Sprocket Panorama

Canon Selphy QX20 for me. I did a ton of online research beforehand, looked at sample photos, reviews, and specs and bought the HP Sprocket Panorama (bc it allows different sizes). If you’re not too picky about the color, then it’s a “good enough” printer. The Sprocket prints very blue-toned. As such, there is practically NO pink, the yellows and the greens print quite a bit darker, ultimately changing their color. The gradients are also way smoother on the Selphy, but as a photographer, I’m already a huge fan of Canon products and so far, it hasn’t disappointed!! I do wish the paper was less expensive, but I’ve printed mostly collages, stretching my dollar. In truth I think it’s perfectly priced bc of its superior quality over the sprocket/zink photos. Other than a portable printer, I print from my (canon lol) inkjet printer and my absolute favorite is using Washi sticker paper (nice and thin!) and clear adhesive labels (very crisp colors when stuck on white paper!). But that’s when I print my monthly pics/seasonal/garden photo dump. https://preview.redd.it/t374p0f52lof1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ab930d05edf1007c9ae984df41a86f38d7311684 Indoor warm light

I have the sprocket pano and it’s very hit or miss on print quality. I’m thinking of upgrading to the canon selphy soon

I used to use an HP Sprocket with Zink paper. (pros: fast printing, sticker-back paper. cons: streaks sometimes visible, color leans kinda lavender) Then, I saw a friend using the Kodak Mini Retro and I switched over. (pros: colors are clearer, images sharper. con: needs an adhesive to stick into the journal, printing is slower due to the "4 pass" process) I am using the Kodak Retro for travel journaling now because color and sharpness are important to me. I wish it had the sticker back tho! I bring a tape runner with me, but I have had them run out while I was on a trip!

I used to use an HP Sprocket and it was great but then I saw the photo quality of the Kodak Retro and the colors just seemed so much more vibrant! I have made the switch to Kodak Retro! I also priced it out and the Kodak refills are about half the price of the HP Zink paper.

I use a HP sprocket Zink printer. Very happy with it.

I have the HP Sprocket and can pack that very easily. Canon Ivy would be similar. They’re both Zink printers and the quality is perfectly fine for me. I’m printing them for my journal, I’m not upset if the image isn’t exactly the same as my iphone screen. You can see a lot of photos and reviews on their Amazon listings. They are *extremely* portable and I’ve found the Zink refill packs to be pretty affordable.
