Gadget Notes - Polaroid ZIP

Date:  Jan 21, 2016

This is the Polaroid ZIP - Mobile Photo Printer.

It is marketed as “Zero Ink” printer.  There is no printer cartridge, no ink.

And the printing is very fast too.

I have bought this for some time but have not got the chance to use it yet.  And this morning, Kay Kay needs to submit a photo of himself.  And my printer is out of ink.  So, I unbox the printer.  And press the power button and hold it for 4-5 seconds, it automatically pop up on my bluetooth settings.  My mobile phone is connected to the printer in less than a minute.

Use another minute to download the App.

Launch the App.  You can do quite a lot of things here.

Click on Quick Print.  You can choose to print from camera or print from gallery.

Choose a photo from the gallery.

Some Quick Tips.

Select the photos and press print.  As easy as that.

Less than 30 seconds, the photo is being uploaded to the Polaroid ZIP and print instantly.

The ZINK smart sheet paper comes in a pack of 10.  So, simply put in the paper when it runs out by sliding the top cover.

Very simple design, easy to use and comes very handy.  You can even put it into your handbag.

So if you have young kids around, you might want to keep one of these.  So, you still use your iPhone or Android phone as camera, and you print out these camera using the Polaroid ZIP.
