Thank you for this very straight forward review! Concise yet thorough, and clear. 👏

how to choose the size of the printed photo? is it arbitrary or can you print fragments sequentially so that the final printout is of a larger scale? on the film you can see the sizes when you click on the screen .. when you try to change the size with your fingers it does not work. It seems like there are only two options...

Thanks For the video. I needed reassurance about buying this.

I legit just bought this EXACT (well A4 version) one 4 minutes ago. Then, I went on yt, just searched thermal printers for printing documents, and this video is the first I saw. Nice! Can't wait to try mine when it arrives next week.

Which do you recommend Peripage or phomemo ??

Thank you for your review I was looking for this in order to buy one

Does it have good printing quality?

can this print regular 4x6 inch shipping label as well? Using continuous shipping label roll or stack, that is, not feeding one sheet at a time.

The app works with my Pixel 7 Pro but my Windows version 11 the driver doesn't work after I install it. Shows the driver as being unavailable. Other than that this printer works just fine, the quality is pretty good. It's hard to believe that by now they don't have an updated driver for Windows 11.

does this printer print thermal lebers

Can you show with font size 4, 6, 8, 10, 12?

No, a thermal printer can only print on thermal paper.

How can I get one?

How do I get the app?????

Couple of things worthy of note, on Amazon they only seem to offer A4 version in the UK. I wanted this for Tattoo stencils and the A4 version is pretty pointless as most of the high end stencil papers are 8.5 wide US letter so won’t feed into the smaller feed entry of the printer. Also the App is pretty useless for resizing so you need to use a pc or Mac tethered to the USB cable so you can sent resized images to it directly . It also is a bit hit and miss with thermal stencil paper as I do have a few A4 cheap thermal stencil sheets and it will drag them around the feed roller unless you help them through by applying some pull tension on the paper as it feeds through . This isn’t really a reliable replaceable for a brother pocket jet if your thinking it might be.

@@SOLATEK369 see if you can find the US letter version . It’s either that or one of the cheaper generic therma fax type printers that every man and his dog produces . The ones that are quite wide , just found one on Amazon uk called lifebasis so try and search for that as I think they are all more or less the same but different names .That design is widely used by some shops although I’ve not used one myself so no idea if it can print on US letter size paper I’m afraid . It is quite cheap though .you’ll have to do some research . The you tuber art-something did a good video on a similar printer .

Yes they would. There are other models that use a ribbon (P831 is one). This lasts a lot longer but you have to replace the ribbon. The advantage is that you can use normal printing paper for these, however, replacing the ribbon actually works out more expensive per print than thermal paper. If portability and size is your main requirement and you aren't using too often, it may be a good option.

I just bought one but it doesn't connect to my iPhone 8 Plus

Thermal printers have always been fine. There's no improvements and never needed to be. It's a cool part of early comouter history and refrigerator sized "micro computers" just as dot matrix printers were. These are fun to do program and code dumps with to hardcopy the data on your atari system.

I cannot see the print of the instructions as I am blind as a bat even with my glasses sometimes. I need to know how long it takes to charge it? I thank you in advance.

They are about $100 on Temu and like $130 on Amazon. I have one. It might be cheaper to get a $50-100 hp printer with instant ink, though, fyi, as the paper is about 20 cents per print one-sided only. It is worth it for portability and for students, imo, though.

Let's not dwell on your anti-British sentiment. Rather, let's focus on the content and move forward with a positive attitude. Any more questions about 'fermal' paper?

"This is no rocket science", but I can't believe that neither the instruction nor the video start with "charge instructions". How long does it take to charge it? I have been doing it for 2 hours and it still blinks red. How would I know if it is defective or it should take 8 hours to charge this tiny bar? I can't believe that I have to learn it the hard way... I just can't believe that the instruction manual, in three language, no small deal, has no info about the time it takes to charge. And this whole video is sort of useless because the system itself is self-obvious. Except for charging part. I even called the customer service in the US - but one answers. And no instruction online answers this simplest question. Next step will be asking Chat GPT))). I can go to Amazon where I bought it, of course, and ask them but I don't want to leave a bad review before trying the machine.

The quality is fairly poor, to be honest. I have one.
