The quality of the prints is amazing and as expected. I have noticed that this printer prints four by six photos quicker than my current all-in-one, but takes about the same time to print 8.5 x 11 photos it takes about two and quarter minutes to print a borderless 8.5 x 11 photo.

This photo printer is compatible with the following ink cartridges that do not cost a lot at all. It also tilts up or folds flat so you will never have a hard time seeing what is on the screen. You can see your images clearly and in full color on this LCD as it is 2.5 inches. It also shows you the status and other error notifications.
The LCD comes in handy when you want to print directly from the printer without a computer using your flash memory cards or even the camera itself. If you do not want to transfer your images from your camera to your computer, then this is a nice tool for you. There is a PictBridge port in the left top right corner so you can print directly from your compatible digital cameras or flash memory cards.
But the best way to learn what each button does and how to use them is to read the manual that is designed to provide a lot of information with details on how to operate this unit properly and efficiently. You can print photos right from the control panel without even having to connect to a computer. The control panel on this printer does not have too many buttons so you will not have to look at the manual (too often) to make this printer work for you. I personally like this as I sometime do move my setup around for a better look.
And it only weighs about 18.7 pounds so almost anyone can carry, move, or install it with much hassle. This photo printer is only 17.59 inches wide, 6.28 inches high, and 15.16 inches in depth this is a very compact printer so it will not take up too much room on your desk.
