## Questions & Answers

**Q: can you print from apple laptop**
A: It does work with many of Apple's software versions.  Google the item and check top see if yours is one of them.

**Q: Can I print from a digital camera**
A: As long as you have a small USB connection to connect the printer to the camera you should be able. Remember this printer is about mid 1990 year old technology. My camera is the same generation, a Canon A610 one of the first digital cameras. It has a small USB port that connects to the printer’s print cable.

**Q: can this print directly from an iphone 4 or 5**
A: I have an iphone 5 too, and sorry but it does not work with them.

**Q: Does it come with paper and ink?**
A: I believe that it comes with one ink cartridge and one cleaner cartridge. The original package came with one package of paper (20 prints)

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ Not pleased, even with the price!
*by S***E on September 11, 2006*

I know I am going against the grain of all these glowing reviews but here is what I have found.1. No USB cord provided!2. You have to buy a special paper (they don't state what it is in the book) that has tear off tabs at both ends and narrower than most 4x6 paper. Paper needed is HARD TO FIND. Regular Canon 4x6 paper DOES NOT WORK! I've tried many other brands, none fit or print.3. Ink cartridge only prints 5 SHEETS! These cartridges are also hard to find. (meaning you can't always pop out to Walmart or an office supply to get it.)4. NOT INTUITIVE. MUST READ MANUAL and it is still not clear.5. Battery not included, must buy seperately.6. You have to buy any other paper cassette size separately (not included)Conclusion: May be cheap but you'll pay and pay for the supplies to keep it running!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality prints
*by A***R on April 27, 2006*

This is an excellent photo printer. I'm a photo enthusiast and I've had photos printed from online shops like Kodakgallery and printed the same photos on this printer for comparison. I can't tell any difference between the photos from the online print shops and the ones from the printer. The only annoying thing about this printer is that the print proportions do not exactly fit 4x6 print proportions. For most people this won't be a problem, but because I very carefully crop my photos so that exactly what I crop is what will print, it's annoying that pieces of the photo get cut off. I get around this by adjusting the length width proportions so that they will fit on the printer page.

### ⭐⭐ Very tempermental & problematic
*by E***O on August 19, 2013*

Purchased new, on/off button is problematic....takes a while to get it to turn on, sometimes it won't work and you have to remove and re-install ink cartridge and paper tray for it to work. I didn't know this was now an obslete printer from Canon...they do not even carry the supplies for it...there's a modern version several grades higher than this.
