There is an ongoing debate as to what printer to use in the Photo Booth. Over the last few years we have heard from many Photo Booth owners who have contributed many ideas.
Often the question of why we don’t use Inkjet printers comes up. Through our testing Inkjet printers have proven to be unpractical for Photo Booth applications. They are slow and very expensive when it comes to paper and ink.

Through extensive research we have determined that the best printer choice for the Photo Booth is the Dye Sublimation printer. Here is why:
- Outstanding quality
- Very affordable cost per print
- Fast printing (some printers could print 4x6 in about 8 sec)

We at Photo Booth Experts after looking into the Dye Sublimation printers have decided to choose Sony printers. Other brands may work just as well and we are only recommending the Sony printers based on our successful experiences with them.
Sony offers a great line of Dye Sublimation printers. We have found the following models to be most suitable for the Photo Booth:
- Sony UP-CX1
- Sony UP-DR150
- Sony UP-DR200
Out of these three our preferred model is the Sony UP-DR200. This printer has been surpassing our expectations. After switching from the Sony UP-DR150 there was a big difference in overall operation.
- Here are a few highlights of the Sony UP-DR200:
- 1 load is 700 prints!
- Easy to load paper and ribbon
- Fantastic performance
- Easy to maintain
- Cut driver! Cuts 4x6 in half
We love our Sony UP-DR200! This article is not about advertising any particular brand but rather sharing our opinion and experience about this product.
