Pricker+ 6PASS Wireless Portable Photo Sticker Printer

Was really fun to figure this out but into an awesome printer . I was able to print out labels for my storage closet . Comes with cartridges and the app is really easy to use !

The Pricker Plus is a very small sticker printer that is fun and easy to use. It requires an app to function. I initially had a little trouble getting it to work but eventually figured out my simple mistake. I found this gadget to be fun and convenient, although it’s a little noisy. The images look pretty good but don’t expect high-resolution photos. The overall build of the Pricker seems high quality and it should be dependable.

Setting up the printer was easy, although using it required a simple step I missed. The included info sheet simply shows how to install the cartridge and power it on and off. I charged the printer using the included cable with my own charger. Then I installed the app and paired the printer to my Samsung S21 Ultra phone. While turned off, I Inserted the label cartridge. When I turned the printer back on, it made an awful sound like a giant spring being sprung. I got used to it because this happens every time I turn it on with a cartridge inside. Now for creating my stickers!

The app template lets me choose their images or I can choose from my own gallery or camera. I made a photo sticker with the large cartridge then I created a set of sample labels to test the printer. I was disappointed that I did not have a choice of font styles for my own text if adding to most of the templates. I was able to find a font type for the label template. However, it wasn’t as clear as it should have been. Only the top font option was in written English. The others in the list are in Korean. However, if you click one of them you’ll see your text appear in different font style and not in Korean. I hope that makes sense. I’ve attached photos to help. Otherwise, designing my stickers was easy. Now to print.

I clicked the print button on the app. A white window popped up that had 3 icons: a spinning oval, BlueTooth symbol, and an X to exit the screen. Since my phone was paired with the printer, I also saw the name of the printer on the white popup. Nothing happened. I clicked the oval and it would spin. I clicked the BlueTooth icon and nothing happened. I eventually discovered that I needed to click the printer name that appeared. Seems simple enough in hindsight, but there was nothing to indicate this needed to be done. Screenshot attached.

When I clicked the printer name, the Pricker began to do its thing. The sticker sheet made a few noisy passes back and forth until it finished. The images were just fine. Not photo quality, but just fine. The colors were fairly close to true, as compared in the image I am attaching.

Replacement cartridges are a little pricey so don’t buy this for your kids. Also, it seems to be a lot of plastic to discard since each cartridge only holds 10 small sheets. The full range of cartridges is available here on Amazon, including printable nail stickers. Save your boxes to store your cartridges when not in use since they are delicate.

Before ordering this printer, I checked out the brand and discovered it was the product of DSGlobal Co., Ltd., a Korean company well-known for similar products. Some of their products are exclusive to LG, a trusted brand. DSGlobal does not appear to offer product support on their website There is a tiny info icon on the app. When I clicked it, it simply brought up an animated graphic showing how to insert the cartridge. All text is in Korean. If you need support, do so through the Amazon messaging system. I contacted them to inquire about my problem and they responded quickly.

Overall I do like this little printer. It’s versatile and serves a purpose my big printer can’t fulfill. It’s portable and would be a lot of fun to bring to family gatherings, too. I would recommend it to my own friends and family. My only issue is the lack of font styles, but otherwise, it’s great.

 I really wanted to like this portable photo printer, but ultimately it was a big let down.

For $160 (current list price), you get the photo printer, 2 cartridges (10pk photo paper, 10 pk labels), and a charging cable. The whole presentation and packaging was nice and cute – very giftable.

When I first got the printer, I let it fully charge before messing with it. You will also need to install the Pricker+ app. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to set up and start using the printer. The first photo I printed came out fuzzy and with faint lines running up and down the image – it looked okay from a distance, but closer up, I can’t say it was a nice clean print out. There aren’t many settings you can adjust in the app, so I tried printing a few of their stock images and colors and text within the app. Some colors were a good match, and some were a bit off. I do a lot of graphics printing, so I know the colors on a bright, blacklit, vivid phone screen won’t look exactly the same as a print out… but some colors were just flat out wrong. And again, the simple images were a bit fuzzy.

Each photo takes about 2.5 to 3 min to print – it goes through 6 passes in and out of the machine.
As of this review, refills for this printer (with 10 prints) is, in my opinion, pretty steep at about $17 plus tax.

I then swapped out the photo cartridge and installed the label cartridge. Sadly, I spent some time creating a lot of different images, fonts (cute options!), and colors to test out how labels print…. but I kept getting an error that the paper couldn’t be ejected. I closed out the app and restarted the printer. I again got the same error. I then referred to the user manual for troubleshooting, tried tapping the cartridge (as recommended) and still could not get it to work. After trying a few more times, I gave up.

I removed the label cartridge and reinserted the photo cartridge to see if it would still work, and it did. But the photo quality wasn’t any better.

All in all, IF the label cartridge wasn’t faulty, I would still feel that $160 + the refill price is a steep price for the quality of the prints and price/quantity of sheets per cartridge you get. If you want to print fun photos or labels or nail stickers with ease for a party or something and you’re okay with colors looking close enough and not crisp and clear, then maybe this is the printer for you. It’s kind of along the lines of the instant Polaroids – but not quite as good as Polaroids.

For quick, decent photo prints that give a better quality (up to 4×6 but as small as 2×2 passport photos – or smaller), I have been liking the Canon SELPHY CP1300. It isn’t ultra portable like the Pricker+ (no internal battery, a bit larger footprint), but the quality of the prints (as good as it can get with ribbons anyway) and speed and settings are much better. That said, set up was a pain. Once I got it going though, it’s been smooth sailing.

I don’t know how to list all the problems. First of all when it does work the pictures are adorable. I was able to print one before my printer the cartridge jammed. Giving me an error. The manual on the app is in Chinese. And the error message that popped up on the app said to call customer service with a phone number in China! It is being returned. Don’t waste your money or time.
