Overview

The Canon Ivy 2 Mini Photo Printer brings the fun of instant photography into the smartphone era. Using ZINK (Zero Ink) technology, it produces 2x3-inch color prints without any ink cartridges—the color is built right into the specially coated paper. Each print comes with a peel-and-stick adhesive backing, making them perfect for decorating journals, laptops, gift tags, and scrapbook pages. The printer pairs with your iOS or Android device over Bluetooth 5.0, and Canon's Mini Print app lets you customize photos with filters, frames, and text before printing.

This bundle includes ZINK paper so you can start printing as soon as you unbox it. The Ivy 2 features improved photo contrast, optimized skin tones, and enhanced sharpness compared to its predecessor, delivering better results for portraits and group photos. Its compact size slips easily into a purse or jacket pocket, making it an ideal companion for parties, vacations, and everyday moments you want to capture in physical form. While the small print size and per-sheet paper cost mean it is not a replacement for a full-size photo printer, the Canon Ivy 2 excels as a creative, social printing tool.
