Zink Polaroid Mint Pocket Printer W/ Zink Zero Ink Technology & Built-In Bluetooth for Android & iOS Devices - White

The photos are by no means perfect, they're low quality and the colors are way off, but this printer is SO affordable, portable, and convenient, I do not regret my purchase at all. It's tiny, slightly thicker than a phone with a case, and shorter than a phone. Pocket sized if you're adventurous, but I mostly keep mine in my backpack. I bought some batteries at work on my shift, and we charge them on a shared charger, so we've always thrown stickers on them to label them. That day I printed my own, slapped them on, and tossed the batteries on the charger! I make labels on this featuring my own art, I make stickers of my friends, I make little NFC chips with photo labels, all kinds of stuff! It's a tiny Bluetooth sticker printer, doesn't get much better than that.

Absolutely love this printer. I was torn between this printer and the fujifilm (mostly for the traditional “Polaroid” photos) but ended up choosing this one based on pricing of the printer and film. The pictures come out great, and I’ve had no real issues with the app that goes along with it thus far. I had some trouble printing out the first photo, but after taking out the film and making sure it was aligned right (not jammed) I had no problems. Pictures come out great, and you have the option to print with or without a white boarder (Gives a Polaroid look). Overall really easy to use and setup, plus it does come with 5 film right away which is awesome.

We recently went on a driving vacation and I keep a journal of where we stay etc. Sometimes I have put stickers in my journal from national parks and I got to thinking how fun it would be to be able to put my own pics in my book. I came to Amazon searching for a printer that would print on sticky paper and found a bunch of choices and this one in white had the lowest price and decent reviews so I decided to go for it.It was super easy to set up. It connected to my bluetooth. You download the polaroid mint app. I downloaded it on my ipad but plan to also put it on my iphone. When you first start it tries to get you to take a photo and print that but rather than wasting a photo just back out of that and go to the main page and you can print from your camera roll. I had to update the firmware but that only took less than a minute. Just follow the instructions. Then turn it on again and print.Loading the paper was confusing because it said to put the blue paper in with a logo face down on the bottom right. The diagram in the paper was different than the one with the printer....plus I was not sure what they considered the bottom as when you open the trap door to load the paper what would seem like the bottom appears to be the top of the other side. Anyway I just guessed that they meant the bottom of the trap door opening so that's what I did and it worked.You can edit your photo size in the app. If you want a border you can leave one but I did not see an actual cropping feature. I just stretched mine using the touch screen to full size. I am going to play with the app a bit more to see what you can do, but I did see a bunch of filters similar to instagram. I just used my original picture as that is what I was going for.Once you print it spits out the blue paper and I guess you get a new blue sheet with each new picture pack although I am not completely sure so I will hang on to it.It takes less than a minute to print your photo and then you can either peel the backing off and stick it somewhere or leave the backing on. The print is very thin even with the backing on.The picture quality is going to be medium at best. This is like a polaroid photo from the cameras that used to do that so do not expect professional photos. These are just fun little prints you can make to add to xmas cards or whatever you want. The quality is about what I expected maybe a little better than what I remember from polaroid prints of years ago. But they are so nice and thin with no thick covering.I would have given it 5 stars except I was expecting it to come with more paper. In the questions the manufacturer said it came with 10 sheets and mine only came with 5. I sort of feel like for the price that they could spring for a few more pieces of paper. 10 or 20 would be good to get you started. I'm probably being extra picky about that but it bugged me.Overall this is a great little printer that hardly takes up any room and I can carry it with me on vacation. I will probably get some sort of case for it to keep it padded and safe in my backpack where I carry my camera, but I expect to use this a lot. I'm thinking it might be great for all kinds of things.Thanks for reading my reviewBecky Brooks

The pictures are stickers so that’s wonderful. They print out quick, the color is great considering there’s no ink to buy, and the picture quality is nearly as good as the photos quality itself. I love mine and have had it for 6 years now!

I'm using this for a bullet journal/scrapbook, and it does what I want it to do! The picture quality isn't the best, but they're 2x3 prints, so it's really more about the convenience of the sticky back and size, rather than the details, in my opinion. I have the Instax printer also (because I'm a basic chick), and the picture quality is very similar. I've attached a side by side of some pictures and my journal as reference. I love both printers! I use the Instax one for all the people pictures and the Polaroid one for all the background and detail pictures. Polaroid photo papers are MUCH cheaper than Instax film, but I love using the combo of the two. Buy all of them!UPDATE FIVE MONTHS LATER: The Mint app is very finicky, but when it DOES work, it's pretty good. One time, it took my 20 minutes to print one picture, so that was frustrating. Otherwise, don't try to edit the picture within the app. Lighten it in your phone and then send it to the app.

I thought my wife would enjoy having this printer. She takes a lot of photos with her phone and always wishes she had an easy way to have a 'real' copy. Our daughter has a Zink camera and my wife always thinks that the little sticker prints that our daughter gets from that camera are fun even though they are pretty low quality prints. My hope was that because her phone takes such great photos, that the print quality would ultimately be better than what we get from the instant camera...but I was wrong. Even though this printer getting really great quality photos from the phone...the images that print out tend to be grainy and the colors kind of off. We've learned that we can kind of overcompensate the saturation within the polaroid mint app and get the colors to look better when printed...but not by much.Overall I guess this is as good as you're going to get from a Zink image. It's still fun and I like that you can peel the backing off for a sticker...but I wish they could get better image quality.
