Pointillist - Thermal Printer Camera
Printing Tips:
- A Bluetooth thermal printer that supports ESC/POS commands is required, and must be paired with your mobile device. Paperang or PeriPage are not supported, unfortunately, because they are proprietary to their manufacturer.
- Prints failing to finish or printing random text? Try enabling image slicing and increase the buffer overflow delay in settings.
- White horizontal lines? Disable image slicing and decrease the buffer overflow delay time.
- Garbled or narrow prints? Ensure the pixel width (dots per line) setting matches the printer's specifications. 58mm printers are usually 384 dots, while 80mm printers are 576.
- Most printers include PC software for configuring print speed, density, and other settings via a USB connection. Enable Bluetooth 4 if possible, and set the baud-rate to a higher speed. Consult the printer's manual for more information.

It is unique and probably the best as a image thermal printer app, with different image dithering algorithms. The only issue is that after printing some images, the print goes wrong always starting with hundred of Chinese characters. I've lost meters of paper with this issue. I can't find a solution other than pairing again with the printer, but it always happen it again after one or two prints, I put 5 stars because it is simply speechless perfect in every aspect (not even ads)
Very easy to use and it really works! I bought a mini thermal printer for my child and app which was recommended to use with it didn't work at all (UK market). Therefore I tried to install all thermal printer app available via Play Store and this one is by far the easiest and best app to print little cute pictures. 5 stars would be given if pictures are also in color, not just black & white.
Really great app! I'm using it to print pictures for our students to stick in their journals, and it is just perfect for the job! Quick and easy to use, with lots of customisation options! Thank you for your work developing it!
Great app, that does exactly what I was looking for when purchasing a thermal printer as a poor-mans polaroid camera. Would be great if the rasterization options showed a preview, or could be changed more easily.
Worked really well with the first printer in bought, but not the 2nd but I think that one is just defective. Really helpful developer & a handy app. Love the ease of use in adjusting contrast, light, etc.
it is working great. loving it. i have an issue where suddenly it stopped printing properly and instead i get gibberish characters. im wondering what could be the problem. i tried uninstalling and clear caches. no luck.
hi. can this work with peripage printers; i cant find out how! thanks. the peripage printer is actually a paperang printer. (the same product) but with a different name in the bt id and it comes with a terribly designed app. I'm trying to find a workaround to use the paperang app but i haven't been very lucky. Thanks for your time though! :)
Hi developer how about make an Easy Mode? I think this mod has one page and will work according to the following steps. 1. a page showing front camera image in real time 2. Press the 'Camera' Button to take a photo and print instantly
Really handy app for printing pictures. I would give it 5 stars if some controls weren't buried in the menu.
great thermal printer app. with varierty of dithering selection. hopefully it works with paperang in the future.
Works as described and has plenty options, there's definitely room for improvement but thats not a bad thing.
absolutely amazing. thank you so much for making this app! clean, simple and stable!
Very helpfull app, simple easy to use. Nice job, keep update for new fitur. Godd job fellas
The best app for my bluetooth printer, good thing as i cant use Walkprint.
I don't have the printer I'm an artist but oh boy I love the app it's so good for taking shading references
This app helps me printing receipt from mobile banking which doesn't have dedicated Bluetooth printing option.
Simple yet great and effective app!Easy to use too!
Nice very clear but i had an issue.auto print its langguage.
I hope you can add an option to set the number of copies we want to print.
does work though prints 20% of the photo and 1.5m of Chinese text
Easy to use, but my question is date stamp does not appear on my paper
Thanks please make template for to do list (like peripage printers do)
Awesome way to print cheaply on the go
Way better than the trash to manufacture is trying to get me to use.
Does its job perfectly. Thank you developers!
Easy to use. But quality not good
Great app ... it works on my machine
Works great with my Epson. Must have!
Works, it's fun
Really awesome. Thank you so much for taking the time to develop and publish this app! Being able to configure settings for print delay and image slicing is so useful, and I'm pretty sure this is the only app on the entire play store that allows you to choose from all the major dithering algorithms and bothers to list their names. I haven't come across ANY other apps for printing photos on a thermal printer that can compare to this one. It's free, NO ads, works great. Exactly what I need. 10/10
