TINY SMARTPHONE PRINTER

It seems that smartphones are involved in every aspect of our lives as of late. It really is so convenient to be able to carry an organizer, phone, e-mail, and high-tech camera in your pocket. Camera technology is now a crucial feature on smart phones. It makes it easy to document important moments with a picture. Now while most of these photographs end up being uploaded into a computer or a social media site, most probably don’t end up being printed due to convenience. It would take an extra step to process printing photographs on a phone.

Well, leave it to recent technology to make printing instantly from a smartphone available. A tiny zero-ink palm-sized printer by the name of ZINK (www.zink.com) is quite the little gadget. A perfect little printer for people on the go and is extremely handy in its mini size.

INK LESS?

A printer without the use of ink cartridges, ribbons or toners…Zink uses technology that involves heat activating unique color-forming molecules embedded in the layers of the specialized paper. This paper is an advanced composite material composed of multiple layers of color-forming chemistry with color crystals. The layers are coated as a thin stack onto a base layer with a polymer coating protecting them from moisture. Amazingly, all layers combined are less thick than the thickness of human hair. The “special” paper looks like plain white paper.

FEATURES

• Prints by using Bluetooth to access photos on iPhone/iPad and Android.
• Prints a 2 in by 3 in color photo in less than a minute.
• An app that works with the device will allow you to center, caption and add certain filters/borders to pics before printing.
