and cost about $30 for the photo pack ( seems a fair price for 100 prints)

well as no 1 awnsered i got me the cp780 - $99 + 2 paqcks of ink/paper for another $65

and can i just say WOWWWWWWWw

blows me away with the quality of the prints

diffrence is BTW - the 90 can edit photos (crop - frame + some other stuff)
But for an extra $80 - i think i can do without and just take good photos to start with

I am thinking about getting teh CP760. I think they use the same printing technology though. How do you like your prints now? Is it working out cost effective for you?

i love this printer - im gona do a review on it after this next shoot i have im gona use it to print on site for a 1st birthday party and im gona print 75-100 photos as fast as i can

But so far it dose great quality prints - no blead - 55-60 seconds a print - takes up a bit of room as the photo goes in and out of the front and back as it lays the diffrent ink coats

i would recomend this printer to any 1 looking to print 4x6 prints

oh and cost per print is between $0.31 and $0.36 depending on where you but the ink and paper packets - comes with dye catriage and paper in the box - i get mine in the 108 pack so 4 paper and 3 dye enough for all 108 prints no more no less

I just picked up the CP780 to do on site 4x6 at a fundraiser adult party for my little league football team. I've tested it and the prints are actually pretty good. I normally don't do on site printing but figured I'd try this out.


Canon 1DMKIIN, 7D, 40D, 70-200 f/2.8L IS, 17-40 f4L, 28-135mm IS, 85mm 1.8, 35mm 2.0, 50mm 1.8, , 18-55mm kit, 430EX II, 580EX II (2), AB800 x 2
Tamron 17-50 f/2.8

I have a Selphy CP600 that I've used quite a bit for the past few years. It's a really nice little proof printer, but my only complaint is that you can't get a printer profile for it.

Do the newer Selphy's have printer profiles?
