Overview

The Canon Selphy CP780 is a compact dye-sublimation photo printer designed for high-quality instant photo printing. It utilizes 300x300 dpi thermal dye-sublimation technology to produce durable, smudge-proof prints with continuous-tone color output. The device supports multiple input methods including USB and PictBridge, allowing direct printing from compatible cameras and computers. It offers card slot compatibility for SD, Memory Stick, CF, and MMC media, enhancing its versatility for mobile image printing. The printer is controlled via a color LCD screen that facilitates easy navigation and setting adjustments. With a print speed of approximately 47 seconds per 4x6 inch photo, it is optimized for rapid photo output in office and home environments.

Its compact dimensions (approximately 196 x 157 x 63 mm) and light weight (about 1.2 kg) make it highly portable. The dye-sub print system uses a dedicated paper and three color inks embedded in a single ribbon for seamless color blending. Print longevity is enhanced with water-resistant coatings on the final output. Power options include AC adapter and optional battery pack for mobile use, increasing its operational flexibility.

Limitations

The Selphy CP780 uses proprietary Canon paper and ink ribbons, which may be costlier and less widely available than standard ink cartridges.
The maximum print resolution of 300x300 dpi may not satisfy users seeking ultra-high resolution prints.
It prints only fixed 4x6 inch photos, lacking flexibility for other paper sizes or formats.
There is no wireless printing option such as Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, limiting connectivity to physical connections only.
The absence of advanced photo editing features requires pre-editing on a PC or camera before printing.
The printer’s consumable components require frequent replacement to maintain quality and operation.
