Epson PictureMate Snap PM240 Compact Photo Printer Review
by Tom Warhol

Navigation


Likes

  • Very portable design.
  • Easy cartridge replacement.
  • The unit is not glistening white, like so many compact printers.
  • Quality prints.

Dislikes

  • Slow printing times for large file sizes.
  • Poor menu aesthetic design.

Conclusion
The Epson PictureMate Snap (aka the PM240) is a compact, durable ink jet printer that produces excellent quality prints at slightly cheaper cost per print (as reported by the manufacturer) than many of its competitors. It’s sturdy and unobtrusive, with good seals and protection for the control panel, media slots, and paper trays. While our time tests did show that the printer is very slow at printing very large file sizes, it is unlikely that most consumers will be printing files that large on a compact printer. If you expect to, then definitely look elsewhere, such as some of the dye sub printers. Barring that, the PM240 is a very good quality printer at a very reasonable price, though we wish the optional battery was included with the printer.
