Do you have a Pogo printer?

**Minstrel** · 25-09-2011, 02:06 PM

I know they were all the rage with CM's a while back but I didn't get one as at the time i was on mat leave and couldn't justify the extra expense.

However, I've been recently thinking of getting one. If you have one, what do you think of it? Do you still use it as often? Are there any negative points i should know? Where did you buy yours from and where do you get the paper/sticker refills from?

Thanks xx

Love my pogo printer...it has made obs a lot quicker and simpler....

I use mine every single day and wouldn't be without it. It is one of the best things I have bought.
The only down side is the battery, it will only print 2-3 pictures off before it needs charging again, so I leave mine plugged in all the time now.

I agree with TF - mine doesn't hold its charge at all, so its fine as long as its plugged in.

I love mine and use it every day that I work, Perents love to see what the kids have been doing throughout the day with me.

**Minstrel** · 25-09-2011, 04:30 PM

Thank you- will be ordering one tomorrow then!

By the way check your phone first tho, doesn't work with iPhone!

**Minstrel** · 25-09-2011, 04:43 PM

I was going to use it with my camera..... will check though!

I have one and I love it - it was a recommended product from a childminder friend of mine. Great little gadget that is so easy to use. Bought mine from Amazon n will get refill paper from there too as it was the cheapest place

Hope that helps

Lots of people on here have got Pogo printers and love them.

You can get them and the paper for them here:

AMAZON POGO PRINTERS

If you order from this link you will earn the forum some valuable commission which we use to fund the running costs and make it even better.

Only fault I can find is that it doesn't hold a charge. It seems to need to be plugged in all the time, otherwise I love it!!!!

**caz3007** · 25-09-2011, 06:16 PM

I agree with everyone else, only negative is the charge but there again its no problem printing with it plugged in. I use mine regularly and we took it on holiday too so DS could do a daily journal with a photo

**Eddisonsmum** · 25-09-2011, 06:31 PM

I bought one from a Childminder who is giving up just last week and I really love it. Just ordered 70 papers from amazon for £8.

Have been sorting out learning journals today and printing pics easy least and they look fab too x

**blue bear** · 25-09-2011, 07:01 PM

My older children print their own photos using the pogo and stick them in their learning journals/ scrap book.
I take photos as we play and print off and into lj at nap time, links made and it's done and dusted so doesn't take up the weekend.
Buy through the forum.

I have both the pogo printer and the pogo camera and printer in one.

I use one or the other all the time. They are quick and can be used for a range of things from labelling boxes, learning journals, daily diaries, reward stickers, evidence for SEF.

I am a big fan

onceinabluemoon · 25-09-2011, 07:26 PM

I love mine and use it weekly.

As has already been stated it does not work with iPhone. It does work with HTC Desire and HTC Smart. (Don't know about other phones but if you name yours somebody may have it)
