quality. Now, enoguh about the quality, which in the words of my brother in-law is "simply amazing".

The printer works stand-alone, plug your flash ROM in and you can jump to a specific picture number and print, the interface could not get any easier! You can also print prrof sheets (4x6 with multiple thumb-nail pictures). The bundled software allows you to take pictures off your hard drive and send them to the PhotoSmart 100 though the USB cable (cable isn't included unfortunately) USB is the only option for connection.

Printer includes 6 blank 4x6 photo sheets, and 1 cartridge (HP claims you can get 120 pictures out of a single ink jet cart, I've been told 100 is more realistic), paper is also priced reasonable. Overall you do save money, you have unsurpased convienence and the quality is excellent. There are few products I would recommend this highly; if you own a digital camera, buy a PhotoSmart 100!

Summary: Handy, easy and convenient
Review: This little printer is so handy, you can take it anywhere there's power. Print your pictures out immediately without a computer. Set up DPOF on your camera, plug in the card and hit the print button. All you have to do is add paper and let it do its job. It does a beautiful printing job and does it quickly for the space it takes up. I really like this little printer. It also saves buying photo cartridges for your big printer and switching them out.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Isnt it just the cutest thing!!!
Review: This printer is extremely light in weight and it is easy to take with me on trips. My turn around time from taking a digital picture to getting it on a 4x6 is around 3 minutes. However if you are not in a hurry to get the pics it runs a little cheaper to buy prints from ....
