Overview

The Canon SELPHY CP1300 is a compact dye-sublimation photo printer purpose-built for 4x6 output — the standard print size for snapshots, event photos, and booth printing. Its 300 x 300 dpi resolution with dye-sub technology doesn't tell the full story: dye-sub's continuous-tone process produces perceptibly smoother gradients than an equivalent-DPI inkjet, because color is diffused into the paper rather than deposited as discrete dots. The RP-108 ink set lays down cyan, magenta, yellow, and a clear protective laminate in four passes, yielding prints that are immediately dry, water resistant, and rated for 100-year archival life under album storage conditions. At 47 seconds per print, it won't race a commercial lab, but the output quality-to-size ratio is genuinely competitive.

The CP1300 is designed for users who print frequently away from a desk — photographers running photo booths, families printing vacation memories on the road, or event coordinators who need instant physical keepsakes. Connectivity covers the practical spectrum: Canon PRINT app over Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi Direct for smartphones, USB for direct computer connection, and SD/SDHC card slots for camera-direct printing without any device. The 3.2-inch tilting LCD supports basic on-printer editing — cropping, red-eye correction, filters — which reduces dependence on a phone for quick jobs. The optional battery pack (sold separately) extends the portable use case further, though for stationary studio or event use the included AC adapter is sufficient. The 18-sheet paper tray is the main workflow constraint for high-volume sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dye sublimation. Unlike inkjet, dye-sub layers cyan, magenta, yellow, and a protective overcoat in continuous passes, producing smooth tonal gradients and a sealed, water-resistant surface. The result is a photo that looks and feels like a traditional lab print rather than an inkjet output.
Canon rates it at approximately 47 seconds for the first print. That includes the full four-pass dye-sub process. For batch printing — parties, events — throughput is consistent since the process doesn't slow between prints.
The RP-108 Color Ink/Paper Set provides 108 sheets of postcard-size (4x6) glossy photo paper along with the matched ink cartridge. The ink and paper are a matched system — you cannot use third-party paper without risking color accuracy or mechanical jams.
Wi-Fi Direct is supported, so you can connect a smartphone directly to the printer without a router using Canon's PRINT app (iOS/Android). Standard Wi-Fi network printing is also available. USB and memory card (SD/SDHC) slots provide wired alternatives if wireless isn't convenient.
Canon rates CP1300 prints at up to 100 years when stored in an album away from light, and the protective overcoat layer makes them water resistant — safe for handling, scrapbooking, or display without lamination.
