Dell confirms Wasabi portable printer

Inkless printing on the run

Dell has officially unveiled its oddly named Wasabi inkless photo printer.

Dell's portable Wasabi printer

The printer, which is also known by the slightly more palatable “PZ310” moniker, was first spied in a picture published online last month. But the printer’s technical specifications didn’t emerge alongside the image.

However, the PC assembly firm has since confirmed that Wasabi is a Bluetooth-enabled gadget designed to print out your pictures from mobile phones, cameras and such.

Images are printed using inkless technology

It uses inkless printing technology from specialist Zink to produce 2 x 3in prints which have a sticky backing. The printer itself measures 4.8in x 2.8in x 0.9in.

Dell’s Wasabi printer is available now online for the promotional price of $99, but when the deal ends the printer’s prince will jump to $149 (£103/€115). You can also choose between a blue, pink or black model. ®

Market?

So who actually wants 3x2" sticky prints? Especially at the somewhat silly price per print.

Are these going to end up anywhere but stuck on fridges?
