Performance
Dye-sublimation printers are usually slower than inkjet and laser printers, due to the amount of time it takes for the ink to cool once it's applied to the paper. For our speed tests, we connected the printer to a desktop using a USB cable in order to standardize the average print speed. The Selphy CP760 printed a photo at an average rate of 0.79 picture per minute, faster than last year's Selphy CP740, and Epson's Picturemate Pal PM200 and PictureMate Snap. These types of printers are marketed as fast, easy-to-use printers that people can use at social gatherings immediately after taking a photo, and we're impressed that Canon is still ahead of the competition. The Selphy handled a wide range of color with precise detail and separation. Our pictures had a soft feel to them and could use a warmer tone, but we feel comfortable recommending the CP760 for the amateur photographer and home user.
