Digital camera reviews of Epson T5846 Picturemate 200-series print pack (includes ink & paper), glossy, 4 x 6, 150 sheets
Digital camera Review: Pictures are postcard perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
I used my Picture Mate personal photo lab to print scenic shots taken during a recent visit to Acadia National Park in Maine. The color quality of the prints was so outstanding that you would think the prints were store-bought postcards. A message did pop up suggesting that it was time to replace the color cartridge before the entire pack of glossy papers were used. However, I simply removed the cartridge, gave it a good shake and inserted it back into the Picture Mate. This allowed me to print a dozen more pictures.Digital camera Review: Product Not NEW
Summary: 1 Stars
This product did not arrive new. It came with refilled ink. The Epson photo cartridges have ink that is archival and fade resistant. I can't be sure that the ink that was refilled in this cartridge was the quality of the ink that Epson uses. I was VERY disappointed. There was no time to return as my family was just about to leave on a vacation where we were taking the printer (and cartridge) to a family memeber's house. We had many pictures to print, and we had to use the faulty cartridge.Digital camera Review: T5846, Epson PM 240 ink & paper
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been very happy with this purchase so far. I have used about half of the ink in the pack so far. I like the idea of getting one new cartridge vs. 6 separate ones. I was always out of one or the other before and now it seems like I will waste less ink this way.Digital camera Review: The best yet!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried all printers and inks. I am a pro photographer. If you want to put ink to the test then use any printer except Epson. Use any ink except Epson.
1. Print your photo
2. Put water on it
3. Watch it smear everywhere
That is why I only use Epson Printers and Epson Inks Period! Get water on it, and it does not go away.
Very Fast Shipping
Digital camera Review: WARNING! Be careful when ordering this print pack!
Summary: 1 Stars
This print pack is not labeled well. It does not say whether it is a T5570, T5570-M, "270", T5846, or T5845-M print pack. They are not cross-compatible.
If you have a PictureMate Pal, Snap, or Flash printer, you should order ONLY the T5846 for 150 glossy prints OR the T5845-M for 100 matte prints.
If the box does not specifically say that it is for PictureMate Series 200 printers (Pal, Snap, and Flash) such as the T5846 or T5845-M packs - DON'T BUY IT! You will end up with the wrong size cartridge. T5570, T5570-M, and "270" cartridges are not compatible with the PictureMate 200 series.
For 150 glossy prints, stick to T5846, such as:
* T5846 ASIN-B000IT4O0A
* T5846 ASIN-B000KJBRK8
* T5846 ASIN-B000JMFVY4
* T5846 ASIN-B000MFJOZU
* T5846 ASIN-B000L9MES6
* T5846 ASIN-B000NZRJFQ
For 100 matte prints, stick to T5845-M, such as:
* T5845-M ASIN-B000IT4O0U
* T5845-M ASIN-B000LDRJS2
* T5845-M ASIN-B000JMHV38
* T5845-M ASIN-B000OCMVLU
The low rating isn't so much a reflection on the product as it is on the product's packaging. The manufacturer, Epson, knows that it has more than one type of Picturemate system on the market and that the cartridges are not compatible across all Picturemate models - yet the packaging does not state anywhere with which models the print pack is or isn't compatible. This oversight could be easily fixed by adding information to the packaging.
