<p>The VuPoint Solutions Photo Cube IP-P20-VP is similar to, but one step down from, the VuPoint Solutions Photo Cube IPWF-P30-VP that I recently reviewed. Like its more expensive sibling, it's a dedicated photo printer designed to print strictly from smartphones, tablets, and PictBridge cameras, and it can print both 4 by 6 photos and panoramas at up to 4 by 16 inches. As with the IPWF-P30-VP, if you want to print without moving files to your computer first, it can be a good fit.</p><p>It's easy to tell the IP-P20-VP from the IPWF-P30-VP from a distance, but only because it's white instead of black. Beyond that, the main differences are the IP-P20-VP's lower price and its lack of Wi-Fi. If you want easy photo printing from your camera or mobile device, either one can do the job. But if you don't need Wi-Fi, the IP-P20-VP's lower price makes it the preferred choice.</p><p>Basics and SetupThe IP-P20-VP is a thermal dye printer, a category that also includes the Canon Selphy CP900. At 5 by 6 by 7 inches (HWD) and only 3.1 pounds, it's reasonably portable. However, it's not as portable as the CP900, which is not only smaller and lighter, but has an optional battery available. The IP-P20-VP needs to plug into a power outlet.</p><p>Much like the print cartridge for the Canon CP900, the IP-P20-VP's cartridge includes both paper and ink, in the form of a dye roll. This welcome convenience lets you load ink and paper in a single step. Unlike the Canon CP900, however, the IP-P20-VP has the advantage of being able to print photos at different sizes: 4 by 6, 4 by 11, or 4 by 16 inches. The printer can manage this trick because the paper is stored in a continuous roll. When it's finished printing, its built-in automatic paper cutter slices the roll to releases the photo as the last step.</p><p><a href="http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2423242,00.asp">Keep reading...</a></p>
