The bottom line Three hundred dpi, a 67-second print, an 880 mAh battery for thirty prints and five ribbons with fifty sheets, for 100 € — the only printer here that publishes its resolution. It is twelve seconds slower than the KODAK for the same small format, 20 € dearer, and still offers only Bluetooth.
On the listing
Five bullets. Professional thermal sublimation, Liene’s 4PASS technology giving colour-accurate photos at 300 dpi, each printed in 67 seconds and automatically sealed so it is immediately waterproof, scratch-resistant and protected against fading; a stable Bluetooth 5.2 connection to iPhone and Android, with several devices able to stay paired so friends can print in turn without waiting; the official app with an “InstaPic” print mode, CCD-style filters, DIY frames, official motifs, watermarks and timestamps; a compact build at 340 g with an 880 mAh battery giving up to 30 prints, named for festivals, hikes and celebrations away from a socket; and a starter pack of 50 self-adhesive premium photos and 5 ribbons.
Three hundred dots per inch, published
The only resolution on this shelf. It is the figure a lab print is made at, and three other pages here replace it with an adjective.
Sixty-seven seconds, and a battery for thirty prints
Sublimation spends its energy on heat, which is why a battery-powered one is a real claim. Eight hundred and eighty milliamp-hours, up to 30 prints, no socket.
Several phones, paired at once
The queue survives. Nobody opens Bluetooth settings between prints, which at a party is what decides whether the printer gets used.
Fifty sheets and five ribbons
The largest starter bundle here. Sublimation consumables come in pairs, so the box is a real number of prints rather than a stack of paper.
Twelve seconds slower, twenty euros dearer
The 80 € KODAK prints the same 5 by 7.6 cm in 55 seconds. What the extra buys is the dpi figure, the battery and the pairing.

What people ask before they commit
What does 300 dpi mean on a 5 by 7.6 cm print?
About 600 by 900 dots on the paper. It is the standard photographic figure — the same density a lab print is made at — and it is the only resolution published on this shelf. Three other printers here describe their output as high-quality and leave the number out.
How far does 880 mAh go?
Up to 30 prints, per the fourth bullet, which is the figure that matters more than the capacity. Sublimation spends most of its power on heat, so a battery printer is doing something genuinely harder than a battery inkjet — and thirty prints is a day at a festival rather than an afternoon.
Why does multi-device pairing matter?
Because re-pairing kills the queue. The second bullet describes several phones staying connected so people can print in turn without waiting, and at a gathering that is the difference between a printer being used and a printer being passed around with its Bluetooth settings open.
