This works very well as long as you have what you want printed is on your device.

1-star still implies there is something good about the item and there isnt. I have 3 phones and 3 PCs and installed drivers on all of them and then started testing. From an iphone it printed a photo badly. From a PC it printed a text document as well as my laser printer which was surprising. Very crisp and excellent. From then on, it variously printed half a page and then stopped, or printed entire sheets in solid black, or wouldnt feed paper or printed two lines and then the rest just a black page. The machine began making awful noises. This was maddening. I returned it and quickly got a replacement. On all 6 devices the new one refused to connect to bluetooth and after 1 hour of trying, I gave up. In between, I contacted the company for help but they offered no help, eventually writing to say to contact the seller but there is no seller to contact via Amazon. Since this was the best rated thermal printer I think it wont pay me to try another brand or to try another replacement. I live in my van now and cannot take along my giant laser printer so this was an excellent idea except that they do not work. I hope one day the company tests and fixes the products they sell. Something else important to know. Each time you print, you must first open the driver, go to the Image configuration tab and select how you want the printer to handle the job. The choices are completely non-sensical and there are no instructions how to set up Settings. Its trial and error. The build quality of the device is OK, its small and light and super easy to store. If it just worked I would certainly raise the stars. I regret I didnt take photos for you of the bad printing, I gave all in the return box for the seller to see. I never heard from them.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Thermal Portable Printer

The instructions to set up the printer driver and other matters dealing with the printer comes in a little pamphlet and even though I downloaded the printer driver I could not set my computer to print on this printer. Also, since the pamphlet is so little, I misplaced it and then I was at a loss. Luckily my computer teacher, Catherine, helped me install the printer driver and I was able to print. After my teacher set it up, I found the pamphlet.I din't know how to use the Bluetooth connectivity to set up the printer driver. This is where my teacher came in handy. I still don't know how she did it but she is still my teacher and I can ask her to go over the set up with me on how to do it.The value for the money is great. The color print quality is good; it is quite dark. I am glad I do not have to buy cartridges for ink. How long will this last? What is the life span of a thermal small printer? How often do they have to be maintained and what kind of maintenance do they require? I didn't know a printer could print without ink cartridges. I am amazed.

This is a THERMAL printer and it works good overall utilizing the app approach the challenge is the cost of 8x11 thermal paper which isn’t cost effective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Printer!

The media could not be loaded. I found it hardest to connect by my laptop because of all the things you had to go into after you downloaded the stuff for it on the laptop, took forever trying to figure it out so I just had success connecting it to my phone by Bluetooth through the app you download for it on your phone and printing happened immediately, and I love all the controls on the app for the printer how you can make your ink and paper then the ink quality really good just choose the darkness and lightness of your prints carefully to turn out good.The only horrible thing about this is the SOUND, I was covering my ears when it prints... it's a really shrieky annoying screech like noise only last few seconds the whole time it's printing.I love you can sit this anywhere and print anything, it's all black and white ink but it's still nice.The directions pretty easy far as how to connect and turn the printer on and love the added thermal paper it already comes with for a start because I used all those for trat printing but it was all folded and I didn't like that really.I was testing this for papers I'm making to go with hand written gospel tracts I made.I'm printing this from Google Docs/Drive, pictures of the Lord Jesus to show His shroud for His resurrection and that it's visual proof He paid for our sin and you can see your Saviour's face.
