I was forced to exit and restart the app. There were a few times where I got myself into a menu option with no way of getting out. The app also appears to be quite buggy when used with an iPhone. I tapped to connect and then returned to the app. Deciding I needed to take matters into my own hands, I decided to exit the set up inside the app and go to my Bluetooth menu. I followed the steps in the app, but the printer would simply not connect.
Getting the app talking to the printer was not a straightforward as it would seem. The HP Sprocket pairs via Bluetooth so I recommend you switch your device’s Bluetooth on before running the mobile app so you won’t experience any hiccups in the pairing process. Powering on the HP Sprocket should print out that blue card immediately to ensure it’s ready for use. The printer is easy to open with no tools required and putting the paper is as simple as stacking it in the open space with the blue initializing card facing down. Which will step you through the rest of the setup instructions including loading the paper. When it comes to set up you’ll need to start with the HP Sprocket mobile app.
These sheets use ZINK (Zero Ink) technology which relies on thermal activation of colour already inside the paper, for getting prints which are billed as “vivid, and smudge-free”. It also comes with a free sample pack of 10 2×3-inch photo sticker sheets. The printer is ultralight and isn’t much bigger than your hand making it very portable.Inside the box is the HP Sprocket printer itself and a micro-USB cable. Cuteness aside, the 1×4.6×3.2-inch dimensions and 4-ounce weight makes the Sprocket quite portable too. Sprocket is a really cute name for a printer that looks well… cute! It looks like HP was targeting young ladies as the Sprocket comes in several cute pastel colors.
