Canon SELPHY ES40 Compact Photo Printer (3647B001)

This printer is great for small here and there pictures that I want printed. I have a photo printer I used before but in the end this is more cost effective. To print about the same amout I have to buy 2 differenet inks plus photo paper about $75. I would only use this for small jobs because sometimes it doesnt accecpt some of the pictures on ur card. Easy fix for that is if u open up the pic in windows paint and save as and save as a jpeg. Pain in the butt but it worked for me :) over all Im pretty happy with this printer for what I use it for, I got it in a pkg deal when I bought my canon rebel for a sick price!

This isnt my first Selphy but I like it better than my previous ones. I do a lot of traveling and I love the way this one is compact. I also prefer the way the cartridge is set up with ink and paper instead of being separated n the other version I had, less to keep track of when Im out and about.

Love this printer. Fast clear easy pictures.

For many years I use this series of printers, which for me is the best Canon has ever had as DYE SUBLIMATION and I have 5 impressions because I work selling photos at events. Im very upset with Canon for suspending the making of these supplies we need to work with. Before we bought it for $ 28 and now its over $ 70. It is very disrespectful to the customer who bought this model and now or you buy the supplies for an abusive price or throw away the printers as trash . VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH CANON !

I purchased this printer for my girlfriend. Shes not a very electronics saavy person and will usually not even bother to attempt learning about new gadgets. She basically plugged this printer in and was printing in less than 2 minutes. Picture quality was good. Printer speed was average/good so no complaints. The paper/ink combo kits are fantastic. You always have the exact amount of ink for the amount of paper in each package so you never run out of one before the other. Very compact and light weight. LCD screen is a great feature. Overall this is a great printer and very worth your time, epecially for such a great price! MUST HAVE! (Update 4/25/13). I have now owned this printer for over 3 years and its still a fantastic product. The reason Im updating this review is because of the drastic price increase. I purchased this product in 2010 for $50. It is now listed for $350. Its probably worth the money if you have it to waste, but because of the crazy price increase, I would look for something else. Now, If you do decide to buy this product in spite of the price, you wont be disappointed in terms of quality.

This is a great Printer and so much fun in many situations. Take it to family reunion, my DIL is school teacher she uses with her students. Everything about this printer is fun, cool, and neat. Complaints from others about the only manner to purchase ink/paper cartridges is online. But that is fine with me.

Having had more than my share of compact ink jet photo printers, I was a little skeptical of the all-in-one cartridge system used by the Selphy ES40. I was also, however, tired of prints never coming out right, paper that was reluctant to feed, near interminable waits, etc. This printer is the modern day equivalent of a Polaroid camera. You just insert the cartridge (for 50 photos), easily select the photo via the dial (which works very much like Canon cameras (or like an iPod, you can spin it or click each of the four directions)), then press the print button. Out comes the picture with no fuss. It wont smudge and watching each color layer appear in succession is interesting, too. Take note: the printer comes with NO paper/ink. You must order it separately. And while the lab will certainly be cheaper, itll also take a lot longer and a trip to the store or waiting for the delivery. We got this printer to replace what Polaroids used to do... quickly print a picture with no fuss. It does that wonderfully.

I bought this product a couple of years ago for only 87.00 dollars now they are selling it for 3Xs the money. I wished I had bought 2 at that time. Anyway this is a great product the pictures come out fast clear and glossy I love it.

I have had this printer for years and it works great. Never any problems with it

I have purchased 3 other Sephfy printers and this one is even more awesome than the rest. Everyone that sees it thinks its so cool. I love the easy of use. Being able to format from the printer is its most attractive feature.
