Yes, you did read that right. How it WorksZINK® stands for Zero Ink® - a technology that produces photo-quality, full-color print without using ink cartridges, ribbons, or toner. The technology encompasses both the ZINK Paper® within each zRoll™ and the intelligence embedded in every ZINK Smart APP Printer™ The fundamental concept is simple, yet extraordinary: Heat from the hAppy or hAppy+ activates the unique color-forming crystals embedded in the layers of ZINK Paper. Color then emerges to form a full-color print.ZINK Paper® -- Innovations in PhysicsThe cyan, yellow, and magenta dye crystals that enable the magic of ZINK, were invented by ZINK Imaging scientists through a rigorous discovery process. Each molecule is finely tuned, colorless and invisible to the naked eye. When activated at very high temperatures for fractions of a second, the crystals move from colorless to colored to create beautiful images. When cooled, the crystals new color state is permanently retained.ZINK® Dye Crystals -- Magic MoleculesWith each zRoll is more than 19' of ZINK Paper®, an advanced composite material composed of multiple layers of color-forming chemistry. The multiple layers are coated as a think "stack" onto a base layer. A polymer coating protects the layers from moisture, UV exposure, and fading. Amazingly, all the layers combined is less than the thickness of a human hair. ZINK Paper looks like regular white photo paper until heat activates the different color layers independently to create full-color.

Has good potential, just for my use cases the technology ...
Stickers don't yet hold up well to the elements. If your kids accidently get it wet for example, it will split the sticker into the different layers used to make up the colors. Has good potential, just for my use cases the technology needs more time to mature.

Nice product, but the Happy is better than the Happy +
It's a cool product, but the screen is just too small. Buying the system without the screen and using your tablet is a better option in my opinion.

Sadly disappointed
This product should be taken off the market until it has had all of it's issues fixed. I was very excited to get the Zink Happy but was very disappointed, I recieved one that the zink paper roll and cleaning roll was missing and there was someone's food on the instruction booklet, also it didn't work. I sent it back, I recieved another one which to my disapointment I couldn't get it to work either, and again there was no paper roll or cleaning roll. I hope this product gets fixed, it has the potential to be awesome.

Absolutely love this gadget!!! Perfecto!!!
Absolutely love this product. I use it to print labels for my egg cartons for when I sell my farm fresh duck and chicken eggs. It holds to the carton even in the fridge. The print quality is amazing, no smearing, no waiting for it to dry, I could go on and on about why I love it. I use a lot of computers and tech and I love how simple this is for anyone to be able to use and enjoy. Love the mail app as well for mailing labels... the projects are endless with this and I love the touch screen and the fact I can blue tooth between computers and iPad and even the touch screen to do projects. Perfecto!!!!

Don't buy! Waste of money.
The item is defective and the Zink company offers no real support. Absolute waste of money. I am very disappointed. Only worked properly for 3 prints and gave a bunch of issues ever since.

Dont waste your money!
The product was a disappointment, it started freezing up like a cheap phone, keep saying I needed new roll when it was brand new, I turn it off to restarted it took hrs to finally shut down. Keeps saying that is not connect, so I can't print from app. Is basically a headache. Takes me about 2 hrs to print one small picture. For the price is a very poor quality product. I had high hopes regardless of the bad reviews, because is does have potential to be a very cool product but I need something faster can't wait for hrs to print something so simple.

DOA
Unit came with cracked screen, attempted to use it anyway, first 3 items printed supprisingly well, but following items would no longer cut, unit gets very hot, and now no longer identifies rolls.::Update::The unit is build with cheap motors, which have a very low duty cycle. The unit can print one item, up to 2 inch, ever 2 hours before overheating and stating the roll has been removed.
