Epson PictureMate Charm - Great Thoughts


by Brianna Tokita


With the PictureMate Charm, Epson continues to make use of the lunchbox-like portable style that was successful with its PictureMate Dash and PictureMate Zoom printers. The PictureMate Charm is a bit smaller and a small lighter than the two older goods. The PictureMate Charm also utilizes a smaller 2.5-inch LCD rather of the 3.6-inch LCDs in the PictureMate Dash and PictureMate Zoom.

The epson picturemate charm prints only 4 by 6 inch photos and has a maximum print resolution of 5760 by 1440 dots per inch. Based on Epson, the PictureMate Charm can print a photo in 37 seconds and pictures are dry as soon as they are out of the printer. The PictureMate Charm's consumables are sold as PictureMate Print Packs that consist of 150 sheets of either matte or glossy paper and ink for $38.

The PictureMate Charm has memory card slots and assistance for PictBridge so you are able to print without needing to connect for your Mac. The printer includes Automobile Photo Correction, which adjusts the color and exposure of your pictures, and there is also red eye correction. The PictureMate Charm also has various layouts, such as proof sheets, wallet size, boarders, and much more.

The PictureMate Charm needed anyplace from 54 to 70 seconds to print every of our 4-by-6-inch test prints, but they were worth the wait. It created flesh tones that looked wholesome and normal, it handled each fast-motion and landscape shots with aplomb, and it balanced lights and darks evenly in monochrome images. The on-board editing options are restricted to a few layouts, borders, and automated corrections based on image kind (such as a night scene or a landscape). In the event you install the printer on a Pc, you are able to do much more using the bundled Simple PhotoPrint application, which offers a wealth of editing, customizing, and printing options.

The functions on this snapshot printer are fundamental but nicely executed. It features a 20-sheet input tray for just 4-by-6-inch media; by contrast, the HP Photosmart A646 can take three different sizes. Sheets exit onto the flip-out front panel. Inside the front panel you will find two media slots for CompactFlash, Memory Stick, SD Card, and XD-Picture Card. A PictBridge port is in back. A Bluetooth option costs $39.

When you insert a media card into the printer, on-screen prompts walk you via the process of choosing and adjusting an image prior to you print it. The 2.5-inch, tiltable color LCD works with a row of eight buttons, all of that are labeled and largely intuitive. It's just a bit hard to tell how to cancel or back out of an option occasionally; the Stop/Clear button handles all such matters, but I was looking for a Back button.
