Review on 📸 Phomemo M02S DarkGreen Pocket Printer: Upgraded HD Bluetooth Thermal Photo Printer for Photo Printing, Plan Journal, Organization, Art Creation & Gifting by Brant Watson

Compared to another brand's 203dpi printer, this particular Phomemo model produces better prints as it has a 300dpi resolution. Phomemo is great for printing line art and graphics. This is useful for turning photos and other images into thumbnails using the scan function. Besides a decent user interface, the app also comes with a lot of great graphical elements. Unfortunately, there are too many things I don't like about it. The device is misaligned and the printouts are not centered. You also cannot move the paper or cartridge to center it. You will need to scale and move the image to the left in the program if centering is important to you. Most images print fine, but the device I received does not print gridlines. The paper often jerks and the picture sticks together. The option to create a grid without lines doesn't work either. Even if you select light lines or no lines, the darkest line available will still be printed. The Brightness/Contrast option does not work properly and you cannot return to the starting point. The contrast is too dark for all printed photos. There are many filters for changing photo images, but they also have a dark contrast. Even with a fine (bright) setting, the details are simply darkened. There are graphics in different categories of the app that you cannot access in other sections. For example, the label workshop has many graphics and banners that you cannot use in the notes section. The application does not allow you to create a 50mm label, only 15 or 25mm. Therefore, you are prohibited from using these banners and graphics in 50mm format. They seem to update the app about every two months, but in its current state I cannot recommend this printer.
