Pros

  • Speedy text printing
  • Responsive control panel buttons
  • Quality photo prints
  • Great mobile device support
  • Tablet- and smartphone-ready

Cons

  • Does not support flash drives
  • Expensive rechargeable battery
  • Lacks copy/scan functions
  • No memory card slots

The Canon Pixma TR150 is a solid portable printer which can easily fit in a backpack or a large purse. 

We think it’s a very convenient choice since you only need to download the Canon PRINT app on your smartphone or tablet and you are good to go – no laptops or desktops necessary!

Capable of printing a single page of text in only 10.3 seconds, this portable printer can certainly perform. If you always find yourself hurrying to meet deadlines, then this reliable portable printer is for you.

This portable printer also provides crisp text and vibrant photo prints. This is due to its hybrid ink system which has dye-based colors and a dedicated pigment black ink. 

If you are encountering issues with this portable printer, simply reach out to Google Assistant support or Amazon Alexa.

That said, it currently comes in just one color (black), so it might not be for those who love bright colors.

As for its cost, it might be pricier than the other options in this list, but we think this is justified with the addition of more features and capabilities. For example, you can connect and print directly without the use of a router.

However, it cannot copy or scan, and it does not support flash drives. It also does not have slots for memory cards.

Finally, the optional rechargeable battery is also a bit pricey. For instance, a Canon LK-72 Battery Pack for a Canon TR150 Printer is priced at Php 6,995.00.

For those who would like a portable printer that can print quickly and can also deliver quality photos, then we think the Canon Pixma TR150 would be the perfect printing companion.

Pros

  • Attractive price point
  • Convenient Bluetooth setup
  • Available in youthful and vibrant colors

Cons

  • Small image format
  • Non-removable rechargeable battery
  • Charging port is not USB-C

The Fujifilm Instax Mini Link is such a sight for sore eyes. It comes in three gorgeous hues: Dark Denim, Ash White, and Dusky Pink.

This beauty is affordable, which we love, and it has a convenient Bluetooth setup. No need to look for a WiFi connection in order to print pics.

It also weighs only 307g which is the same as that of a large grapefruit, so you can carry it basically anywhere, hassle-free. It can even fit inside your backpocket.

This portable printer’s exterior has cool ridges all around to provide you with a better grip. They are definitely less slippery compared to the older Instax models.

For us, its most special feature is that it uses instant film and not low-quality, heat-sensitive thermal materials. This provides the user with a higher quality photo print compared to its competitors.

And if you’ve ever dreamed of printing attractive selfies or group shots using various filters and cool frames, directly from your phone, this is the printer for you.

Its Fun Mode features will allow you to edit pics and print them instantly, for you to keep or hand out as party favors.

This cute printer is compatible with smartphones and tablets (Android and iOS), however, it does not work with laptops or desktops. 

It also has a small image format of only 2.4 in. × 1.8 in which some might find too small. Also, its battery is non-removable, so you cannot swap it out with another battery if it is running on low.

Lastly, it only has a USB port and not a USB-C. A USB-C connection charges up to 20 times faster than a basic USB, and a USB- C has higher data transfer rates as well.

Overall, the Fujifilm Instax Mini Link would be ideal for those on a budget, who love printing their most cherished memories.

Pros

  • Automatic power-off feature to save battery life
  • Very light and portable
  • Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct

Cons

  • A bit pricey
  • Short battery life
  • Low input capacity

Proudly touted by Epson as “the world’s lightest and smallest mobile printer,” the Epson WorkForce Mobile Printer WF-100 is certainly one of the better portable printer options in the Philippines.

Like the Canon Pixma TR150, this portable printer can also print on various substances such as glossy photo paper, envelopes, plain paper, etc. 

Using USB, Wi-Fi, or Wi-Fi Direct, one can easily print documents, business contracts, school papers, photos, and more.

Its unique automatic power-off feature will allow you save some much-needed battery life. It also supports printing directly from your email or mobile apps which would be convenient for most users.

A downside to this portable printer is its low input capacity of just 20 pages as opposed to the 50 pages of its competitors.

It is also pricier compared to the other portable printers in the market, and its battery life is comparatively shorter as well. For comparison, the Canon Pixma TR150 can print up to 330 sheets on a full charge while this one can only print up to 100.

Overall, if you are looking for a portable printer in the Philippines that can do the same things that a full-sized printer can do, then this is the printer for you.

Pros

  • Pocket sized
  • Uses Bluetooth technology
  • AR animated photos
  • Minimalist design

Cons

  • Limited printing capabilities
  • Short battery life
  • App is only available for the Android and iOS platforms
  • Prone to scratches

The lightest of the bunch, this pocket sized, minimalist beauty weighs only 181g which is equivalent to a half-empty soda can. You can easily bring the Xiaomi Pocket Photo Printer anywhere, from road trips to parties.

On a single charge, this cute portable photo printer can print up to 20 dynamic photos. Also, its Bluetooth connection allows it to share with up to three people. 

This portable printer uses ZINK technology, which is short for Zero Ink. Instead of actual ink, it embeds microcrystal dyes in the paper. 

The upside of this technology is that you will save money on ink. It also allows the pictures to be smudge-free as well. However, you can only print up to 20 on a full charge.

Also, due to its cool AR animation capability, you can make images come to life. Simply open the app the printer comes with, hover your phone over the photo, and watch it animate. 

One drawback to this portable printer is that you can only print photos up to 2″ x 3″ in size. Also, due to its glossy exterior finish, a minor scratch would be noticeable.

Lastly, it is available only for the Android and iOS platforms.

This is perfect for fun-loving users who would enjoy turning their spontaneous moments into stickers.

Pros

Cons

  • Need to pay extra for the portable battery
  • Additional cost of the Canon Photo Paper and sublimation sheets

Another solid portable printer from Canon, the Canon Wireless Compact Photo Printer Selphy CP1300 is a handy tool for professional and amateur photographers.

After choosing from one of their color options (black, white, and pink), you’re now ready to capture special moments in style.

This sleek device is very convenient since it has various options for connectivity (via Wi-Fi, wireless PictBridge, Apple AirPrint, and the Canon PRINT mobile app). 

One of this portable printer’s advantages is its versatility. It can print different types of products such as 2.1 x 2.1″ stickers and 4 x 6″ postcards.

It also has a Party Shuffle Print feature. This allows several people to connect to the printer in order to create collages that are one-of-a-kind.

Additionally, this portable printer uses dye sublimation technology. By embedding the ink directly into the surface using heat control, it will create clearer and longer-lasting prints. 

However, this also means you have to shell out for the Canon Photo Paper and sublimation sheets. For instance, a kit which contains 108 sheets and three ink ribbons costs around Php 1,580.00.

For a portable battery, you need to shell out extra money as well. A portable battery can cost up to Php 2662.00.

If you don’t mind spending additional money for these features, then you can enjoy this portable printer’s quality prints, aesthetic design, and versatility.
