worked out of the box December 21, 2008
morph (Port Jefferson, NY United States)
I was pleased that the printer worked right away after installing the software. The print quality was quite good also. I previously ordered the Planon printer which worked ok from my BlackBerry (though only for email and photos but not web pages) but I was never able to get it to print from my laptop so I just returned it.
Very Convenient. November 15, 2008
Martial Arts Damsel (Cypress, Texas United States)
Definitely one of the most convenient thing to have while travelling. It is small enough to fit in whatever you place your laptop especialy with the retractable USB. I recommend this product 100%.

I've been using the PocketJet on the road now for 6 months or so and it has worked flawlessly. Though, know that this is not a plain paper printer. I thought for a while before I bought and so far I am not disappointed. It was very easy to set up and is simple to use.Pentax PocketJet 3 Plus 300-DPI Mobile Printer with Integrated USB/IrDA
It really works August 1, 2006

I bought this printer to take with me on an extended trip to Europe. It arrived 6 days before my trip began and I could never get it to work during the first day. I called the service number in Colorado and they immediately shipped me a new printer and a new cord since we concluded that it was the cord that might not be working. I received the new printer next day shipping and returned my printer to them in the box they had sent and kept everything else that had been included in the Amazon shipment. I also purchased the paper on a roll since that was easier to pack and seemed to work better for printing out longer documents (rather than having to hand feed every page).
I am now concluding my three week trip and have used the printer almost every day. It really works. I recommend it highly. And I was impressed with the quick service turnaround by the company.
Super small - super convenient June 28, 2006

I got this Pentax printer for my recent 2 week trip to the UK. The Pocketjet3 Plus works like a charm. The print quality is decent, but I recommend setting it to the darkest setting because the default setting is usually too pale.
I charged the battery before my trip, printed about 30 pages during the 2 weeks in London, and the battery still has more than 50% charge left 3 weeks later.
You'll probably get a few interested stares if you use this printer in a public setting. I got a lot of curious looks at the Red Carpet Lounge at United Airlines. People found it curious something that small can print 8-1/2" by 11" paper. The folks at airport security were also curious a printer can be that small, fitting into my backpack.
The printer comes with a nice carrying case. But I suggest buying a small USB retractable cable for the printer, so that the printer and the retractable cable can all fit nicely into the one carrying case. I used a retractable USB cable that I bought for my Sony PSP for the Pentax printer instead. The USB cable that comes with the Pentax is too long and big to fit into the case together with the printer.
The printer is a bit on the expensive side, but considering the benefits: super convenience, portability, small size, and no need for printer cartridges -- you'll be proud of your purchase.
