So far, I have seen great products from Olympus in terms of digital cameras. Now they have sent me the Camedia P-10 digital photo printer. This cubist printer is small, "boxy" looking, and prints 4”x6” and smaller prints.<br /><br />It is a much nicer looking photo printer then any I have seen. Previously I reviewed the Sony DPP-EX7 photo printer. It did not look anywhere close to the P-10. It had some nicer features like an LCD screen, but it wasn’t the prettiest looking object on my desktop."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/pic1.jpg" /><br /><br />The reviewer really likes the look of this cubic printer. And luckily it prints well too. "It prints very well in quality, but I found the colors on the Sony DPP-EX7 a little richer than the Olympus P-10. Both printers use dye-sublimation as a process of printing." One of the drawbacks however, is the P-10 does not take any input other than the PC. But if you are looking for a small form factor, workhorse printer in the $199 price range, this may be for you, and you should definitely check out this review.

This looks really cool - I like the design. It's strange, I have a great photo printer already, but there's something cool about a tiny printer that's designed to do one thing well: print 4x6 images. :-)

Even though it is a nice unit and well priced, it is unfortunately not for me because I would much rather have a printer that is capable of printing 8.5x11 as well.
