Fun
It’s fun. I bought it to use with family while in The Keys. The pictures are not vibrant, but loved printing the mini photos and stickers.

Love it
I love how this little portable printer is. Easy to link up with your phone. Easy to set up. The picture quality is amazing. If I had to buy again I will. I would recommend this to anyone.

Fun! Buy it!
I am having so much fun using this little printer! No, the photos are not extremely high quality but only a taddarker than maybe they should be – not enough to fall out of love. And they’re stickers! So great for urban sketching, birthdays, any get together for a memento. I purchased it after my son and his wife, who live in another state included a photo they printed with their printer with their gift – I immediately called them to see what printer they had purchased. I also ordered the case for it and a box of 50 (5 pkgs of 10) papers.

So easy, I use it a lot.
This is a great little printer!We primarily use it for this adventure book we have that has little prompts when we got on big or small adventures. To add to it we take pictures and print them out to stick to our journal. Soooo much fun!It gets the kids involved and they love adding stickers or borders to the printer.I downloaded the app and have no problem connecting to it.The sheets are easy to put in and it prints quickly.I haven’t had any problems with it jamming.In my heart of hearts I would love for this to be a printer that prints like Walgreens but it does have that darkness to it in the blacks.For our purposes though it is simply amazing!I put it and our journal in my bag for whenever we go out. Love that you can charge it and the charge lasts for quite awhile. Love that you can charge it with the same charger for my phone.

Sharp, bright images
I returned a mini printer by another brand because of the poor image quality. I’m glad I tried again with the Canon Ivy. Great images and the sticker paper lets me incorporate them into my journal.

Great idea
I love this printer, Its travel size for sure. I use it for my scrapbook. I love how I don’t need service to print pictures and it stays connected to my phone the moment I turn it on. I also have the Kodak one to print different size pictures but I like this one better because of the options and easier to use.

Now that I have used it a few times…
I think it works great!The only issue I have had is when I am setting up what I want to print in the app, the apps proportions are a bit different than how it prints. It seems to zoom in very slightly when it prints.Just leave a little bit of a margin around the sides and this problem is eliminated!

Quality is mid
So I bought this to work on an anniversary scrapbook. I have printed over 140 photos at this point and after a lot of trial and error I’ve figured out that if you want the truest colors, you have to saturate the photos in the canon app. The photo on the right is no edits whatsoever and the one on the left is saturated at like 20. I prefer my pictures to have more color so the saturation works well for me. You will be disappointed with the photo quality if you don’t edit them. ALSO the battery on it dies SUPER FAST. I can only print out on average 30 photos before it dies. At 100% I print 10 and it’s down to 80% after 20 it’s down to like 46% but it’s never consistent with the drainage. Sometimes it dies faster than other times. Overall I like it though, if you’re doing cute low end projects and don’t mind editing photos then this product will do the job.

I love this printer!
The printer is quality!!! I have owned desktop Canon printers for years to print my photos and this little printer does a great job with the small sticker travel photos that I take. True that the colors are not always totally accurate but they are close enough. You could always go in and desaturate or saturate the photo if you want a closer color match but these are not going to be framed and hung on the wall! I love this for taking photos when traveling as mementos of the trip. Love it!

This thing is awesome, except the saturation is off
After using instax pictures in my journal last year, I hated how thick they were for the purpose I was using them. When I learned about this and the fact that it has the option to be sticky paper, it was perfect for my bullet journal lite needs. It’s small and light, I actually have no problem traveling with it in my suitcase and have been happy to do so on a couple of trips. On my last trip to my parents house (they are in their mid-70s) I was able to print out a few iPhone photos from my time there and they were happily surprised to see actual prints and happen so fast. Another way I use these is I stick them onto magnet paper and give them to friends as gifts. Usually selfies of us… something cute to put on the fridge. Also, with the collage feature, I am able to print 2 or 3 images on one sheet which can be nice for variety even though the images are smaller.The only thing I do not like is that in many of my photos, a lot of people look Oompa Loompa orange, so I am always adjusting the settings and hoping for the best. Also, these can be found less expensive on other auction or temulike sites and I wish I knew that because at full price it seems wrong.

Handy & Fun For Papercrafting
As a paper crafter who loves scrapbooking, art journaling, and junk journaling, I often wished I had the ability to print out a small photo or two. I hesitated to print photos, if I only wanted a few, since that would mean wasting a big sheet of photo paper just to get a couple of tiny photos needed for a project.When I saw travel journalers using mini printers on YouTube, I decided I would look into getting one myself. I decided to get one that used Zink paper, since it seemed like the ones with ink cartridges had trouble with paper jams, printing ribbons tearing, or not getting as many prints per cartridge.I settled on the Canon Ivy 2, since it has better print quality & faster charging time than the first Ivy. This printer has been a game changer. I can quickly and easily print 2 x 3 in. prints for my journal entries. Is the print quality as good as my ink jet printer? Well, no…but that’s OK. I think the quality is still pretty good and the ability to print on the spot is so awesome. It costs about 50 cents per print, which is cheaper than the Instax printer, which costs $1/per print. The print quality of the Ivy 2 photos looks better than regular polaroids or instax photos, in my opinion. I also like that I can get Canon paper with little circles that I can put pictures into for printing. The Canon Zink paper seems more readily available than some other types of mini photo paper or cartridges, so that is nice as well.Next year, my husband and I are planning a trip to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, and I look forward to taking this printer along with me. I’ll be able to plop photos into the travel journal I’ll be using on that vacation. I’m excited to be able to journal and take pictures as I go instead of waiting until I get home. I really enjoy this printer and highly recommend it to others.

Play with the contrast a bit but its so easy to use and i love it, it makes a printer noise not really silent but doesnt bother me, its my forst day ill see if i update in the future

Portable and sleek
This printer operates quietly and quickly. I carry it in a briefcase and it goes everywhere. For some reason it won’t sync to my iPhone 15 but it does work with my iPad it’s a little bit of a pain to download all my pictures and print from the iPad. Otherwise the images are sharp and I like the fact that you can buy paper as stickers.

Love this Ivy mini Canon printer!
I found this cute little image on TikTok for my planner and I saved it to print on my new Ivy Canon mini printer. This is going to be so handy as I craft and journal in my planner. I love how it prints out images and it doesn’t smear. So glad I purchased it!

Image could be crisper and less blue
It’s so easy and fun to use. I just wish the quality of printing was crisper and less blue. I do the colour correction in the app, and it still is pretty off. It turns out to be darker and bluer than in the screen. I got better at it, but I still find it frustrating.

Easy to use and cute
This product is nice looking, small and lite. I just received it. Pictures have good color.You can adjust the picture color depending of what you want them for. It was exactly as expected based on the information available. Arrived quickly and well packaged.

Awesome gadget
I love my printer! I use it to print out four little book covers at a time for my reading journal— sometimes the coloring is off (a bit dark or a bit blue-tinged), but you can adjust the brightness and feel it out as you go! It prints super fast and fits in the palm of your hand.

Easy to use and works really well
It was easy to setup and start printing. The software app that is used with the product works well and integrates with my iPhone photo gallery. Was up and printing in a few minutes after charging the device.Abit pricey.

Great little printer
The Ivy is a great little printer! I love that it uses sticker paper! And I can make different sizes by using the collage feature and cutting them apart. Using for my scrapbook/journal. Very easy to use with iPhone.

PERFECT FOR MY BOOK JOURNAL PICTURES
I mainly bought this for making book covers for my book journal, but I’ve been making some stickers for my Stanley cup too. It was easy to set up, but had a little difficulty using it the 2nd time around. I finally told my phone to forget it and then paired it again. Since that time no issues at all when time to print. The only other thing is to make sure you watch your battery life. It drains quickly, so I keep it plugged in when I’m printing – otherwise, great deal for what it can do with NO ink!

Perfect little pics
We got this for our 8 year old because she wanted to print some pics that she takes. It’s so easy that my 8 year old can get it connected and even change the paper all by herself. It prints great little pics, pretty clear considering the size and quality. Good purchase!

Print right from your phone minutes after you take the picture!
I take so many pictures that I now pay for storage, but forget them soon after. I have an android phone (Samsung) and save pictures on my Google acct. I accidentally found this product while searching for film for the old Polaroid instant because I want the physical photo when I take it. I had to play with getting Google pictures to download to the Canon app (hit download-icons for paths will appear-pick your own phone if you want lots to collage, or Canon’s app icon for one). The Canon app doesn’t pick all the photos you take-thats why you download. I made my “fallen leaf” picture by going to filters and picked “vintage” and typed out my heading (my basic laptop photo program won’t even do this) in the color I wanted.I had meant to only keep this handy device in my camper to print out pictures to stick directly onto my travel journal but really only had time to do that once at home. After all, enjoy the moments….but quickly (relatively speaking) print it out (just one or two) to remember the “small” little things.

Not Much Better than First Generation
First of all I want to say that I love this little printer. When I wanted to start scrapbooking I needed a way to get all of the images from my phone onto paper. I looked up many different brands and came to the conclusion that the Canon Ivy was for me. I bought the first generation and was pretty pleased with the print quality it was about 90 to 95% what I wanted it to be. When I found out that there was actually a second generation I immediately went out to buy it thinking that the print quality was going to far exceed the print quality of the first generation. I was wrong it’s barely better. All the images in the video were printed with my Canon Ivy 2 and as you can see for yourself they are high quality. The printer does NOT work well with low light images, they print out very dark. I found this to be the same with the first and second generation of the Ivy. Basically I was hoping that the Ivy 2 would solve everything that the Ivy 1 did not but I was wrong. The charger is more convenient because I can use my phone charger for it but that’s one of the biggest upgrades. Overall would recommend but I don’t know if it’s that much better than the first generation.

Great for scrapbooking on the go!
I bought this to take on a trip to Ireland with me so that I could print out my pictures and add them to a small Journal that I was creating. I haven’t actually left yet but I did run some pictures at home and they came out pretty well. Good enough for the project that I need them for. I was initially planning on taking a instant camera but then I came across this little printer and liked it so much better and it’s far more compact.

Best thing ever invented
I love my mini printer! I use it all the time, I am always printing off pictures that I need for Journaling, tracking and many other things. there are enough features to this little guy to make the adjustments to the photo if needed. I think this is the best purchase of the year so far.

Best Tiny Printer
I love this tiny sticker printer. No issues with Bluetooth connectivity or accessing photos on iPhone or iPad. Predesigned templates are very nice. I use this most for my book journal. I print copies of the book covers to include with my reviews of books. It’s nice to flip through and look at all the pretty book covers.

Great little printer
I love this little printer. Set up couldn’t have been easier/quicker and it’s easy to use. The color is a little darker than what you’re seeing on your phone, but for me it’s ok. My main purpose is to print things for reference. I won’t be taking family photos with it.

LOVE
I am so pleased with my purchase. It was very easy to set up with the app for iPhone. Printing was quick and it was a quick transfer to upload pictures. I have not had any jams. I immediately used it to print 20 pictures. I think the clarity is slightly better with the canon photo paper than other brands. I love that you don’t need ink and they can be stickers.This thing is perfect!

Good small phone printer
Great for having to print memories instantly to share with family / friends. Could have provided better instructions for initial use but with plenty of content online was able to figure it out. Print quality is decent, colors are a little dull. But great value for the price overall!

User friendly mini photo printer
This is a fantastic mini photo printer with true to life colours using the new zinc paper technology. I bought this for my ten year old to print her own photographs and fan photos. She loves the Canon Ivy 2 app which gives you so many pre-set templates, decorations and tiling options. The ability to tile photos helps to economise the use of paper and allows many different image juxtaposition. I did a lot of research prior to the purchase and feel very happy with my choice.

While its great it has its flaws
Pro: its tiny and cuteCon: the battery doesn’t last for very longbut it does what I need it to.
Cocotte1 –
Love it
Though the battery life is a tad on the short side, the few prints I’ve made to date are fine considering that this is a printer that is mainly used to jazz up my journal. The app was easy to install and linking the printer to my phone was a breeze & now I’ve got to figure out how to link it to my tablet as well.My one deception is with the app that has a limited number of decorative borders that are somewhat puerile but it’s overall a nice little printer that is easy to carry around.

Does the job quick, not the best quality
Was able to quickly download and pair the device with the app. Getting it ready to print was super easy and the actual print job was quick. The app has a lot of cute stickers and layouts for you to pick from. Because the picture is so small though, the pictures so come out slightly funky but overall happy with the purchase.

Fun little portable printer
Not so easy to use , but I still like it enough for five stars. I haven’t been a teenager for more than half a century (!), but I can see why it would be popular with the younger age groups.It prints in less than a minute with very good resolution and color. The printer will crop your image somewhat, however, so leave room around the edges of your photo to compensate.The latch to the paper tray is weak. If the lid is opened unexpectedly, you’ll have to go through an initializing routine again, a minor annoyance. So don’t toss the blue card that comes with the printer because it will be needed to re-initialize. As for me, I tape the paper tray shut so an unwanted opening doesn’t happen.The printer paper is SUPPOSED to have a sticky back, but there’s no scribe in the paper to remove the backing and no instructions on how to do it. I can’t get the backing off with my fingernail to make the photo into a sticker.Overall, this printer can be a pain in the neck, but still recommended.

Such a great little device!
This is always a hit at parties and festivals! People really light up when they get gifted printed photos! It’s a great gift to give to others or to just make a little album or your own. The quality of the photos are really good! Way better than my Kodak Instax.

I bought this thinking yeah it’ll be OK just for some little pictures. It is way better than I expected! I took these pictures with my iPhone 15 Max Pro and thought let me print these off and see how it looks. They are amazing. The color, the quality the clarity. I am amazed by this product.

I’m not sure how it will hold up in the long run, but it’s a pretty cool little gadget. My intended use for it was to take pics of all my shoes and stick them to their assigned shoe boxes for quick identification. I may use it to make special personalized bday/xmas cards. So many ideas 💡 🤔.
