Tell me about these pogo printers?

**crazyhazy** · 29-08-2010, 06:19 PM

I keep hearing about them and am wondering if I "need" one! So what's the difference between using one and just printing on a normal printer? What size are the photos and are they expensive to replace ink/paper etc?

Thanks x

They are fab! The pics are quite small, but perfect for obs

and have sticky backs so very convenient.

I get my paper from play.com at about £10 for 90 sheets

Its made life so much easier. I wouldn't be without mine

If you decide to buy one (and they are very popular) you can get them from the forum shop
http://astore.amazon.co.uk/childmind...ail/B001APNVTQ and earn a few pennies to help with the running costs of this forum.

they sound great. i really want one.

how do u get the ink and how much is it?

**HappyH** · 29-08-2010, 09:31 PM

I love mine, before I was downloading the pics, copying & pasting, printing it off, cutting it out, glueing it.. blah blah. Now I plug my camera into the pogo, print it off, the size is perfect and it's sticky back! It saves so much time and hassle. And for the first time I can print straight from my mobile. How did I ever manage before???

that's because of supply and demand - all us childminders buying pogos had pushed up the price of the papers

That is what is so good about these printers, they don't use ink so you never need to buy ink cartridges, don't ask me how it works, I think it's to do with the paper.
