Katie: Hi!
Today we're going to show you the unboxing and setup of the HP Sprocket Photo Printer.
This is a new, mobile printer that allows you to print photos on the go.
Erik: First, we're going to open up the box.
On top is the HP Sprocket Photo Printer.
Remove the printer from the bag.
Katie: Next is the setup card.
We'll follow the steps on this card to set up the printer.
Erik: This is the HP Zink Sticky Backed Photo Paper.
For best quality prints, HP recommends that you always use the HP Zink Sticky Backed Photo Paper.
Katie: This is the USB cable used to charge the printer.
Katie: We'll plug this end into the printer, and the other end will be used to plug into
a computer or USB adapter.
Erik: The light on the printer is red during charging, and turns green
when the printer is fully charged.
It takes about 60 to 90 minutes to fully charge the printer.
Katie: On your mobile device, open a Web browser and go to hpsprocket.com.
Katie: Touch Download to download the Sprocket mobile app.
Erik: Open the packet of HP Zink Sticky Backed Photo Paper.
The packet contains ten sheets of photo paper with a removable sticky back and a calibration card.
The calibration card is unique to each packet of paper.
It calibrates the printer for best print quality, and cleans the paper path.
Do not load more than the ten sheets of paper and the calibration card into the printer at one time.
Katie: To load the paper, slide the top cover of the printer until it clicks,
then remove the cover.
Load the paper sticky side down with the calibration card on the bottom, barcode side down.
And then replace the top cover.
Katie: Hold the Power button down for three seconds to power on the printer.
You'll see the light on the top, indicating power, come on here.
Katie: Connect the printer to your mobile device via Bluetooth.
From the iPhone home screen, navigate to Settings, then Bluetooth, then HP Sprocket.
It will ask you to confirm you want to pair the two, so touch Allow.
The Sprocket app will open after the two pair.
The steps are similar on an Android device.
Katie: You can print photos through connected social media sources
like Instagram, Facebook, and Flicker from within the Sprocket app.
Katie: You can also print from your camera roll, or take new photos.
Katie: At the photo preview, you can edit your photo before you select Print.
Add a filter, add a sticker, and crop and resize your photo as desired.
Katie: Once you are satisfied with your edits, touch Print.
Erik: From the sidebar, you can check your printer's status
to make sure that it is still connected to your phone.
A green dot and a Ready status indicates that your printer is successfully paired with your phone.
Erik: From the How to & Help menu, you can go directly to your User Guide for the printer.
Katie: On your first print with a new pack of paper, the calibration card prints first,
calibrating the printer.
The printed photo follows.
Katie: Once printed, you can remove the back of the photo paper and stick it to any surface.
