🖨️ Tiny thermal printer is a lot of fun

My daughter just turned 8, and one of her birthday gifts was a tiny thermal printer - the kind that spits out little notes, stickers and Sudokus with no ink, just magic.
She loved it ... for about a day.
Now I'm the one using it constantly for:
- Grocery lists
- Mini To-Do lists
- QR codes
- Random memes
- Fortune-cookie-style messages for the wife
- Reminders - my desk is full of little pieces of thermal paper with random texts
It comes with a nice Android app which has a lot of nice features for children like:
- templates ( even for To-Do lists )
- banners
- documents
- image printing ( can handle multiple images printing at once )
- AI drawings, translator, picture filters etc.
- even let's you create documents with inline photos ( see The Cluster photo below )

Here's a photo of the printer,

Conclusion
Apparently, the real joy of thermal printing is the friendly battle over who gets connected via Bluetooth to the printer FIRST.
Oh, and you can also print websites too.
