The following is a video of this printer in action:

The Liene 4×6” Instant, Full-Color Wi-Fi Photo Printer works flawlessly and prints on each attempt. The wifi connection is solid and while not the fastest printer, with just a little patience the photo is ready. For most of my printing, I chose connecting to my iPhone via the device’s WiFi and printing directly from the photos app on my phone. The color accuracy of the photos is not 100%, but it is good enough to produce a nice photo and definitely good enough for anything other the professional photography.

What I like

  • The simple but sleek look
  • The build quality
  • The simple setup process and ease of printing via multiple options
  • The decent quality of the photos it produces

What I’d change

  • It does what it is designed to do. However, it would be even better if it offered a removable and rechargeable battery for true portability.

Final thoughts

As a professional photographer, I use an expensive instant photo printer to offer my client on-site and on-demand photos from the event. While I would not rate the Liene 4×6” Instant, Full-Color Wi-Fi Photo Printer in the same category, it does produce decent photos and is great for family gatherings and events where there is a desire to capture memories. For the price, I give it a well done!!
