While the Sprocket Studio isn’t quite as portable as the other printers in the line, it’s still small enough to pack up and take with you. Other than that the overall design is very minimalist, with a single power button, a customizable LED indicator, a power input, and not a whole lot else. The main body of the unit I tested was a matte gray color, with the top of the puck section featuring an attractive speckled look.

Instead of a rectangular puck form factor like the other Sprocket printers, it houses the printing mechanism in the familiar puck and also includes a rectangular bed that holds the printer paper. The selling point of the Sprocket line has always been the ability to slip a battery-poweredprinter in your pocket, and the Sprocket Studio is just a little too big for that. Over the course of about a week with this device, I tested things like color reproduction, speed, the durability of prints, and the ability of the Sprocket Studio to reproduce a wide variety of still and action shots.ĭesign: Too big for your pocket, but portable enough I recently enlisted the help of friends and family, with the promise of some free 5x7 prints, to put an HP Sprocket Studio to the test both around the office and some on-demand printing while out and about. This printer is significantly larger than the other devices in the Sprocket line, and it definitely isn’t pocket-sized, but the detachable bed and included battery make it fairly easy to pack up and take with you. The HP Sprocket Studio is a portable photo printer that’s capable of delivering professional-quality prints both at home and on the go.
