In general, Im pretty happy with this printer. Though upon testing it seems that the printer cant quite replicate fine-line artwork (see photo). The printer seems to print diagonal lines in a manner that makes them look jagged. I would venture to guess that it doesnt have enough lines per inch resolution to be able to make the diagonal lines look smooth. While this is not that big of a deal when printed on thermal paper, this becomes an issue when you print on thermal tattoo transfer paper. Given that the photo transfer paper has its own quirks, the jagged diagonal lines often come out looking like theyre smudged and sometimes incomplete. Since I got this printer for making stencils for tattoos, Im deducting one star from the overall rating because the lower lines per inch count reduce the quality of the printed product. The printer does have an interesting way to render grayscale (see photo). While the printer doesnt render grayscale perfectly, it does give it a texture similar to a pencil sketch. Printing other types of documents look good enough to be able to use in a pinch when you dont have access to inkjet or laser printers. While the thermal printer doesnt require inks, the paper itself does have some drawbacks. The paper will be very sensitive to heat. So if you accidentally place a cup of hot coffee on top, you will see dark spots because the heat activates the part of the paper and turn them black. Also, the prints will not last. In my experience, the printed text/images will fade after a few years which would not be great for archival purposes. I find that the most useful purpose for the thermal printer is using it to create stencils to transfer the artwork onto skin for tattoos. In conclusion, this is a great printer when you need something in a pinch or to have a reliable way to create tattoo stencils. The printer is a much better and more consistent option than using a fax machine to print on photo transfer paper. I really like the portability and the ease of use. Printing noise and speed are not ideal but not dealbreakers. For my usage purpose, I do wish it has a better resolution. All in all, the aspect of the printer is not all that bad so for most normal usage, people would absolutely find this printer resolution to be acceptable. While I have deducted one star from the rating, I would still recommend this printer to those who are looking for one.

So easy to use, and we’re able to make photocopies anywhere, basically. If you use the app on your phone, you’re able to print, scan and copy. The prints are acceptable quality for something so portable and convenient. Very happy with this printer!

This printer is super portable and easy to use. After reading and following the directions, I was able to print from my PC laptop and from my iPhone with ease. On the laptop it was easier to download the printer driver from the USB drive that is included in the box. From the phone, I was able to print text messages, for example, and other documents. The key is once you hit the share button, you have to scroll through and find the app that corresponds to the phone. Click on that app and you will be able to print whatever you are choosing to share. The print quality is excellent. Great new travel mate!

I actually expected this to be bigger, so I was happily surprised to find that its quite small and portable (its 12 in length) and not very heavy at all. In this day and age, where we no longer tend to have printers at home but sometimes need them (and are not at work ;)), this is perfect. It prints very well and you can set the density of its print. You can print from a web page, your photos or documents or you can scan with your phone through the app. The only thing is that it requires thermal paper to print, so you will need that on hand instead of normal printer paper since this doesnt use ink. Overall, its convenient and useful, prints well and I could easily bring this with me anywhere (even with some thermal paper on hand).

I needed a mobile printer for when Im printing invoices while on the go. This is great for that. Text come out clear and its compact size makes it easy to carry with me in a tote.

First, I love how small it is. I travel a lot for work, and sometimes they dont have a printer I can quickly connect to due to network issues or the lack of a guest network for me. This fits easily into my traveling laptop bag with my laptop! The size alone is perfect for me. This can be hooked up to your laptop, or any cell phone to quickly print something. Things to note: You need thermal paper for this. Its not that expensive, but wanted you to know this. Yes, we do tattoos at our shop and yes you could use this to make a stencil, but not something I would do. Not even in a bind. It works with Bluetooth too. Its inkless- doesnt get any better than that when you just need something quick!

Print quality is ehhh. More importantly you need to use special paper

I love this travel printer! It’s easy to use right from your phone via the app. I used it to print a file from my email and it’s very useful for working on-site or in the go. It’s light-weight and prints fast. It also brings a new duster bag for transport and a free flash drive which is cool. It brought a few sample sheets of paper to test. Will have to order some more. Buy it!

While the printer uses thermal paper it really comes in handy especially as a student. I no longer need to make trips to the computer labs to print out papers. It’s portable and can connect to your phone through bluetooth or on your laptop. They provide everything needed like the adapter for the cable, some thermal paper, and even a carrying bag. The printer itself is very good quality and works well. It prints out photos very clearly and I can’t wait to continue using it!

Great portable printer only think u gotta use certain type of paper
