carriedesouzai was gifted a sprocket, and i think its super convenient and good sticker quality, however mine has a slight red tint to the print color :// not sure if its just mine, or if anyone else has had that problem. I also have not been able to find a restock of the printer paper!! š id prefer to get it in store so I can make sure im getting the correct one, but every store ive tried where its been āin stockā ive had no luckš any tips? (ik i can just order onlineā¦)
Elephant_chairIāve been using an HP Sprocket for a few years now with no real complaints. Wait, thatās not true. My biggest complaint is that it can be easy to double print a picture and you canāt cancel the second print unless you figure out that itās happening and turn the sprocket off before it starts the second print. But to turn it off and on, you have to hold down a button on the edge. By the time you can hold it down long enough, the chances that it printed the second picture already are pretty high. With the zink replacements being a little pricey, itās extra annoying.
That being said, Iām just more mindful about sending pictures to print and it hasnāt happened in a long time. I do love being able to add pictures to my journal though and theyāve held up over the last few years.
Fantastic_Lie_476I love using my Sprocket, especially if thereās a day when I donāt feel up to writing much! It does bulk up the pages, but Iāve been using larger Sprocket photos all year and Iād say around a third-ish of my dailies have the photos. A photo is worth a thousand words hehe
gia_is_a_penguinI enjoy my sprocket as well! On a side note - do you use any particular settings or filters? I donāt and feel like mine come out with a tint to it (which I donāt mind - it kinda looks polaroidy) but I feel like I see people using it and it comes out perfectly like the picture.
loveshine4everI have the sprocket and the selphy portable printer and they are great for printing on the go.
notsoluckyduck13And this is how I found out the sprocket I got last year will have all my photos fade š
OpportunityJaded9335I have the HP Sprocket and it does the job! Seems to always need to be charged though. If you get a device that prints on zero ink sticker paper, the refill papers tend to be pricy. For the most cost effective, maybe look into a thermal printer?
the_walkyrieI personally have a HP Sprocket and do not like it. I suspect that it is defective (everything turns out so blue) It's been hell trying to deal with their customer service. Plus the Zink photo paper is so expensive in the long run. If you use it moderately often, I would try to get a secondhand regular printer, or invest with one with a tank (which is what I'm currently saving money for)
