The good Excellent output quality.
The bad Expensive consumables; unappealing looks.
The bottom line It's the ugliest printer we've ever seen, but it gives birth to prints that shimmer. We're hesitant to endorse something that looks this much like a giant cheese-grater, but the HiTi's photographs are among the best we've seen. You might want to consider a different dye-sublimation printer if you're really stretched for space, but if you can stand staring at this machine it delivers excellent photographs.
