HP has recently announced a portable photo printer, which is called Sprocket. It enables you to print photos from your regular phone. It is a device that prints you a hard copy of your memorable pictures that you can save forever with yourself.

HP Sprocket is almost the size of a regular pocket and extremely portable; which is why it is called ‘pocket sized’. This small size printer can easily fit in your pockets or in your backpacks if you are traveling somewhere. HP Sprocket Printer is available in two different color settings; one with a combination of white and rose gold, and the other one with a combination of black and silver.

HP Sprocket prints sticky back photos that measures to be 2x3 inches. The printed pictures have a backing that can be peeled off to reveal a sticky back, after which the photo can be affixed to your walls, fridge, closets, doors or memory frames for decoration purposes or for simply saving your memories.

The HP Sprocket printers are compatible with both iOS and Android devices. One fun feature of HP Sprocket is that since it is iOS and Android supportive, picture editing applications on the phone can be utilized to jazz up the picture game. Before printing, you can add borders, adjust brightness, and add filters, texts or frames. Various other printers do not support customization of the pictures as they are not compatible with iOS or Android, and consequently the editing applications.

HP Sprocket uses Zink/HP photo paper for printing purpose. This is good news for the people interested as Zink paper does not require ink to print; it has crystals on the top of the paper that are heated up to varying degrees to form different colors. Also, the printer is rechargeable and can be easily charged through a micro USB.

The HP Sprocket printer is pretty user-friendly. It is small, light in weight and does require extra wires. It can be connected to your phone easily via Bluetooth.

HP has offered a unique device for all the people who love to save their pictures. The HP Sprocket printer will let you save your precious moments in hard copy to remain with you forever and come in handy for the travelers who love to go on tours and take pictures.
