Amazon.com Product Review

Sony's UP-DP10 photo printer gives you the ultimate in high-quality photo printing. This unit uses sublimation printing to bring you continuous-tone results--similar to the kind of quality you'd get at your local photo lab--and is a perfect companion to a digital camera.

We found the printer very easy to use. Extremely compact and lightweight, the UP-DP10 is about the height and width of a piece of paper, with a thickness of about 2 inches. The unit takes special ink ribbon cartridges and uses unique paper that is perforated on both edges and that has blank tear-off strips on either side of the photograph (which results in a professional-looking photograph). Both the cartridges and the paper tray were simple to insert.

The printer performs laminate processing on the photos as they print--a process that prevents the photos from becoming discolored over time, a normal occurrence when photos are printed from an ink-jet printer. You can choose among glossy, textured, or matte finishes for your photos. The UP-DP10 produces amazing results, printing photos that are of true photographic quality. Just be sure to set your page setup to landscape mode if your image is horizontal, or your image will be split between two sheets.

The only drawback to the UP-DP10 is that the paper/ink cartridge sets are a little pricey. However, if you're printing only the photos you want, using the UP-DP10 could end up being less expensive than having your film processed by a lab.

The printer has both USB and parallel connections and is compatible with both Macintosh and Windows 95 or 98.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sony UP-DP10, August 9, 2000

A great photo printer. Setup (USB) was a snap on a W98SE PC. The only complaint I have is that the documentation is a bit sparse. I had trouble printing the whole picture on the paper until I used the supplied software to resize the picture. It took some playing to get it right, but the results from my Sony FD-91 are great...

From the moment the Sony UP-DP10 printer arrived, everything has gone smoothly. The USB interface works, the software installed easily (and works once installed), and the pictures are spectacular (to say the least). It is even small and unobtrusive on the desktop -- it fits where a "standard" printer wouldn't.I'm very happy with this printer!

I have the Kodak DX3500 digital camera and it's great to work with. I also have several printers, all HP. The problem with printing 4x6 pictures is that the paper doesn't always feed correctly. I have several friends who have HP inkjet printers and they all have the same problem. Can't tell you how much paper and how many cartridges I've gone through trying to get scanned photos or direct download from the Kodak to print on my wide bed HP. When I saw this I decided to give it a try, and I love it! It's very compact, very quiet and prints beautiful pictures that are photo processing quality. The greatest thing is that it is a thermal print so the pictures never fade as they do with regular inkjet. This printer uses a specialty ribbon and paper and yes the print packs are a little pricey ($15 - $20 each for 25 prints), but considering the quality of the pictures and what you save in premium photo paper it's well worth the price (and remember your memories will never fade). And if...Read more
