Canon Selphy CP1500 Wireless Compact Photo Printer (Black)

The Canon Selphy CP1500 Wireless Compact Photo Printer is the perfect portable photo printer for printing at home and on the go. Easily print with AirPrint, the Selphy Layout app, your camera memory card, or USB so your memories are ready to share wherever you are. Choose the right size for the right photo from 4x6 inch, 2.1x2.1 inch square to mini label stickers, all made to be water and marker-resistant. Take the Selphy CP1500 almost anywhere with the optional battery pack, add fun effects with the updated (v3.0) Selphy Photo Layout app, and just have a good time printing photos with your friends.

Take It with You

Thanks to the optional battery NB-CP2LH that can help produce up to 54 prints per charge, you can take your Selphy CP1500 with you and print on the go almost anywhere.

Wi-Fi, USB, and More

There are so many ways to print images on the Selphy CP1500, it’s easy to pick the one that works best for you, whether that is Wi-Fi, AirPrint, USB (computer and USB flash drive), your camera memory card, or the Selphy Photo Layout smartphone app.

Instantly Dry and Marker Ready

Thanks to the dye-sublimation printing process, the prints exit the printer completely dry and are ready to handle, and with the final overcoat layer, they are even water-resistant. That means they are also marker-ready in case you want to write a personal message on your photo. Prints produced with this technology can last up to 100 years.

Use the Free App for Even More Options

The Selphy Layout is the free companion app for the Selphy printers that let you print, edit, and add fun effects right from your Smartphone. Now updated to V3.0, the Selphy Layout app lets you organize how you want to print your images. You can create collages, choose which images you want to use for mini-stickers, add pattern overcoat effects, and even add QR codes to your prints to direct someone to a specific webpage. 

New Finishing Options

Most dye-sub printers can only produce glossy prints (because the final overcoat layer is glossy), but Canon has learned how to change the texture of the final print so that you can choose from glossy, semi-gloss, and satin finishes. Additionally, you can Print patterns into the overcoat layer to give your images a subtle pop of texture.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from selphy cp1500 this is the best photo printer canon ever made I recommend it

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Clunky iphone interface for editing High quality color prints. However, the iphone program interface is confusing. It is very hard to crop and edit the photos before printing. Borders are cut off frequently. Plus, there are two programs available to use from canon on the app store and they do not mesh well. If canon fixed the editing interface, this would be a five star product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from LOVE IT! Great product! My husband asked what I wanted for Christmas and I told him updated pictures of our family in all our frames. He had no idea which pictures I’d want so he came up with the BRILLIANT idea to buy me this picture printer. It took about 10 minutes to get set up with the app and it’s amazingly easy to use! I’ve only had it for 2 days and have already filled all my frames!! I like to change them out fairly frequently so I’ll definitely be putting this thing to use quite a bit. Once it’s set up, you pick your pictures, plug it in and print. It’s that easy!! I can’t leave 10 stars so 5 will have to do but seriously! I LOVE IT!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Finally - WOW. This is my first time using any product like this. It was challenging for a while, but persistence pays off (if you can't figure it out the first time, try, try again). We had to watch a set -up video and it was very helpful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from THIS ROCKS Worked perfectly with the app, easy to use photos look great, ink and paper are simple to change. This thing is awesome I never write reviews but had to share the news since i was considering other options. Get it !!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from If you know how to use it, it's great! This has been working great for me so far. I'm using a Samsung S22 Ultra and WiFi printing. If you're not technologically inclined you're probably not going to do well with a photo printer. You will have to approve the Wi-Fi connection in order to send a photo to the printer from the app otherwise your phone will deny the connection since there's technically no Internet connection when you connect to the printer. Once the Wi-Fi connection "connects" fully the photo will send and print in less than a minute. There could be a better workflow to the app but overall I'm very happy with this purchase and that my pictures are no longer just sitting on my phone waiting to be lost forever.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Hardware great. Software... not. The printer itself is lovely, it prints nice and quick, and the resulting pictures look very nice. However, printing to it from a PC is an exercise in frustration - because the print drive doesn't actually seem to match the size of the 4x6 paper (or perhaps the paper isn't exactly 4x6?), you'll need to manually adjust the print margins to avoid either printing way over the edges and thus unintentionally cropping your shot, or leaving big, uneven white borders around the image. This was a pretty expensive trial and error process - it took me a good 20-25 prints to find a print configuration that I was mostly happy with - and that involved cheating and adding a black border to sorta hide the uneven margins. If the software side of this was as nice as the hardware, it'd be an easy 5-star.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy to use I bought this on an impulse while shopping for a new lense. I printed out some photos from a recent vacation and they look amazing. It really brings back memories of the time before when you could actually hold the pictures. The Ink/Paper isn't too expensive considering the number of prints you get for 36.00.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from dead within 20 prints total piece of junk. and when it breaks, you have to pay to ship it to them. no local service. AND they did not honor the one year warranty. Landfill.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So Far So Good! I bought this to see if I would like the pictures that I take for events, and yes I do. I will take to the next event and maybe can sell.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Disappointed Not worth the long term expense of special paper & ink. I was aware of the special ink but not being able to print simple 4x6 prints is crazy. The 4x6 photo paper doesn't fit in the tray

Rated 5 out of 5 by from selphy cp 1500 Best photo printer it works awesome it works with ur phone best printer canon has ever made worth the money
Date published: 2023-06-16
Rated 2 out of 5 by from No idea what paper to buy I got this printer in December, and tried to find paper for the newer model cp1500. I can’t find any technical specs for what kind of paper to buy, but it seems like it can use the paper and ink made for the cp1300, but there is also a newer version of paper and ink. What is the correct part number so I can take advantage of the matte finish that the cp1500 offers? The printer sits in the closet until I can get some paper and ink!

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Pictures look great….if you ever get them to print Wanted a 4x6 photo printer so I was excited about this. Unfortunately it takes FOREVER to start printing a picture. 2-5 minutes after you send your photo from your phone. Also, the printer has to be restarted after printing a photo or two because it will show as ‘offline’. At this point it is too much of a hassle to ever use this printer.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Seems to only work with app seems to only work with the app which is a pain…have been unable to get it to work directly on my home network. Too many repetitive screens to get the printing started

Rated 1 out of 5 by from The most inconvenient printer You need to buy separate tray AND INK if you want to use it with different size of paper. Doesnt come with supplies. You need to buy everything elsewhere.
