I've had issues, issues, and issues with standard photo printers all the time. Works the first night I get it and every other time I want to use it they either stop making ink or it just doesn't work with any of my computers or phones. Of course this thing is smaller. But ink-free, compact and working when you need it? Couldn't ask for more. The color of the image is slightly greener than the original. So if you need accuracy in that aspect I would dig a little deeper to find a printer. The application is very easy to use, loading paper is easy. Overall very happy with this purchase.
