Prinker M Black Temporary Tattoo Printer, Custom Tattoos in Seconds, Water-Resistant and Soap-Washable, Android & iOS Compatible, Fun & Easy, Festivals Parties Events, Black Cosmetic Ink Included

I try this machine, and it surprise me. Print on skin very fast, not hurt. My kids love make small tattoo every weekend now. App a little confuse at first, but after try few time, now ok. Can use own picture, or choose from many design. Color show clear, not fade fast. Need buy ink after some use, but it worth for fun. I happy with this.

When I say I really wanted to love this product. I really mean it.I have multiple real tattoos and though this would be a great way to 'try' some on or supplement the ones I have for those special nights out, vacations, ect. But this thing let me down right from the start!The product is packaged well and the ink cartridges are labeled clearly so you know where each one goes.The Color version comes with 2 cartridges for colors and 1 cartridge for black.You can either have the 2 color cartridges in or 1 black.With the color cartridges in, you CAN still do black. But it's not as vibrant and it leaves a hue of orangish color around the tattoo. No matter how many times I tried to reapply or change the speed at which I glided the device over my skin. I had the same result. And yes I am spritzing the applicator spray on my skin and letting it dry before applying.Printing small, short tattoos that are thinly lined are barely visible.Multiple people tried them on and all were underwhelmed by the result.Don't expect the outlines of say a elephant or dog or yoda to look that impressive.You will only be disappointedPrinting tattoos that are either filled black or with color seem to come out the best. This is especially true with the longer length tattoos. It is about the only place that this device shines.Tattoos of multiple posed birds or dragons running down your arm look the best. Which is why they must use those as the prominent advertisement pictures. If this is where my complaints stopped, then I would have probably kept the prinker. But the issues continue.Moving onto the app. Downloading and installing the app was simple enough on my Samsung Galaxy S22 Pro. That's where the good user experience ended.Connecting the prinker to my phone took over an hour to get it to finally pair. The button to pair blends into the app and I was unaware you had to click the round P symbol floating on the artist selection screen. It almost looks like a watermark and not an interactable button.Once I figured that out, attempting to connect the prinker to my phone would go something like this.You choose your prinker device type, you click search, phone finds prinker, you click on prinker to connect. On the prinker you see the bluetooth icon and the connection attempt. After about 2 minutes the connection fails.I tried restarting the phone, clearing out ALL of my saved bluetooth paired devices from my phone, restarting the prinker, restarting the phone again. Each time, same result.I finally used my Son's old Pixel XL phone, was able to connect to the prinker and then do a firmware update. Afterwards my phone was finally able to connect! What a pain!Now onto the layout of the App.1. It is very difficult to navigate the available tattoos to printer. The default images are broken down by a few artists. The search feature does not appear to bring up results for alot of things. But this SHOULD be ok as you can upload or create your own designs in the app.BUT, this app has the worst drawing UI I have ever seen. It is SOOO bad! It's almost not even worth using. Which is a real damn shame. Especially for a device that's whole purpose is to print tattoos on you! You can also find images online and upload them to use as a tattoo. The process of doing so can either be done by uploading the image directly or dropping it onto the canvas of the drawing app inside the app.The app does a good job at removing say a 'dirty' white background from an png or image online and leaving just the design. No need to make the background transparent first! Awesome.But it also has a really bad habit of taking an image that has some length to it and forcing you to still print it out in the wrong rotation. Lets say you find an image that is 3 times as long as it is wide. There is no way in the app to rotate the image 90 degrees and still keep the aspect ratio intact. In fact the app ONLY allows you to rotate the image 180 degrees in either direction.Even if you rotate the image on a different app by 90 degrees. When you import the image. It will still FORCE it into the wrong orientation. Making the end result tattoo much smaller than it should be.Example, a friend wanted a Celtic knot tattoo. Which is kind of like a long rope like design.The image I found SHOULD have made a tattoo about 1/3 inch wide by about 3 inches long.There was absolutely no way in the app to change the rotation so that it printed out this way.It forced the image so that the entire length of the rope was just the width of the print head.Then there is the subscription service in the app which just is baffling for how bad the app is. I can't believe they would try to charge you ANYTHING for this trash.Please, Please, Please!Don't be like me. Watch some reviews online, see how the users fumble with it.Notice how everyone ONLY uses the included graphics.How no one seems impressed by the short tattoos..These are all valid issues they seem to blow over and I had little doubt every last one of them is a paid promotion.

Tried itfor the first time, and it took a couple of attempts to get the best print, but once I got the hang of it, it worked great! The temporary tattoos come out vibrant and last well throughout the day. Love that I can upload my own designs or choose from thousands in the app. The ink feels safe on the skin, and it washes off easily when needed. Definitely a fun and creative device, worth it!

This arrived with zero charge and wouldn’t take on any charge even after hours. This photo was taken after 2.5 hours of charging. Finally worked after supplying my own cable and fast charger.The tattoos look okay.

This temporary tattoo device is very cool, works perfect, it has a lot of different patterns that I can use. Very easy to set up and use as well.

I'm not the type to leave reviews very often, whether good or bad, but I feel like with this, I would be doing the world a disservice if I didn't leave one. Because truth be told, it's not worth what it costs, or even half of what it costs really. Now, the idea, is fantastic! How they have implemented the idea, is great too. But here is the thing. So I own a small business and we do temporary tattoos for if your going out clubbing with your friends and you wanna decorate your skin with ink for the night. We offer several other methods of temporary tattoos other than Prinker, and thankfully goodness we do because if I relied solely on Prinker, I wouldn't last a single day. My first complaint, and this one is MAJOR. The machine connects to an app to pull the design to be printed over to it. That app has thousands of designs preloaded, and that's cool. But none of them, not even 1, say what size the design is going to print out. I know that the machine is limited to certain dimensions of tattoos that it can print out, but it would be nice to know ahead of time if what I was going to print out was 1 inch by 1 inch, or if it was going to be 1 inch by 4 inch? It doesn't say the size to be printed anywhere in the app, so you just have to guess I suppose? Idk. Then let's talk about another feature. You can upload your own designs and print those! How cool right? So I uploaded a script, it was a name, drawn on paper, and real life size was 5 inches wide, by 2 1/2-3" tall. The design uploaded successfully and it was time to prink! The size it printed out that design was a half inch tall, by 1 inch wide! It was microscopic! Needless to say, uploading designs seems to be a complete waste of time. Yeah it technically " does" it, but no one would ever be able to see what it is! Aside from those 2 things, it's super inconvenient to have to swap out the color cartridges and the black cartridge all the time, depending on what people want. And let's not even begin with the cost! I think it's $180 for color, $120 for black! I've wasted SO SO many of the stated 1000 prints because they come out super small. Then I end up having to give customers free ones because it's obvious no one would be happy with the results, especially when they are paying for it. So in my experience Prinker is a TOTAL waste of $500 bucks. And heaven for bid you ever run out of ink, it's $300 to replace the cartridges! I was planning on ordering a media kit so I could have a PRINKER area in my shop and really promote them hard, but for now that's on hold. Customer Relations go a long way though, so I suppose I'll wait and see if they have a response to this review and go from there. But for now guys, I'm leaning DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY! Money is too hard to come by these days to just be squandered on a toy like this
