Like a lot of others, my guest & I got carrried away printing pictures & did not TAKE many pictures. I had little goodie bags filled with all of the Canon goodies & then we filled them with all of the prints becuase no one got around to scrapping :)
Everyone loved all of the options to print multiple frames on one picture.
The quality of the pictures was outstanding!
Next weeeknd my son is having his 3rd b-day party -- I will be sending everyone home with their party picture instead of mailing it to them!!!

My guests were all very impressed with the quality of the prints - very! One of my guests didn't have her memory card so we broke out the USB cable and my laptop - it printed wonderfully; however, now I have issues downloading pictures from my DReb to my computer! (not cool, Canon!!) Once we can get that issue cleared up - I'll upload the few photos I took from my party (I'll try to remember!) Give me a few minutes and I WILL upload some of the small digital scrapbook pages I printed!

We had so much fun. I sounded like a Canon expert answering all the questions. I looked like Vanna when I would push the little print button. Thanks Canon and House Party for a great time!

This was a blast! Everyone had fun taking turns printing out the photos. Thank goodness I bought more ink and paper. After seeing how it worked, we took our Selphy and the party on the road and visited the people who couldn't make it to the party. The Selphy was a hit. Thankyou sooo much House Party and Canon.

Everyone had fun printing out the pictures. They thought the speed and the quality was great coming from sucha small printer. Everone had more fun talking and laughing about the pictures then scrapbooking. A freind of mine loves the compact size and idea of printing using a battery pack while traveling. Thanks Canon and Houseparty for the great time and wonderful pictures !!!

We, too, were amazed at the quality of the prints! It was easy to use and fun to play around with. I am thinking of getting one for my grandma so she can print out pictures from her new camera! Thanks Canon and House Party!

We had so much fun at our party. I made each of my guests a scrapbooked photo page. We then dressed the babies up in chef gear and did a photo shoot. It was so neat to be able to print the photos right away, glue them into the page and place it in a frame. My guests loved the photos quality and the compact size of the printer. They all want one!! Thank you Canon and House Party for allowing us to have such a great party.

The party was so much fun! Everyone had a great time using the printer and scrapbooking. Even people who weren't really into scrapbooking had a lot of fun! The printer was amazing! The pictures printed out so fast and clear; my guests couldn't believe it. We tried out the different settings, too. Printed a few sepia and black and white pictures and the quality was great. I had asked everyone to bring a Halloween picture of either themselves or their child dressed up in costume from one of the years past. Then, I purchased 5 x 7 magnetic picture frames and a whole bunch of Halloween scrapbooking supplies. We each made our Halloween frame and had so much fun talking and eating while we scrapbooked. Thanks so much to Canon for allowing my friends and I to get together and have a wonderful time.

The party was lot of fun. We couldn't believe the quality of the photos. I wouldn't have guessed that a Canon printer could print such clear and crisp photos so quickly. I am putting the Canon printer on my Christmas "wish list". Hopefully Santa reads blogs!

We had so much fun. We had 12 guests and we did each couple's photos and printed them up. Everyone was impressed with the quality and speed of the printer. I had to go out and buy more photo paper and ink. I gave out the gift bags and they all liked the baby's 1st year photo books. I think the portability of this printer is outstanding and makes it easy to scrapbook or just print up photos anytime there is a gathering of friends and Family. This will be a big hit over the holidays for souvenir pictures at parties. I even took it to work and printed up photos of my employees for the employee bulletin board. The only thing I was disappointed with is that there is no card slot for an XD photo card. My husband's camera takes those cards so I have to buy an adapter to print his photos. Thank you Canon and House Party for this wonderful opportunity to host my first party!!

We had a great time! We had too much fun talking, eating and taking pictures that we didn't really get to scrapbook. But everyone was excited to take home the photo albums and goodies from Canon. Everyone LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the printer. My 88 year old Grandmother was amazed that the pictures came out so quickly. Others were really impressed with how the printer worked, specifically how it prints the colors separated. It was great! Thanks Canon and HP!

We had a great time at our party! We had over 50 people at the party! Since it was such a large group, we weren't really able to scrap book since it was at my home. What I did was go around and take pictures of all the kids by themselves. I showed the parent and my guests how to print them out! (So many oohs and ahhs!) After printing them out, I had the kids scrap a page with their picture and decorate them with Halloween Themed foam pieces! The kids LOVED it! They thought it was awesome to have a picture of themselves printed out right then and there!!! I had at least one scrap booker that is definitely buying one. Overall, it was a successful party and I want to thank Canon for giving us this opportunity. I LOVE this printer and did a review of it my personal here: http://tinyurl.com/3hlpcb
I was unable to upload the video on houseparty.com because it is large. If anyone knows how I can upload here, please let me know!

Great printer for scrapping or anywhere you want to print out pictures right away!

I like the size of the printer and I could even take it to the hospital when I have the baby to print.

Thanks Canon we had fun. We were able to print pictures and just have fun. Everyone thought the printer was neat, good idea and easy to use. I was given my baby shower so what we did is sort have a friends and family theme. Being a guest and a host of a party and a party we got some pictures but, it was mainly of my friends and family and not of the printing and project making. I loved that everyone that wanted to could go home with pictures from the day and pictures that they wanted to print from the past. We had fun making memories. Everyone liked how easy the printer was to use and that it wasn't like rocket science to use. Plus the fact that it was so compact and made such wonderful pictures. Thanks again Canon for helping to print memories.

Great Houseparty last night! We all had fun checking out the printer and using different options. My guests liked the color options and printing mulitple images on one sheet (ie: wallets). I had a Fall theme and made cute gift bags full of Canon goodies and more. Everyone was excited about them! I didn't take enough pictures, we were too busy printing. We thought of lots of ways that this printer could come in handy. Thanks Canon!

Have to say that this is just the neatest thing going! It simply does everything you need and more. Everyone had such a great time. My husband and son even stayed to check it out. We had so much fun that we decided to now have a once a month Scrap Night. I made up gift bags and included all the goodies from Canon. Thanks Canon for a really fun time!

My guests were amazed at the clarity of the printing. Speedy, small, portable...all of it was good. They loved the idea of the Bluetooth option, too!

Thanks, Canon, for a great party!

Everyone loved the printer! We were scrapping till 11:30PM! We loved the quality of the prints, you don't usually get that from home printers. The black and white option is great, they looked fantastic as well.

My guests were very impressed with the printer. The red-eye reduction and the overall print quality really impressed people. Another feature people were most impressed by was the ability to print greeting cards. I'll post pictures tomorrow!

I had a blast at my first houseparty with cannon. I was so busy answering questions about the cannon and showing all the functions of it that unfortunately i didn't get to take many pictures. But my guest were very interested in the product and a few people said they were going to buy one!! So i made you proud Cannon!! I just wish i had thought to take more pictures this was my first party so i will know where to improve my next one. By the way houseparty.com i am ready for my next assignment i had such a blast!!

OMG! So much fun :). My guests just left at 10:00 p.m.!!! Everybody printed out photos, and I made up gift bags. I bought wooden frames, some wooden suns and palm trees, and wood markers, and everyone had a great time printing out pictures and decorating their frames. Staples had a 100 sheet pack of paper w/ink cartridges for 28.99, so we had plenty of paper and ink. The red eye feature is great. My friends were really impressed with this product!!
