The Bottom Line	This portable photo printer produces quality output, but we wish it ran on batteries. It could stand to be a lot faster, too.	A color LCD and an optional battery pack make this Epson snapshot printer a formidable portable photo lab.	The Epson PictureMate Dash printer is impressive in every way except for print quality.	With its range of features, decent print quality, and fast print speeds, the Epson PictureMate Snap is a solid choice for snapshooters who want an at-home photo lab.	The HP Photosmart 475 is a portable snapshot printer with sufficient useful features to distract from its ho-hum quality.
