Detailed Features

Immediate fun

The SELPHY CP500 is every digital camera user’s dream: an incredibly fast photo printer that delivers high quality, glossy photo lab images. Simply connect your PictBridge or Canon Direct Print compatible camera directly to the SELPHY CP500, select your favourite image and you can start to see your images print immediately - it is really that easy.

Quality prints that last

Superb quality photos with vibrant and natural colours are beautifully recreated with the SELPHY CP500’s capability for 16.7 million colours and smooth tonal gradations. A durable glossy protective coating helps to protect your precious memories from moisture and fading for up to 100 years*. It also gives your photos a traditional look and feel, just like a professional high street photo lab.

Speedy printing

The SELPHY CP500 is incredibly quick. Its newly designed print engine delivers postcard size images (100 x 148mm) at an incredible 63 seconds (using a camera incorporating DIGIC II) - giving you more time to be creative in other ways.

Print options

The SELPHY CP500 offers a choice of print sizes, from the most popular postcard size and wide size** 100 x 200mm prints, to credit card size and fun mini-stickers for the kids. When connected to a Canon camera with the ID Photo Print feature, the SELPHY CP500 can create different sized photo-booth style ID prints for passport and other ID purposes.

Ultimate accessory

Weighing in at just 850g in a super compact size (178 x 120 x 58.6mm), the SELPHY CP500 is the must-have accessory for your digital camera. Its two-tone colouring and metallic finish looks chic in any contemporary home.
