picturemate PM 225
on July 25, 2011
Posted by: Texan
from Texas
I purchased the printer, USB cable, package of glossy prints, battery, and bag. This was a gift for my wife in anticipation of our first grandchild. The printer is a wonderful setup such that the inkjet cartridge comes with the 200 4x6 photo paper, the pictures come out very nice...vivid and full of color. It also has some nice features to print antique and a border. Very easy to setup, and print. I am glad I bought the battery feature as well. One challenge is trying to find a specific picture in a memory card of 500 pics. I am sure there is a way, however I have not discovered. The printer allows you to view 6 at a time and it scrolls pretty fast, however I need to learn how to skip from beginning to end.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Scrapbooker's Dream!

After researching this printer for a year (wanted it last Christmas, decided to wait) and seeing it was still a top rated photo printer this year with great reviews, I took the plunge. And it was worth it!
True, as other reviewers indicated, supplies were pricy -- especially when compared to taking a CD to the store -- but when you live 40 minutes away from the nearest town offering photo services, this little printer is a life saver.
There seemed to be mixed reviews about whether or not red eye retouching was possible, and I couldn't find a way to do it, but Picasso is free software that works great and I've been busy retouching, cropping, printing and scrapbooking to my hearts content.

PictureMate225

My wife and I belong to an Air Stream RV club and we really love the PictureMate as one of the many times that we use it for is post Cards. My wife makes a vertical line on the back side and one side for the address and the other side for a small note as to were the picture was taken and etc.
This is the 4th PictureMate that I have owned. The three others were an older type but was very happy with them also. I gave one to each of my three kids as they also camp a lot.

Excellent Print Quality

Wireless, portable, and great picture quality rivaling lab prints, thus saving me the trip, time, and expense to the local lab. Sure it's not the fastest but what do you expect for the price? I wasn't a big fan of Epson printers but they out-did themselves with this product.

the pictures come out awesome, i bought it for my wife for scrap booking and she loves it. the only thing i would change is that it should come with the usb cable to hook it up to a computer, but other than that we are very satisfied.

ok for small scale

Printer prints nice pics. Slow, but I expected that. Issue that I had was trying to hook up to computer via USB. Software did not completely load. I am using a Mac, and when I try to add a printer then it won't completely load. The Epson disk won't completely load either. Epson site says to make sure that all updates are provided by manufacturer computer, which I ran through, but there are no updates available. I am stuck with having to use my SD card, which is fine, but you have to select pics one by one, which is a pain. I will likely use this printer for odds and ends type of picture printing, and find something better that works directly with iPhoto.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This printer prints photos that look like they were printed at the photo lab. I plan on taking pics of my nephew and scrapbooking on the go. Perfect product for the portability.

What a Charm
on June 11, 2014
Posted by: linda
from Tyler Texas
At first I was a little disappointed as I thought I had ordered a PM260 which I loved. After I saw this was a charm I started to send it back, but decided to give it a try. Love it as much or even more than the 260. I have 4 grandchildren and am always making pictures and printing them and this does a great job. I have even used it without the computer at birthday parties, etc. to make pictures and give to guests.
