Phomemo M832 Portable Printer, 300dpi Thermal Printer A4 Compatible with Phone & Laptop, Wireless Inkless Printers for Home, Photo, Study, Business Trip, Bluetooth Monochrome Printer, Black

Setup was quick, printing is fast, and the output is consistently clear with no smudging. I like that it doesn’t need ink — just load the roll and you’re good to go, which saves money and hassle. It’s compact enough to keep on a desk or carry around, and it connects reliably without constant troubleshooting

This is a great printer. I like how there are different options for colours, I chose the black and I am glad I did. I really like the simple design of this printer, it is super easy to opens, close and change the paper inside. I also like how it is a long roll of paper instead of individual sheets, so if I don't print off something that takes up a whole A4 sheet, there isn't a lot of blank space. I also like how quick it prints. It isnt as quick as a huge plug in printer, but that is to be expected. The power it has for such a small device is amazing! I have no complaints on how quick it prints at all! The printer comes with two chargers, and USB-C cable and a USB-A adaptor cable. It also came with a grey dust bag, ensuring that when I carry the printer around in my bag it doesn't get scuffed or dirty which is really appreciated! The instruction manual it came with was super simple to read and follow too. It is also quite a sturdy printer, whilst not being too heavy. It can easily be carried in my backpack for on-the-go use. Definitely feels like an expensive printer, it is great quality. Connecting the app to the printer took mere seconds too. The app is super simple to use and has different print settings that you can play around with to see what you prefer. As this printer uses thermal paper, it only prints in black and white, but this isn't an issue for me. Overall comments: Cons - -Doesn't print colour (this isn't an issue for me) -Slightly loud when printing (this also doesn't bother me as the convenience of the printer makes up for it) Pros - - Quick at printing. - Easy to connect via Bluetooth to the app. - Super compact printer with a dust bag, making it easy to transport and use on the go. - Uses a roll of paper inside the printer, so no need to carry paper alongside it. - Clear instruction manual which is simple to follow. - Don't need to buy ink This printer, for the cost, definitely deserves 5 stars due to its simplicity to use and it's lightweight and compact nature.

My review of the Phomemo M832 thermal printer is in the context of having paid £57 for it. Overall I am cautiously happy with the M832 printer. I was drawn to this printer by its Linux driver support, downloadable from Phomemo's website. Phomemo get an A+ for that, since most other manufacturers of A4-sized thermal printers seem not to offer Linux drivers. Most of the printing I have done so far has been via Linux (specifically Linux Mint on 6.8.0 kernel) but I have also tried the Android app. I also wanted an A4 printer that can also do receipt size paper rolls and the M832 can do widths of 53mm, 80mm and 110mm as well as A4 and US letter. I don't print often so the idea of a small thermal printer that I could put away in a draw when not in use appealed to me over relatively larger ink printers taking up some desk space. The printer is portable too and is battery powered. It was a disappointing and rocky start with this printer. On my first use after opening the printer I connected via USB to my Linux PC and the outcome was very faint in the test A4 page I printed and in fact it only got halfway through before dying. So low battery, OK, but according to the online manual (which has a table of LED light combinations and their meaning vs the boxed manual which has no such information) the LEDs showing on the device did not indicate a low battery as there was no red LED showing. Also the Android app connected to the printer via bluetooth reported 100% charge which made no sense. The behaviour of the printer not recognising the low battery was confusing and disconcerting. In any case I left it to charge for several hours and on a new test print the quality was good and it got through the whole page successfully. I then tried a test of the Android app and this printed fine. However I then tried another print from the PC it would freeze halfway through and it kept freezing on some repeat attempts with me trying to reset the printer via the reset button. At this point I was getting ready to call it faulty. I left it a day with all the PC and printer powered off. Since then I have hooked it up via USB and done many more prints from the Linux PC without issue. I also tried printing a photo from the Android app and it came out better than I expected but printing photos is not really the best use case for any thermal printer. I don't really know what was the issue before as to why it froze and so I have unanswered questions about the device's reliability but since those initial problems on the first day it has worked without further fault on I'd say 15+ prints so far over several days. I have tried different sizes of paper all printing successfully and of good quality output and good definition. I'm going to keep the printer and hope that I don't see a freeze up again. So long as it keeps working as it now is I am happy with the value and price I paid. -------------- Some further notes: >>>>> There is a thin layer of plastic film over the LED and ON/OFF button area of the device that is very difficult to notice and remove as there is no tab, but removing this film improved the sensitivity of the ON/OFF button which is a capacitive touch button. Before removing it the button didn't register every touch and initially I didn't see why; this contributed to my feeling the device could have been faulty. >>>>> Regarding paper sizes: I was hoping for the paper sizes to be a common standard so there will be many manufacturers of thermal paper available to keep the paper prices down. A4 and US letter are standard for the large paper sizes. Of the smaller sizes 80mm is a common standard, 110mm is somewhat common. 53mm seems to be less common where most of the market is at 57mm. However I did get some 57mm adhesive backed paper and have printed successfully with that by treating it like 53mm paper on the PC. When using paper rolls there are left and right plastic tabs in the printer to insert into slots depending on the paper width, presumably to help keep the roll centred in place; to fit in the 57mm roll I put the left tab in its designated 53mm slot and aligned the paper roll against that, I left the right tab out the way in another non-53mm slot doing nothing. The quality of the Phomemo paper I've bought is good and the 80mm rolls were somewhat better quality than another generic 80mm paper I tried, so depending on the price it may be worth paying extra. Also the paper rolls are liable to curl up after printing, although flat sheets of thermal paper are available and compatible with the printer. Still the rolls are convenient to keep in the printer and use less space. The paper cutting edge is effective and much better than another printer I tried, I consistently get a good tear. The printer is monochrome which is another limitation of thermal vs ink printers. If you know where to look I found A4 rolls and flat sheets at the price of around 5 pence to 8 pence per A4 page which is reasonable. >>>>> Regarding the Android app: no account registration is required, just install and use which is welcome. The app has features for printing documents from the phone, printing an arrangement of photographs or scanning a picture to improve contrast for thermal printing. Also there are some other bits I haven't tried. You can install it and see the features without connecting to a printer if you are so interested. I've checked since the initial low battery issue I experienced and it only ever reports 100% battery in the Android app that I have seen so I'm not sure how reliable that is. >>>>> Regarding printing from PC: I have used the free and open-source LibreOffice Draw (supports Linux, Windows and Mac) to create some labels/prints in the 80mm and 53mm sizes and this has worked well to print out portrait and landscape; I've done this by setting the page properties to the right dimensions for the printer e.g. 80mm*106mm and 53mm*70mm. I have also printed out PDF A4 documents. The printer shows up to use in Linux same as any other printer so it should work with any software that can print.
