Manejable y muy práctica, ideal para transportar y para trabajos que no requieren de una alta calidad, aunque la impresión es bastante óptima, un producto ideal si continúa evolucionando y perfeccionándose técnicamente en todos los aspectos.

L'imprimante a très bien fonctionné, puis un jour ça ne fonctionnait plus, j'ai contacté le SAV très simplement d'abord par mail, puis ils m'ont donné un numéro WhatsApp, ils m'ont donné une manip à faire et toute a fonctionné à nouveau, ils ont été vraiment réactifs (dans la journée), je ne m'y attendais pas.Pour l'imprimante en elle-même, j'imprime avec le rouleau qui est fourni, et pour l'instant je trouve que le noir est plutôt gris donc pas aussi foncé que sur mes documents, j'espère que ça sera mieux avec des feuilles A4 que j'achèterai après. Dans tous les cas je suis contente de cet achat

The quality of the print is not the best of quality, paper loads slow, takes a few minutes to connect to the wifi

My printer stopped connecting to Bluetooth. I tried all the suggested options to reconnect multiple times. I was very unhappy. A Phomemo representative contacted me almost immediately and we have resolved the problem entirely to my satisfaction. It’s the quick contact and resolution to my problem that I’m most impressed with. Great customer service. Thanks.

*Update. I had the paper upside down.🤣 However, the printer just wouldn’t hold a charge so I returned it.I have tried and tried to get it to print. It just acts like it is printing but nothing shows up on the paper. Used with both my iPhone and iPad. No results.I am close to the 30 days, but will give it one more try by deleting app and starting from scratch. If it still doesn’t print I will return it. So bummed.

The text in the picture is blocked off, because I am an OTD student, and have written about my fieldwork experience. However, the print is crisp, its legible, and it was fairly easy to setup the thing. I printed out a picture of my cat as a test, and it does pictures pretty good too.Would definitely recommend for students that are doing fieldwork and travel a lot, this thing is so light and fit into my heap of luggage without a problem.The only qualm I have, is I haven't quite figured out why it's not printing with my laptop, but it works through the app just fine. I used Google Docs and downloaded my documents and it printed it off without a hitch.

I was excited to select this. However, when Phomemo’s Portable Printer arrived, and I started to read the included Quick Start Guide, I started to become disappointed and started to regret selecting this. Later, total buyer’s remorse set in when I could not print from my Mac, without apparently downloading a driver directly from the manufacturer. No thanks. The instructions are minimal, and I was under the impression it was all about me downloading their proprietary app. I am not a fan of proprietary apps such as the app provided by this, and I do not care for their privacy policy. Nevertheless, I went ahead. The printer reminds me so much of a fax machine, except I can print on demand, what I want. The print quality is a mere 300 dpi, so I thought everything had a washed out look. I also think the amount of paper supplied was stingy, a single skinny roll, considering the triple digit price for this, prior to the discounts I see post selection. To me, this is really a printer for those who are on the road and need access, immediately to a printer or for someone who just wants something really small, which I confirm that it is. Small and relatively light. Thermal paper can fade, so long term documents are out of the question. From my understanding, different length rolls, as in smaller, can fit in this, so, if I needed to print out a receipt, this may be an option. Although most point-of-sale devices are usually bundled with a printer.Country of origin?Made in ChinaBattery capacity2,600 mAh, which is capable, however, small. I have portable personal fans that have 10,000 mAh batteries.Cables providedI was impressed with them, Type C to charge and Type C to USB-A for connecting with a computer.Carrying case available?Yes, it’s cute.Carrying case included?No. I think at this price point, it should have been.Size of printer?Less than 13” x 5” x 4”Paper curl?Yes, immediately.Paper availability?Yes, but it’s no bargain.App experience?It works.Weight?About 1½ pounds.Dimensions?About the size of a rolling pin.Bottom-lineThis is a very weak four (4) stars for me. What drove this down is the proprietary app and downloads needed for this.I hope my thoughts added information.

The printer is great. The Bluetooth part was interesting at first but then once connected it’s a lifesaver

Despite seeing only sponsored Vine reviews, I went ahead and decided to give this printer a shot since I knew Amazon would make returning easy if I needed to. The printer doesn't quite give the quality I'd dream of, but it definitely is usable and is a worthy competitive option. Before I get too far into my review, let's review the leading printing technologies as of Dec 2023:--- Inkjet. If you've ever printed in color, this is probably what you've used. It's really the only color game on the market, that's its selling point. This technology works by spraying your paper with finely controlled jets of ink. It works well, but I personally am daunted by needing to have 3 consumables just to keep them running: color ink, black ink, and printer paper. I also don't love that printer companies make it so difficult to purchase these consumables from 3rd parties, and hate that some are even trying to put arbitrary expiry dates on said consumables to keep you trickling your income their way.--- Laser. The black and white backbone. These printers work by depositing toner on your paper and curing it with a laser. As you guessed, these only have 2 consumables: toner and printer paper, but this comes at the cost of limiting you to black and white printing only. However, this tech also works well (good quality) and abusive business policies aren't quite as rampant here.--- Thermal. The backbone of manufacturing and operations teams everywhere. When you get a receipt for your groceries or your hamburger, chances are it was printed on a thermal printer. These work by using heat to cause chemical reactions in special paper (not printer paper) which cause them to darken, creating (again) a black and white image. The detail possible with thermal printers is notably lower than the other two technologies, but it's still serviceable. The big selling point here is that you drop down to only a single consumable: thermal printer paper. That, and because there are no moving parts required to move any nozzles or lasers around, the devices can be quite small (think of the size of a home printer vs a receipt printer at a fast food restaurant).Thermal printing has been historically targeted at businesses and is a growing market for consumers. A few years back, if you wanted an 8.5 x 11" printer, you could really only choose between inkjet and laser. If you wanted color, you wanted an inkjet. If you didn't, you wanted a laser. That decision tree is mostly still the same, except nowadays you have two options if you don't care for color: still laser, but also thermal.So, between the two, how do you know which is right for you? Well, there are three larger items to consider:--- Quality. As I mentioned, the quality of prints you get on this thermal printer are in line with thermal tech, but thermal tech is not as great as laser tech. Prints you'll get from a thermal printer are definitely usable. If you want to print return labels, simple documents, etc, a thermal printer is totally fine. However, if you want very presentable print quality, I would personally go for a laser. I do sometimes need this, but very rarely. In those rare situations, I personally am totally fine going to a print shop and paying a small fee to use their printer.--- Size. Thermal printers can be very small. They just need to be big enough to move paper across a thermal print head. That usually only requires one motor with a few other supporting components. Laser (and ink jet printers) have to be a bit larger. They're slinging other things around and they need some space to do so. They also need space to store toner/ink. I personally live in a fairly small apartment and am super interested in keeping things as small as possible.--- Consumables. Thermal printers only need one consumable: thermal paper. Laser printers need two: printer paper, and toner. If you run out of paper, you can't print. If you run out of toner, you can't print. Storing backup quantities of those things also takes up space (linking back to the size topic). I personally enjoy the simplicity of thermal printing - if I have paper, I can print. If I don't, I can't. Thermal paper is usually in rolls (it is for this printer), and so storing backup quantity is pretty easy.Some other things you might consider are:---Your support of consumer abuse. Many big printer companies are trying lots of "innovative" ideas to keep consumers sending cash their way. If you buy their printers/consumables, you fuel their crusades. Thermal printers are pretty safe in this regard today (big companies haven't figured out how to strangle this yet). Phomemo, for example, (the brand of this printer) seems to be pretty respectable (as of Dec 2023). If you decide a laser/ink printer is more up your alley, I'd recommend the brand Brother (as of Dec 2023). They seem much more reasonable in their respect for consumers than some other ink/laser brands.---Portability. You can use a thermal printer on the road (literally in a moving vehicle if you wanted, but also in a hotel or other location after traveling). You'll struggle to do the same with inkjet or laser.---Maintenance. Printers are pretty solid but simpler systems are usually more reliable. There's only some many things that can break in a thermal printer. There are quite a few more things that can break in an ink/laser printer.If you've read through all this and decided thermal is right for you, then I do recommend this M832 printer. I've only printed a few pages on it but it seems to work well. Getting it setup took ~3min (feed paper, install driver, click print). One feature I like about the M832 vs some others is that it supports printing on both internally-stored rolled paper and external-fed precut sheets. Internal roll is pretty common for most thermal printers (again, think fast food receipt), but it's not always a given once you get to large 8.5x11 sizing. Some may prefer external feed paper, as it means your sheets all have very clean edges by default (to remove a sheet from a roll print, usually you tear it using the built-in tearing blade which leaves a zigzag edge - you could alternatively cut it off with scissors but I personally don't care). I like roll printing as it means everything needed to print is all stored in the printer - much easier to store and use and store again. By the way - this printer also supports smaller sizes (again, think of receipts). This said, I'm not sure if roll diameter is a concern for other sizes: the 8.5x11 rolls seem to be a fairly modest diameter which I think is smaller than some other thermal roll diameters. I plan to test this. I also appreciate that this printer uses USB-C (all other USB style connectors are becoming obsolete, for good reason). Although I bought a grey unit, I also think it's fun that there are colors available. I could see myself buying a colorful unit if the right color mix was available. Lastly, I appreciate that I can use this connected to a PC like a normal printer. The only negative I could think of is that, personally I could have done without the printer having a built-in battery (everyone has USB battery banks these days if mobile printing was needed). I think the cost reduction of pulling the battery and supporting components out could have made the printer able to reach the budget of more consumers, all the while making it a more environmentally friendly device, but product development is complicated so it's hard to say if I'm right or wrong (maybe some consumers don't want to use USB battery pack for that purpose).
