Customer Reviews For Canon Selphy CP780 Silver Compact Photo Printer

Fantastic quality but NO USB CABLE included
 
Review Date: November 17, 2009
Reviewer: E. Gamble,
The print quality is fantastic. Truly. Just as good as when you order prints through an online printhouse. Very easy to use. Print cost averages around 30 cents. Significantly lower than competitors and you aren't sacrficing quality.

Two criticisms only. This printer doesn't come w/ a USB cable. When I called Canon about it, they said that they are no longer including USB cables to save customers money (ha, ha) because most people are replacing printers nowadays. My frustration is that this is a photo printer and not the main one, thus you actually do need a separate USB cable. Plan on purchasing one separately.

Secondly, when you are printing from your memory card (super easy) you are very limited in editing options. You cannot shift or crop the image. That said, I went to hook it up to the computer, but can't because of the missing cable. Frustrating glitch on such a super quality product.

Overall, we are thrilled w/ the print quality. Definitely worth purchasing.
Nice little printer for the price

I purchased the Selphy CP-780 as a replacement for my CP-720, which was a replacementt for my CP-220, while there wasn't anything wrong with the CP-720 I just wanted the newer model. Right away a few things I noticed.

Its faster (print wise and starting/turning off), buttons and layout of menu's are much nicer and more refined. The paper tray has been redesigned and much easier to open/load.

The picture quality doesn't look any different but I always thought it was pretty impressive anyways. I did notice the sample paper it comes with is no longer has a post card on the back, I requested this paper many moons ago when I had the CP-220. At the time they said there was no demand (ya right). Anyways once I use up the 300+ postcard I had stocked up on, I'll be happy to move onto regular photo paper with a blank back.


I currently only have 2 cons with this new printer and they are very minor if anything.

1. Canon no longer includes a USB (Type B) cable. Come on what does this run like 30 cents?
2. They removed the built in micro usb cable that the CP-720 had (not a huge deal because it still has the ports on the side, and chances are you have a USB (A or B) cable laying around.
Easy to Operate

We bought this printer to use for a photo guest-book at my daughter's wedding. We had it on a table with an AC power source and printed the pictures as they were taken by putting the memory card (from a Canon P&S camera) in the printer. It performed flawlessly outside in mid 80s F temperatures operated by two people who had never seen the printer before. I provided a small sheet of written instructions and they did the rest. The picture color and brightness were correct every time with no computer program processing involved. It made a great day even better with a ton of memories safely preserved.
This Printer is Great For Portability

Reviewer: Ms_Ladi,
Because I didn't want to dish out the overpriced dollars for the Canon iP100, I looked for something on a smaller priced scale. I did minimal research because I knew I wanted a Canon.

The latest Canon CP780 does the job it's advertised. My printed photos are rich and colorful. One minute print times are okay, and the paper/ink sets (sold separately) fully coincide with the printer. I haven't had any snags or stuck papers. The printer doesn't take up any space at all in my living space.

A couple of complaints. I agree with other reviewers about some of my photos having cut off heads during printing. It's only a few photos I've had a problem with, but it's not great.

The other issue is the 4x6 photo size. I would love to have the option to print on 3x2 to make for an even more intimate photo collection. Currently, when my photos come up, I have to tweak the settings to print them on half a sheet. Now I have about 50 half sheets of unused photos! And no, you cannot use the other half of the photo for a different picture. It would be nice to have various sample sizes of paper (and cassettes) included in the box.

One more thing is it would be nice to have a battery and bluetooth included. With current technology the way it is, the assumed portability of this printer, I should be able to open the box and start printing without going through the hassle of finding a plug, hooking it up, etc. That's why it's considered portable. I would pay an extra $20 for this printer if those items were included. My opinion.

A note on customer service: My printer for some reason didn't come with the sample 5-sheet print pack, so instead of me sending the printer back, Amazon refunded me a small percentage. I love their customer service!
3 Straight hours of printing with no problems

Reviewer: Number2Pencil, Los Angeles, CA USA
I used this at a wedding recently. We kept printing for 3 straight hours (including changing cartridges) without any problems. People were amazed at how clear and sharp the photos were.

We did notice that the photos came out 1-2 stop darker than displayed on our computer. So we just brightened up the shots by 1-2 stops and problem was solved. Each photo takes about 45-50 seconds to print.
