Polaroid PoGo™
Instant Mobile Printer
WHAT IT IS: Polaroid PoGo™ – short for Polaroid-
on-the-go – is a pocket-sized, inkless digital printer
that produces full-color photos wirelessly from cell
phones and via PictBridge from digital cameras.
Weighing only eight ounces, Polaroid PoGo™
provides consumers with a convenient solution to
sharing digital images trapped on cell phones and
digital cameras.

Smudge-proof, water-
resistant, virtually
tear-proof photos
Fade-resistant,
long-lasting images

HOW IT WORKS: The full-color
digital photos are created without
ink cartridges or ribbons using ZINK
Photo Paper™, keeping the printer size
to about the size of a deck of cards.
The paper is a durable material that
contains colorless cyan, yellow and
magenta dye crystals. Heat activation
brings photos to life, colorizing ZINK™

Print Instantly: From a Cell Phone
Passcode: 6-0-0-0
The Polaroid PoGo™ Instant Mobile Printer is the easiest way to print photos
from a cell phone. Wirelessly transfer images from a Bluetooth-enabled cell
phone to the mobile printer and print instantly. Using the built-in OBEX (object
exchange profile) Bluetooth in the phone and printer, connecting and printing
becomes instant.
The following is an example for connecting to the printer and printing your
images. The terminology used in your cell phone may be different—for specific
directions for your phone, visit http: //polaroid.com/pogo /comptool/index.html.
1. Select the image you would like to print from the
stored images on your cell phone. In the “options”
menu, select “send via Bluetooth.” Search for
devices, select the Polaroid printer and print.
2. If you are unable to print from “send via Bluetooth,”
select “connectivity” or “Bluetooth” under the
“settings” or “tools” menu. Search for devices and
select the Polaroid printer. Once paired, go back
to stored images and select the image you want to
print. In the “options” menu, select “beam” or “send
via Bluetooth.” Select the Polaroid printer and print.
3. If your cell phone does not include “send via
Bluetooth” under the “options” menu, select the
image you want to print. Go to the “options” menu
and select “print via Bluetooth.” Search for devices,
select the Polaroid printer and print.

Print Instantly: From a
Digital Camera
Instantly printing images from a digital camera is as
easy as connecting the PictBridge-enabled camera
to the printer. Once connected, follow the PictBridge
screen on the camera display. Simply select what
image to send to the printer and within 60 seconds,
the print is ready to be shared.
The following is an example for connecting to the
printer and printing your images. The terminology
used in your camera may be different.
1. Connect your digital camera and printer to determine if a print option or printer icon is
automatically displayed on the camera screen.
2. If no print option appears, select “menu” and navigate to confirm that PictBridge is enabled.
Note: If “USB” is displayed under “settings,” then PictBridge is NOT enabled.
3. Once PictBridge is enabled, select the image you want to print and follow the on-screen
instructions.
Notes:
Do not disconnect the USB cord until entire printing process is complete.
Do not turn off the printer while printing.
Do not open paper tray door while printing.
To print the date on your photo, ensure the Date Stamp feature on your digital camera is enabled.
Does not print when connected to a PC.
For specific printing directions for your digital camera, review your digital camera user’s manual or
the manufacturer’s Web site.
