Pros

Print quality is very good to excellent; big LCD doubles as digital photo frame; easy to operate
Excellent print quality. 7? LCD display is bright and colorful. Slideshow section provides fun transitions and visualizations. Very easy to use and the remote control couldn’t be any simpler and portable. Setup was very painless and the device
It's a digital photo frame and printer all in one. Prints dazzling 4x6 snaps in about 38 seconds. Print directly from your memory card or an attached Mac. Supports tons of memory card formats.
Very nice photo quality; integrated digital frame.
Very nice photo quality, Integrated digital frame.
Fast. Low cost per photo. WVGA 7-inch color LCD. High-quality 4-by-6 output. Internal memory for storing photos.

Cons

Pricey; prints photos only at 4x6-inch; slide-show function fraught with limitations; no battery option
Would have liked the display to be a touchscreen. Device does not let you multitask while printing. Printer a bit pricey for a designated photo printer, but like they say you get what you pay for.
Pricey for a compact photo printer. Ink only available in bundles with paper.
Accepts only 4-by-6-inch paper; somewhat limited layout options.
Accepts only 4by6inch paper, Somewhat limited layout options
Relatively big and heavy. Expensive.

The PictureMate Show PM 300 is a snapshot printer and more: Epson has integrated a digital frame into its design. Getting two products in one makes the PictureMate Show's relatively high price more palatable. Product:PictureMate Show PM 300Rating...
