SELPHY CP1000

On photo paper the XP-970 will produce better results. Epson and Canon inks are also waterproof on photo paper (glossy and matte), although HP is not. The Selphy doesn't produce the best prints in my experience (muddy blacks since it lacks a dedicated black), and the resolution isn't the greatest. Its main advantage is the portability.

The selphy I have is a 4x6 printer. Not the best size for an A6. My pocket printer is a Kodak Retro Mini 2 (dye sublimation) and I’ve had it 2.5 years (I love it so much) after much disappointment with several zink printers. Hope this helps.

color lasers generally don't print photos (continuous color tones) well but are more for designed graphics, etc. depending on how much color prints and the size you make, I'd say: get a Brother black and white laser for general printing and a Canon Selphy 4x6 color prints printer for the occasional color print. Or you could even print 4x6's at Walgreens for a few dimes if that works better and not even buy a color printer.

Canon selphy if you want 4x6. Hp Sprocket for smaller pics. I will warn that the Sprocket isn't recommended for longevity, it uses thermal paper that will fade over time. Highly recommend the Canon Selphy though.

I second this! I’ve had a canon selphy for maybe 6 months now and it’s absolutely fantastic. Just something to consider is that the refil paper pack that comes with ink is about $40 aud but in saying that it does come with 108 photo papers to print on
