Any reviews on the Olympus P300 or P330 photo printers?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Imaging Resource Discussion : One Thread

I was considering buying an Olympus P300 photo printer since there is a $100 dollar rebate from Olympus if you purchase a digital camera within 30 days of the printer purchase. I'd like to print out digital photos but I know that most regular inkjet printers are really not up to the task even with glossy paper. Anyone out there can give any input to the quality of photos printed by the Olympus P300? Is it worth the extra money or not? Any input will be great. Thanks. By the way, I'm getting the 400Z camera.

We have the P300 and love it. We use it with an Olympus D320 and the photos are unbelievable. The ONLY disadvantage to this printer is the maximum print size. It only prints photos up to 4.5x3.5" prints. I'd prefer 6x4" but once they are in an album, it's not that big a deal. You literally won't be able to distinguish these from drugstore film prints.
