Photos are much more permanent than inkjet, and are more crisp with better detail. Very pleased with the results.

Great service.......2007-01-10

The product was in manufacturer's box, brand new and shipped to me right away.
Highly reccomended

Excellent Quality and Price Per Picture.......2003-02-06

Dye sublimation photo prints are far superior to inkjet prints in clarity and durability. The picture quality from this cartridge and paper is excellent for the price. Since the paper and dye ribbon are changed in tandem, you are assured prints with no loss of color quality. When time is not an issue, I use an online digital photo processing service. With the Sony printer and Cartridge/Paper, you have the prints immediately! The photo print qualities are truly comparable.

Quality over Price.......2002-11-07

Sony's use of Dye-Sublimation technology produces a print quality that truly rivals traditional photo print processing. With 16 million true color capability, Ink Jet photo printers can't get close to the image quality of the Dye-Sub printers. One common complaint of the Sony Digital Photo Printer is the price of the printer materials (paper and ribbon), but when taking into consideration the superior quality and convenience of printing pictures at home, the material cost is very low.
After years in a dark room printing traditional photo prints, I would put the dye-sub quality up against traditional any day.

Amazon.com Product Description

You may never again have to wait for photo processing. Sony's snapshot photo printer prints directly from your digital camera; no PC is required. Simply insert Memory Stick media (or other removable flash media with an optional PC card adapter) to view, adjust, and print pictures all by yourself. Slide Show mode allows you to flick right through your saved images, selecting only the best for printing; once this is accomplished, chose from economical 3-by-4.5-inch or professional-looking borderless 4-by-6-inch prints. Each one takes just 90 seconds and features outstandingly vivid color and precise detail.

The printer connects to your PC or Mac via USB, allowing you to make use of saved images or specially filtered photos. Glossy, plain, and sticker paper all slide easily through the auto-feed tray. Sony includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

junk.......2007-12-22

This printer has always been a pain in the neck to use, since you needed to have sony memory sticks to make it work. Since I graduated several years ago to flash memory, I have to download the pictures to disc, then transfer them to the stick. Bad enough, but now the machine refuses to recognise the 4 - 6" prints. It will print the little 3 - 5", but when I put in the larger paper and cartridge, the same pictures come out blank. I am sooooo thrilled. Like I said, junk.

Mac Users Avoid This Product!!!!.......2005-04-01

I used this printer for quite some time with my Pismo running OS 9.2. When I purchased a Powerbook G4 running OS X, this printer was obsolete, i.e. no drivers available. Sony was absolutely not interested in making a driver for this printer and could not care less about the customer STUCK with this pathetic piece of equipment.

If you are a mac user forget it. This printer is not worth a dime. If you already have one, find a PC user to sell it to. Shame on Sony for not working with Apple. If I could give it a rating lower than 1 I would.

Some hints for getting the best output.......2005-02-26

This printer produces impressive output, although the colors have a little too much magenta. The resolution is specified as 403 dpi but to get a 1:1 pixel mapping from (say) photoshop you need to set the image resolution to 403.66 dpi.

It is correct that Sony do not officially make the Mac OS X drivers for this printer available for download. They do ship on the install CD though. A google search for "DPP-EX5_EX7" should locate the driver on the internet.

A great printer but for lack of a driver.......2004-07-18

I was delighted when my then-new Sony Digital Photo Printer DPP-SV77 worked on my Mac as advertised: bright, true colours printing in a reasonable amount of time...but when I upgraded to Mac OS X from OS 9.2.2, can you imagine how I felt when I discovered that Sony DOES NOT provide a printer driver for any version of OS X? I am unable to coax it to print in Classic (OS X's emulator for OS 9.x), and so the printer now lies in state on my desktop.

Since Sony now only supports Windoze, I can only warn other Mac users to STAY AWAY from this printer; it is NOT compatible with the current version of the Macintosh.

Great quality but colour levels are off a bit.......2003-09-28

The print quality on this little printer is fantastic....you would not be able to distinguish it from proffessional digital photo lab grade I'm sure. It can be used by itself and a Memory Stick (or other media card via a 'PC card'), plugged into a tv monitor or via a computer. To utilise it's built in effects options (such as gretting card and other visual effects) it must be connected to a tv set. Unfortunately you can not do this with the computer (which seems strange and unnessessary).

Loading paper is very simple. 25 quantity paper packs come with printer cartridges that last for 25 prints.
Print speed is very fast (90 secs) and watching the printing is rather satisfying to watch!
It will only print 4x6 or 3x4.

This printer should get a hands down 5 stars but it doesn't....

The red colour output is oversaturated. You will notice this particulary when you snap people. The skin tones come out way too warm (red) and really are not acceptable unless you touch up the image first via a program. However, by reducing the red tint, you sacrifice the rest of the colours in the image to an extent. The picture you are getting still is better than a dot matrix or lazer print image but you think what could have been if they had addressed this problem when they made it!

Bottom line. If you can pick one up cheap (like I did) and are prepared for the 'red issue', this is still much better than basic printers, otherwise, best to see what the newer models are like.
