Printer is great for the price
Printer quite clearly 5 stars, price / performance there is nothing to complain about
Photo quality can keep up with all these direct photo print boxes (Mediamarkt, partly at train stations) loose
Lab quality I would not call it but the photos are good. For an album more than sufficient.
The price per photo is not bad either, about 0.35Fr per picture. Without purchase, without electricity, the 108 pack KP108IN, at Fuji.ch you pay for 10*15 depending on the quantity 0.19(from 500 pictures) to 0.29(up to 100 pictures).
My point of criticism is the usability. Canon has a great app with which you can send pictures to the printer via WiFi. I find quite good and wanted to use this.
BUT the app wants with all force the location of the phone what I do not want to allow, otherwise this does not work and schlisst again. Thus, for me failed.
Alternative: loads the app on apkmonk, version of 7.3.18, there is not the location request in it.

Versatile, handy
Handy device, versatile. For us the question was instant camera or photo printer.
Photo printer was clearly the right decision: flexible use, photos from mobile or camera or PC can be printed.Pro
- handy
- Print from versch. Sources
- print quality
- one photo relatively cheap
Contra
- user menu on the device not always intuitive

Photo printer for on the go
Great printer that delivers great outputs.
Initially bought to fill a souvenir photo album at a family party, today any snapshots are printed and hung on the pinboard.
Super easy to use with great quality.Pro
- Super photos
- Easy to operate
Contra
- Has no battery, mains power is a must
- Paper / ink quite expensive

Good printer to get your photos on paper in good quality. Devaluation because of not fully functioning WIN-10 driver.
Because of the 2000-character limit here, only my problems with WLAN and the print apps:
First, the printer did not find the WLAN AP. It was transmitting on channel 13, but the printer can only transmit on channels 1 to 11. If possible, you should exclude channels 12 and 13 from the automatic channel assignment or assign a channel manually.
Then the AP was found by the printer, but no connection was possible. After I changed the encryption in the AP from WPA2 to WPA/WPA2, a connection was possible. Now I have changed the setting back to WPA2 and it works.
Setting up the printer driver on the Windows 7 laptop went smoothly. I have no success with the Windows 10 laptop. During the printer installation, no printer accessible via WLAN is found. The USB cable connection works without any problems and the data transfer is much faster.
Connection via Android apps (as of 12/2017).
CanonPRINT Inkjet/SELPHY: This app is suitable for many Canon printers, which is why there are also pointless settings for the CP1300. You have to follow the instructions when you first start it and register the printer in the app. You can print via the "Share" icon, the app is not displayed via the "Print" dialogue! You can set whether to print borderless (i.e. fitted) or with a margin.
Canon Print Service App (a print service): It automatically recognises the printer, can be accessed via "Print" or "Share" and sends the image to the printer without any further settings.
Mopria app (a print service for many different printers): It did not find the CP1300 printer itself, I had to enter the IP address of the printer. You can find it under "WLAN settings -> Confirm settings -> IPv4 address". The only thing you can actually set is whether you want to print with a border or borderless.Pro
- durable, good images
- Proven, functioning technology
Contra
- WLAN printer driver not working for WIN 10

High quality small printer.
Bought the printer for a wedding photo box.
The print quality and setup of the printer are great!
However, the speed is a little slow for a photo box. The printer takes about 40-60 seconds per image. It also looks strange when the picture comes out of the printer 3 times and is only finished on the 4th run.
The dye sublimation printer prints the 3 basic colours individually and a UV protective layer.Pro
- Print quality is very good
- User-friendly
- Very small/compact
- Can be operated with optional rechargeable battery
Contra
- Print speed per image
- A lot of waste because of cartridge change already after 50 sheets
