I wonder if there’s a better cheap thermal printer than receipt printers. The thermal printers used in ultrasound machines seem really nice.

Makes for a much more in-depth and capable version of the Game Boy Camera + Printer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Boy_Camera an object of gadget lust for me when I was growing up

Not even in my wildest dreams I would have imagined that today I would have ended my day browsing Amazon for a thermal printer.

This is fantastic work, and the final pictures are wonderful. Instant cameras immediately make everyone happy.
