Picture perfect prints, on-board screen, pc-less use, fast data port, supports all media, decent software bundel.

slow it higher resolutions, expensive ink, paper and no usb cord in box.

This in my opinion blows away the compatition. The photos come out far better than what you can get at the store. I will agree with going to the store for mass quantities of 4x6 prints though. if what you want is a 8x10 or 8.5x11 get this printer. another thing is if you have proffessional prints and a scanner this will make awsome reprints for you. the software that comes in the box is ok,but i would opt for photoshop if you have any plans of producing proffessional prints. the problem i see with this is he ink,but like all other printers ink is an issuse. otherwise it is great
