We then tested the printer by shooting photos on our phone, then finding them in the app's gallery to print. It wasn't a huge deal breaker as the iPhone X camera is a fantastic feature.

That seemed to defeat the purpose of the device - which would be to take photos on the fly and shoot. We found every time we tried to launch the camera feature - and shoot through the app as opposed to the iPhone's camera - it would crash the app.Įvery time we snapped an image, the app started to spin and then close. The app itself was not as easy to manage as the Kodak Photo Printer app designed for the Kodak Photo Printer Dock printer, even though they looked the same. The Kodak Printer Mini app downloaded quickly from the App Store, and we were able to pair our phone to the printer quickly.

We tested the Kodak Photo Mini Printer with an iPhone X. There's also a sticker pack of 20 you can buy.Īfter updating the firmware, we needed to pair the smartphone to the printer. We charged up the device, made sure the initial print cartridge was installed (which gets you started with eight print.) Extra print cartridges come in packs of 20, 30 and 50 and contain both the paper and the ink. Inside you find the printer itself, a changer and an instruction manual. The Kodak Photo Mini Printer retails for $129.99 and is pretty small, about 3 x 6 x 1 inches - and would have to be as you're told you can bring it along with you wherever you go. When Kodak offered us a chance to spend some time with its Kodak Photo Mini Printer, we agreed. The colors may not be as brilliant, but there's something lovely about a printed photo. Anyone who has ever professionally shot and printed knows that what we see on a digital screen is not the same as what shows up on photo paper.

Why would we? We walk around with what is essentially, a portable digital frame in our pocket with access to every photo we've ever captured (a boon and a bane.) But there is still something to be said about a physical photograph. Few of us print actual photographs anymore.
