Summary: Your Order Has Been Shipped -- I Mean Cancelled.
Comment: I ordered and paid for a Canon SELPHY DS810 Photo Printer through Ritz Camera and received the usual multiple emails thankin me for my order, informing me that my printer "has been shipped," and then "your order has been cancelled" because the item was no longer available. Hmmm...
So which is it? Has the item been shipped, or has the order been cancelled. I don't know if this is a function of Amazon.com or of Ritz Camera, but I do know I won't believe it when they say an item is "in stock" or "had been shipped." Lies, all lies.

Summary: I'm no tech weanie..
Comment: I don't really have a problem with the printer, it actually seems to be working fine. My issue is with the fact that it didn't come with a USB cable, so I had to go to the local office supply store and get one. The second is just as minor, but still annoying, The printer does not support 4 gig SD cards so I had to go buy a smaller SD card. Before I purchased the printer, I contacted the good people at Amazon and asked them a few questions. The person assured me that a 4 gig would be fine, a little much, but should work fine. After receiving the unit, getting the USB cable and setting everything up, I went and took a few test pictures (I also purchased a new camcorder) then I went to test the printer but could not get it to recognize the card. I made a few troubleshooting attempts, but to no avail. I called the Canon tech support center and the gentleman quickly identified the problem. The printer works great and the product overview said it came with no USB cable, but I wish the tech limitations were a little more clear.

Summary: WONDERFUL LITTLE MACHINE!
Comment: WOW! I have read some pretty aweful reviews on this. Well I am hear to tell you that i am very happy with this printer, i have had NOT 1 problem with it and i use it almost everyday, the colors are wonderful, the pictures turn out great i love it. People who have had trouble with this either got a bad one that was defective or are very very very PICKY people. For the money you spend on this printer what do you expect miracles? I only wish you could print larger photos with it and that is my only problem... I love it, love it, love it... WONDERFUL machine don't let all the other negative picky people change your mind on this printer, you will love it also. And for the price you can't go wrong i'm telling ya..Get it..

Summary: Just okay
Comment: This printer is okay. I actually don't use it as much as I thought I would. I go the pharmacy machine as it is faster. Also if they get smudged I don't have to pay for them there. I have had a few pictures print out smudged. I wish it has more options. It's okay, but I probably wouldn't purchase it again.

Summary: Nice printer, ink can give you some trouble
Comment: We bought this printer as a way to generate quick 4x6 prints of reasonable quality. I must say the printer delivers quite well. The image quality is much better than I expected, its not the quality you'll get a professional photo place, but it is pretty close, better than you could hope for at the price. The print time is also quite reasonable, 1-2 minutes even for images with lots of different colors.
The only real down side is the ink gets settled pretty quickly. Our first test prints would not come out, and I was ready to ship the thing back. After digging around online, I found out about cleaning the cartridge (see owners manual for how to instructions). After doing a deep head clean of the cartridge, the images came out crystal clear. So if you run into that problem, just run the head cleaning (i only had to do it once, but read about people that had to do it 2 - 3 times) and that should get the printer going again.
All in for what you pay versus what you get, this printer is a great deal.
