Admittedly most my images are viewed online these days and when I want something larger than 4x6 I use Costco. While my portable photo printing still relies on Selphy printers their cost&speed have a lot to be desired so for not so portable applications I purchased a QW410. I like the speed, quality and 150 print media sets. I've used both MAC&Win systems with it. I wished the wireless option came with it (just ordered it) but so far having it cabled is not a show stopper for the events I've used it with. Replacing the media is quick and easy. While I still have not figured out how to get anything but 'glossy' prints out of it everyone loves the prints. The optional 'hot folder' software allowed me to chain together a series of scripts to resize+brand+event tag images for printing and drop them off in the folder for printing. I suppose this printer is limited by the same supplies issues that all printers have. I just hope that DNP and B&H keep offering media sets for as long as my QW410 is functional.

I have used this combo with my PictureMate Charm personal photo lab for sometime. Never once, have I gotten a bad print. The ink, colors pop, the paper is simple the best matte paper on the market. I have used all of the available name brands paper and portable printers, and I have found there is none that comes close to the PictureMate charm and its ink/paper. The high gloss paper in the 200 series is great also, if you prefer a gloss finish. But for professional quality/luster, eye poping colors, semi sheen output, the Matte paper is simply the best. I am a avid user of epsons printers large and small. Their papers and inks are unrivaled. The Epson company just went away from the 200 series product portable lab  printers, for a new portable printer, that really isnt portable. Unlike the 200 series, which has a battery operation capability, the new printer does not.  I tried their new photo portable lab, and while it is good, it does not reach the level of the 200 series printers. Last month alone, I printed 3600 4X6 prints on my 225 charm, all without one failure or bad print. I never had a requirement to clean or adjust/align the printer heads either. Its so good, I havent used my large format printers for 4X6 in months.
