LG's newly-launched PD233 Pocket Photo Printer
is compatible with devices running on Android and iOS, and is able to
pair up with these devices wirelessly. LG claims that this portable
printer is one of the smallest and lightest mobile phone printing
devices in the market and is capable of prints measuring 5.1 x 7.6 cm (2
x 3 inches).
Howard Lee, Director-Home Entertainment, LG Electronics India said: “Photographs
are a part of people’s life. It takes us back to the memory lane and
helps us relive important moments. LG’s innovative palm-sized PD233
Pocket Photo Printer is an apt product for our consumers as it will help
them cherish these special memories in high quality prints. The photo
printer just takes few seconds to print or share pictures online once
connected to any mobile device via Bluetooth or NFC (near-field
communication).”
The printer employs inkless printing technology from Zink that
eliminates the need for expensive ink cartridges. According to LG,
Zink’s inkless paper system can preserve images for longer amounts of
time when compared to traditional printing methods. The company also
claims that the technology prevents the smearing of printed pictures.
The
printer also has the ability to print out QR codes, which in turn can
be read by any app capable of scanning barcodes. To use the printer
effectively, users will have to download the LG Pocket Photo app, which
allows editing, decorating and re-colouring, among other things.
LG Pocket Photo Printer is available across India at LG stores for Rs 14,990.
