Amazon.com Product Review

An entertaining and logical accessory to your digital camera, the Polaroid P-500 digital photo printer allows you to print your photos anyplace, anytime, with no more hassle than inserting a CompactFlash or SmartMedia card and choosing your picture. As the P-500 uses Polaroid Type 500 instant film, it requires no batteries or power cords. Both JPEG and DPOF files can be used, and the printer automatically resizes your shots for optimum quality in just 20 seconds. Weighing in at just 18 ounces, this small printer can be tucked into your backpack or camera bag for instant prints at corporate events or family gatherings. Polaroid includes a one-year warranty on parts and service.

1.0 out of 5 stars Won't work with large-capacity Smart Media Cards, May 16, 2002

What's not on the web site, and which I discovered only after buying it and opening it and some paper: while any size Compact Flash card will apparently work, this printer will accept only 32 meg Smart Media cards and smaller. Since I have (and need!) a 128 meg card for my Fuji 4700, the printer is useless to me--all I get is a card error message. It's a pity, because the price is right & it seems like a delightful toy.

This printer does not work with 64MB and 128MB Smart Media cards. I verified this on the Polaroid website (deeply buried, of course!)

With Polaroid's brand name and cheap price on this printer, I had to get it and try it.And wow, I'm impressed. This package comes with everything you need to get started! Even an extra adapter and film so you can print right out of the box. The setup is easy and the instructions are made so you can stick it on the printer if you forget. What's great is that the printer accepts BOTH CF and SM cards. Now you can give photos away to people and they will be surprised at how you printed them so fast and because the picture source is from a digital camera you can select what photos you wanted printed and how many times.The quality of the photos are superb just like those instant Polaroids everyone used to have, this prints a smaller rectangular verison with the photo about the size of a credit card; great wallet prints!
