Problems with the CP-100 printer

MichaelMason · Apr 10, 2003

I have heard nothing but good things about the cp-100 printer, but since I bought mine a while back I have NEVER been satisfied with the quality of the prints. They aren't even close to 35 mm photo-lab quality prints. It seems to be that the three layers are not lining up properly and the result is that the photos are fuzzy. I have yet to come close to the sharp, "brilliant" quality advertized on the box and shown on the Canon homepage.

I am using a Canon PowerShot S200 camera set set to take large, superfine quality photos.

Has anyone else had these same propblems? Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

I have a CP-100 since it was available and I couldn't be happier with the quality of the output. The pictures are perfect, as far as I'm concerned, and the only way anyone can distinguish them from lab produced is that the back of the photo is a postcard!

If you're having problems, then (a) are your photos taken as sharp as you'd like them to be, and (b) maybe your printer is defective, and should be fixed/replaced by Canon.

All I can say is the one I have has been perfect.

Hope this helps.

Can you please tell me if you can pilot the printer from the pc instead of the camera? With indoor picturer I have to adjust brightness in 90% cases. Thank you ery much!

Yes, there is a computer connection kit available. I've not seen the need to purchase it for myself, however, so I can't tell you how well it works...
