Canon Launches the SELPHY CP1500 Compact Photo Printer

Scrapbookers and parents rejoice as Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, announced today the SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer as the newest addition to the SELPHY printer line. Delivering long lasting, durable, high-quality prints in less than a minute, gifting friends and family physical memories and keepsakes which can be shared and enjoyed for decades (when stored in an album) has never been easier.

In a stylish and compact design, the Canon SELPHY CP1500 photo printer is small enough to fit in a pocket or small purse and can be taken on the go - whether using the included AC adapter or the optional battery (sold separately). Its diminutive size doesn't make the CP1500 short on function, though. The printer's standard print size is 4"x 6" postcard - printed in approximately 41 seconds. With the purchase of the optional cassette (sold separately), it can also print card (2.1" x 3.4") and square label (2.1" x 2.1") sizes. Thanks to protective coating, the CP1500 creates long-lasting photos that can withstand wear for more than 100 years when stored in an album. Those looking for a bit more fun can personalize photos with a variety of borders, text, and pattern overlays - such as hearts around your family or paw prints for your furry friends. The creative possibilities are endless - customers can use these photos for crafting, journaling, decorating, or for school projects such as family trees.
Photos In A Pinch
The SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer comes with diverse connectivity, allowing users to connect wirelessly to a compatible smart phone using the Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app. Additionally, users can utilize the SELPHY Photo Layout app to convert a URL into a QR code that can be printed onto a photo - directing to social media pages or to photo locations on a map.

Specific product specs of the SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer include:
  • Dye-Sub technology
  • Accommodates paper sizes: Postcard (4.0" x 6.0") and, with purchase of optional cassette (sold separately), Card Size (2.1" x 3.4") and Square Label (2.1" x 2.1")
  • Enlarged LCD monitor (3.5 inches) compared to the CP1300 printer
  • Pattern overcoats (stars, hearts, flowers, and others)
Pricing
The Canon SELPHY CP1500 compact photo printer is scheduled to be available in October 2022 for an estimated retail price of $139.99 and will be available in two colors, black and white.

Should've spelt it Silphy and painted it red and white, since we're doing dated terms 'n all...
Weird choice for a printer line, tbh. You'd think selfy takers are more into the instant-and-fleeting gratification from publishing on social media.

The Selphy series of thermal dye-sublimation printers has been around for years and years and years. The name is not new whatsoever. These days they're mostly marketed as a qiuck and simple ("instant") way of printing small photos, similar to how some instant cameras use dye sublimation printing.

And how much more is the dye compared to the pricetag of this?

AFAIK they're "ink free", with the paper containing whatever dye/pigment is needed. Of course the paper isn't particularly cheap, but I don't think it's horrendously expensive.
