Total junk

App is so bad, I might return the printer.

Connection

Won't connect to Bluetooth. Finally does then when you turn it on again it won't connect!

HP Sprocket

Love my little photo maker!

Unable to change status light

I am unable to change the status indicator light to the custom color as explained in the user manual. There is no “color” section to edit and instructions are incorrect.

Perfect

I love this thing

Fun and very practical

Love it! Using it for all kinds of projects!

Not great

I use my printer to print two picture collages and it is incredibly difficult to rotate and edit them in the app.

Fun & Productive!

Great for adding some flair to my Morning Pages and for decorating unsuspecting surfaces 🤔😎

Intentionally inaccessible

This app will not work if you try to limit photo access to selected images rather than allowing access to all images. Did I just waste my money on this printer and 100 refills? Likely. Do not recommend if you’re trying to limit permissions for the companies doing shady stuff for your data…

Most difficult app I’ve ever delt with

Horrible

Brilliant

I love it

Works great right off the bat

So easy to install and to use the app. Pleasantly surprised by this product. Good job HP

Faulty

The app keeps prompting that the lid needs to be closed when it already is, and refuses to print. Picture quality isn’t great either.

Needs more instructions

Hard to clear the pictures already printed. You have to delete the picture to get it removed from the gallery. Not always easy to use.

Good but not for a long time

I’ve had my sprocket for years. It used to work great and have no issues. However, the last few years the app won’t “upgrade” and the images 9/10 times come with blue lines on it. I’ve reset it, tried new paper packages (all sprocket owned and not a different brand) and other stuff to make it work.

Essentially - only buy this machine and this app for a short limited time.

Not able to connect

I was able to print 1 picture and now it will not connect no matter what I try. Remove app, reinstall, forget device reinstall device, shutdown phone restart. Nothing working so far.

Will not connect to home wifi

Multiple attempts to get this thing to work. It won’t stay on direct connect nor connected to regular xfinity wifi. They don’t tell you these things when you buy it. I will keep trying but will return if it won’t stay connected.

In-app prints work, share sheet broken

I love the hardware and the technology behind ZINK but the application here leaves a lot to be desired. Selecting and printing photos from your phone’s Library is relatively easy, but it would be nice to use the search features or album features from the native photos app or for example, Google Photos. Unfortunately, there’s no way to print from those other apps because the Share sheet extension is broken and seems to have been broken for quite a while based on reports on the Internet.
