HP on Thursday launched a rather unique product in India called SProcket that lets users take prints of photographs stored on their mobile phones wirelessly.
"The selfies and pictures taken in our phones are in "digital prisons" and we lose them them often," said Rajkumar Rishi, HP India. "Sprocket caters to the millennials who would want a physical copy of their cherished memories."
HP Sprocket, aimed at attracting millennials, travelers and photography enthusiasists. The printer weighs about 0.17 kgs and can print photos directly from smartphones and tablets. The Sprocket printer connects to any Android or iOS based smartphone via Bluetooth and allows users to edit pictures and add borders and emojis before taking a print. It uses a special photo paper based on ZINK technology to print the pictures instantly without any ink.
The ZINK paper costs Rs 539 for a pack of 20 and Rs 1249 for a pack of 50. A pack of 10 is included in the box. HP claims that the 2X3 inch ZINK paper delivers colorful, smudge-proof, water-resistant and tear-resistant photos without ink or toner cartridges as all the color required for printing is embedded in the HP ZINK
photo paper itself.
The printed photos can also be used as stickers thanks to the HP ZINK photo paper's peel-and-stick backing property. The Sprocket comes with a companion app which allows users to print photos directly from their social media accounts like Facebook and Instagram and add borders and filters. The printer supports a range of file types including jpeg, .gif and .png.
The HP SProcket printer is available via Amazon India and HP's official website for Rs 8,999.
