What you get

The printer, one roll of paper, a USB cable and the manual, in a printed gift box.

One roll does not last long in this house. Add more above.

Before the first print

A grown-up connects it to your home Wi-Fi once, through a free phone app. A few minutes, on the first evening.

After that the app stays shut. Your child presses the button and talks to it.

Paper and refills

57 by 25 mm thermal rolls, 4 metres each, which works out at roughly 100 stickers a roll. No ink, ever. Plain for the scrapbook, sticky for everything else, coloured sticky if half the colouring should already be done.

Questions

Does it print in colour?

No. It prints black outlines and your child does the colouring.

What if they ask for something impossible?

That is the usual case.

IT STARTS WITH ONE IDEA

Happier time, all together

One of them says an idea out loud and it prints. Ten minutes later the whole table is colouring, and nobody has drifted off to a screen.

  • A boy pressing the button and saying an idea out loud in a sunlit kitchen

    1. Say it out loud

    Hold the button and tell it what you want. The stranger the better.

  • A sticker standing up out of the slot on the top of the printer as two small hands reach for it

    2. It draws it

    Out it comes as black line art. Heat, not ink, so only the paper runs out.

  • Two children colouring in printed stickers at a sunlit table

    3. Colour it, stick it

    Whatever pens are on the table. Then it goes on a lunchbox, or a sibling.

Questions people ask

Does it need Wi-Fi?

Yes. A grown-up connects it once through a free phone app, then the app can stay shut.

What is in the box?

The printer, one roll of paper, a USB cable and the manual, in a printed gift box.

How long does a roll last?

Each roll is 4 metres of thermal paper, and a sticker usually comes out 3 to 5 cm long, so one roll works out at roughly 100 stickers.

What age is it for?

All ages. It prints by heat rather than ink, so there is no cartridge to change and nothing to spill.

Can I buy more paper?

Yes. Add five more rolls at the top of this page, plain, sticky or coloured sticky.
