Mini Printer

 I had such a cool idea for Biology!  I ordered a mini printer from Walmart.  The idea was to capture images and make stickers to use in notes and study guides, such as a cell model to annotate.  I should have known that an inexpensive model would be a disaster.  But, I’m an optimist.  I scanned the QR code from the instructions to download the app.  Nope.  But, the site identified the correct app.  Once I downloaded the app to my iPad, I checked that Bluetooth was on in settings.  I checked for paper and turned on the printer.  (It connected with a USB to a laptop.)  once I scanned an image, I got error messages repeatedly when I tried to print.  Booooo!  I declared defeat after several attempts.  There is no way this is practical for any Co-op class.  I guess we’ll draw or cut up graphics we print on standard printers.  The mini printer is going back to Walmart.
