"Nice if you like 20th century-style photo printing"
What I like:
It's nicely built
What I don't like:
The print quality does not match up to the high price
Review:
Tried running this with Photoshop CS2 and my Canon EOS 350D camera. The results were far poorer than my friend’s £50 Kodak photo printer (yes we tried all the colour profiles etc). The prints just look very old fashioned in comparison to other contemporary printers. My friends immediately pointed out the streaking effect you can see so clearly if the pictures are tilted a few degrees. This confirmed my fears and the printer went back for a refund. Very poor value for money and your other half won’t appreciate his or her skin tinged with green.
