Epson PictureMate PM-400 Wireless Compact Color Photo Printer, white

I was looking for a home printer that prints 4x6 prints so I don't have to squint at tiny photos of my son in albums (that I will eventually compile, I know, bad millenial mom) AND frame some of those awesome photos. I had an LG pocket photo printer, though worked well, was kinda pricey in terms of paper and definitely printed SMALL photos for my 34-year old ageing eyes. Yes, I wear glasses. Those tiny photos are good enough for tacking on to your office cubicle, but not really good for framing for the living room. The quality is also so-so. If you like Instagram filters, yes. But now that I'm trying to be more adult and responsible, I have outgrown its purpose. So, I went on a hunt for a home printer that prints photos wirelessly from phones, that can print beyond credit card sized momentos (very specific). I do own an HP office printer. It is 5 years old and still works well. I do not want to bankrupt myself printing photos of my son through said printer, even with their ink subscription. Their app also don't work well with the phone. And because of how horrible printers are, I do not want to mess with buying another home office printer until mine dies. It's like rolling the dice, you won't know if the next one will be a bust. I focused my search on photo printers and narrowed it down to the Selphy and this gem. I can't believe that at 2022, when humans have made rovers to get to Mars, and made mRNA vaccines to fight a pandemic... we only have 2 sad options for this particular niche. What I didn't like about the Selphy was it wasn't true 4x6 in size. I did not want to have any cropping errors or specific albums/frames not fitting the photos. Mostly, I didn't like the picture quality. I have seen how the Selphy performs since it's the most common printer used in wedding picture booths in my home country. Though good enough, it's not a vibrant and realistic as it should be. I also don't like the sides of the photos having "tear" uneven ends. Enter this printer. Holy crap. My phone photos look so realistic. Coming from a simple Google Pixel 5a, unedited photos (apart from those edits the default Camera algorithm applied to balance exposure, etc) look NICE. Skin looks real. I WANT to frame the photos, which is what my goal was. Setup was a breeze. Just remove all the plastic you see. Pop the ink in. Type your wifi info on the printer (OMG it worked on 1 try!). Install the app on your phone... and Viola! You are printing your photos. From my phone, I can easily click "Share" to the app and do different layouts if I want to collage, or just print as is. It literally does all I want. And I can't believe this printer is so OLD, and no one has updated this thing. The app has been updated yes, but the hardware of this printer remains the same. Printers are lagging in innovation, but I guess this Epson doesn't need much improvement if it does what it needs to do. The ink and paper are affordable too. No more using "I have to go to CVS to pick up prints, UGH" as an excuse to procrastinate on printing photos of my son. I am now a TRUE mother. I have a photo of my son in my wallet, after almost 2 years of him being alive. Thank you, Epson PictureMate.

Ive wanted a photo printer for the longest. This device prints quickly and professionally. I absolutely love it. I replaced the ink once but that was probably after 60+ photos. If you are looking for quality, this is IT! Easy assembly. Love the monitor. Display screen is great. I am so very pleased with this purchase.

I was shooting an event info ever year for a client where they have me print portraits of attendees to give out as party favors at the end of the event. In previous years I used a HITI printer but it died in me in the middle of my 3rd time using it. And it was just out of warranty. As big as it was it was going to cost $75 just to ship it to CA to get diagnosed which means even more $ to fix. After spending over $600 to purchase it I determined $200 per event before it breaks is not worth it. Did my research and this little printer kept coming up and was even suggested by B&H AND Adorama. Waited for Black Friday to get it on sale which I did and felt like I won a mini lottery. This printer was SO simple to set up and test printing where I barely needed to go through the instructions. I had absolutely ZERO issues with it at the event except that I wish the ink cartridge lasted longer. I had to switch cartridges just at the end which means I have a 95% cartridge sitting in it now with little need to print until the next years event. Looks like I will need to find images to print as it recommends not letting it sit for more than 6 months. What I did print at the event met the expectations as far as quality and attendees were so excited and thankful to get their portraits at the end of the party. Now I won’t be dreading this event with the printing that comes with it!

Amazing photo printer. Super fast and easy to setup, connect to Wi-Fi or the mobile app. Works great with no problems....none. Photos are better than any department store prints. It's like having your own personal mini photo lab at home.

Very easy to set up and print with. The prints look good, even compared to my larger fancier photo printer. I wanted to be able to quickly print test prints and to not wait until I was ready to print and cut up a bunch of photos printed on 13x19 paper. I've used it directly from Lightroom via WiFi and via SD card. It's small, will print soon after powering on. I hope it holds up well in the long run. I haven't tested photos from this printer against final prints from my pro lab, but I will be shortly. It is perfect for how I'm using it and I can see many other ways it could be used if I needed to print small prints at an event, or for a client. As a photographer I find it helpful to print frequently to sort, sequence, and compare photos, and get a better sense of their final look (print) and looking at them printed gives me ideas about cropping and color adjustments, vs working solely from a screen. Would be a great home photo printer for anyone wanting to churn out small prints, or for a photographer providing drafts and proofs to clients

My wife has built photo books for each of my Granddaughters for the last 16 years. She prints the years photos, and then makes a movie using a movie app. She has worn out a couple of printers, Epson earlier versions. The amazing photo quality of these printers makes it possible to do her remarkable work, a WORK OF PURE LOVE FOR OUR GRANDDAUGHTERS. This particular printer was bought as a gift for the Granddaughter, so that she can now start building her own life book. I highly recommend this printer for its extreme high quality and convenience. We also bought a second printer for my wife, to make sure her printer is available in case something happens to her primary printer. THESE PRINTERS BEAT ANY OTHER printer available! If you want real photos that people can hold in their hands and keep forever, hang on a wall, and display with pride, this is it.

It captures every nuance, bringing my photos to life. Plus, the photos are smudge-proof and durable, which is perfect for creating photo albums or framing them for display. The compact size of the printer is another highlight. It takes up very little space, making it ideal for small apartments or offices. I can easily fit it on my desk or even take it with me when I'm traveling. The design is sleek and modern, blending seamlessly with my other devices. Setting up the printer was a breeze. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and I was up and running in no time.

Great product. Nice and light and compact if wanting to take on a trip. Easy to connect and your up and running in about 5mins. It prints amazing photos packs a real punch.

Gran calidad de impresión!!

El equipo llego 1 dia después, pero todo bien. Lo único es que la tinta se me ha complicado encontrarla, (necesito que no venga en KIT con papel por que yo uso papel mate, no glosy) pero si he encontrado.

Received the PM 400 in April 2025. It was extremely easy with the quick guide to connect it and get up and running. The machine came with ink and photo paper in the box. All ready to connect and start printing your photos. I probably had it connected and printing within half and hour. The print quality is amazing and looks like your photos were printed in a commercial establishment and not your own home! You can print in different sizes i.e. 4 x 6, 5 x 7 or wallet size. This machine is ready for action when you're ready to print some of the photos languishing on your phone or computer! Ink refills and photo paper are very reasonable to purchase. Absolutely love this mighty machine which is a work horse!
