 Super fast, great looking prints. December 3, 2008
Micah O. Drushal (Nashville, TN)
I purchased this printer to use in a photo booth that I'm building for my wedding in January. I did a lot of research to find the fastest but still good looking prints. The PM260 delivers! The first print can be in your hands in about a minute and additional prints will be done in about 45 seconds. The quality is astounding. I've used up the initial cartridge and paper in testing my photo booth software and every print looked great.
One thing that did surprise me was the size of the printer. It's not massive, just bigger than the picture makes it out to look. Still very portable and easy to put away. It's very portable and the included handle is pretty cool. You can even purchase a battery and do totally portable prints. One feature that I really appreciated was a little strap on the power supply cord that allows you to wrap up the whole thing and hold it together.
Like most printers if you want to connect it to your computer you'll need a USB cable.
I haven't used the memory card slots or fancy in-printer editing features so I can't speak to those features.
 Great Product! November 29, 2008

If you want to pay $7.45 per 4x6 print for the first 20 you make, then this is the printer for you. Additional 4x6 prints will cost you $0.75 each.
I am a photographer with several of Epson's Professional Printers so when it came to selecting a family printer that we could use to print snaps, Epson was an easy choice for me to make. Oh how wrong I was.
This printer is a complete waste of your money and if you have a green - i.e. you care about the environment - bone in your body you will be especially upset. Epson have the starter cartridge set print about 20 sheets. You will then need to spend about 40USD buying a new print pack which includes ink and 150 sheets of additional paper. Forget that you still have 30 sheets from your original starter pack. The new cartridge will come nowhere close to printing the claimed 150 sheets, managing only 50 to 90 sheets.
So now you have the original 30 sheets left from the starter pack and now you are adding between 60 and 100 sheets left over from your first full print pack. Buy another print pack... and repeat.. Sigh.
There was a time when Epson would have been embarrassed to release a product like this.
