If you’re on the go and looking for a fun way to print photos, then this is it. After charging the unit for about an hour it was ready to use. It can connect to your smart device via Bluetooth. Download the app and you’re able to print pocket-sized photos. Printing a photo is a quick and easy process. Open the app, select the photo you want to print and press the printer button. In a matter of 15 seconds, it’s printed.
The quality isn’t as nice as a larger printer, but it’s not shabby for something that fits in the palm of my hand.
The app also allows you to make edits and add fun little things to the photo. It was pretty cool to print a photo I had just posted to my social media.
I brought it to a friend’s house and it was a hit. Everyone loved trying it out and wanted to use it. People loved the idea of being able to snap a photo and quickly print it for a keepsake.
My wife is excited about using this because she thinks it’ll be a great resource for adding photos to the “baby book” for our child. I admit, it’ll be pretty cool.
Takeaway:
Because of the size, I wonder how many photos will print before I have to purchase ink. Also, having to purchase the photo paper is a drag, but not a deal breaker. I like the idea of being able to print things quickly from my phone.
Try not to mind the qality of the photo, it was tough trying to focus on both the phone and printed image.

Starting with the positives: This little printer is incredibly easy to set up and fun to use. Within fifteen minutes of opening the box, I had printed through the 10-pack of Zink paper included with the printer, testing out everything from printing selfies to greenery and even some graphic art, which brings me to one of the most enjoyable things about the HP Zinc paper: It’s self-adhesive. Printing out little 2x3 stickers with your pictures or little sayings is a lot of fun! While quite small for a photo print at 2” by 3”, the pictures do print completely edge-to-edge so there’s no wasted space. 2x3 is small for a print, but seems oddly appropriate for a sticker.
The built-in battery lasts through about one pack of ten prints before needing a recharge and the prints come out quickly with a satisfying little hum. It reminds me of taking Polaroid pictures back in the “old” days.
On the down side, the colors in the prints can be (but aren’t always) somewhat washed out - particularly skin tones, though at least the resolution is fine enough that the prints don’t end up looking grainy. I think the Zink paper still has a little trouble with vibrant reds, which is why I dropped my review down to 4 stars.
So, if you’re looking for a fun little battery powered portable printer that can print out 2x3 stickers for you and your friends (or kids), this is it. Because the “ink” is in the paper, the refill packs of paper can be somewhat pricey but Best Buy was running a sale on refills so I stocked up on a few packs while the price was more attractive.

Easy to use and set up. Great prints! Portable and was already to use as soon as we took it out the box.

Very fun, I love using it to surprise people with stickers of their animal. You can’t tell but the paper it comes with is actually sticker paper, so it’s very fun.

Purchased as a birthday gift for my mother who wanted some form of tangible photos. She loves it and my niece does too. Overall good quality prints and portable.

I love being able to print my photos so quickly! The only issue I have had is the coloring of the photos. They sometimes look blurred or cartoonish because the color doesn’t match the actual picture when printed. But over all it does what I need it to do!
