Hello,

Has anyone managed to get their pogo printer to work with their iphone?
I purchased one a few weeks back and have never managed to print even one photo on it!
Seems crazy that the iphone - one of the biggest selling handsets - isn't straight forward to use with my mobile printer :rolleyes:
I've kind of given up but then thought if it is possible here would be the place to ask!

I dont think the I phones are compatible with the pogos...something to do with file transfer on bluetooth?? I googled it and found this

it makes no sense to me...LOL..Im not techy at all ...but it might be useful to someone x

edit...just read it again and it has to be a "jailbroken" I phone(whatever that is??) so guess if you have a new i phone then it wont wok at all :(
theres a you tube video that shows how it works

apple need to allow iphone users to bluetooth to other devices - they will only allow headsets, dont see what the problem is tbh but dont think will change it :angry:

I have an Epson printer and have downloaded an app from the app store which lets me print directly from my iphone. It's called Epson iprint. I am pretty sure they will do other apps for other makes of printer. ;)

No you can't print from your iPhone onto your pogo directly.

I use iCloud so that all the photos I take on my phone are also on my laptop. If your laptop has bluetooth (most will do) you can print direct from your laptop to your pogo printer, using bluetooth.

Thanks, never thought of that! Even tho it's not as easy as printing straight to the pogo at least my paper won't go to waste.
