Great pick for a dedicated 4×6 printer
Great color. Prints looks really good.I’m getting better color printing JPGs directly from the phone or using a basic app like Preview on the Mac, vs directly out of Photoshop.B&W looks faithful as well.Edit: I did get the USB connection working on the Mac, I’m unsure why it did not work out of the box.Connection is a bit of a irritation with me. I can not get the USB connection to be recognized on the Mac, so I have to use the device’s built it wifi hotspot (it does not connect to your wifi, it only has it’s own), which means that if I wasn’t also network hardwired, I would have no internet while printing from the Mac.As far as I can tell so far, there no way to set the sleep time on the device. I’d like to use this on set to spit out quick proofs throughout the day. The printer goes to sleep though, and then it shuts off it’s wifi, which means that I have to turn it back on and reconnect to the printers wifi. A small but irritating gripe, when what I would like to do is set this up in a corner and send prints to it through out the day.The iOS app is OK, it does feel like a bit few too many step to print the way I’d like to, it would be nice if I could set up some printing defaults (uncropped, border, etc).5 Stars now that printing via USB on Mac is sorted. It still sleeps, so I have to make sure to turn it back on if I take a break of more than a minute or two.Update after a couple weeks and hundreds of prints. It’s almost flawless. I’ve had exactly two printing errors in almost 400 prints. One was a small dot, that might have been debris on the paper or maybe a missing bit of dye on the ink ribbon. The second error was that it went through a print cycle when it was out of paper, wasting a prints worth of ink. Still, much much better than an ink jet printer.I’m loving this little printer, it’s really great to get all these images off my phone’s camera roll, and the mountain of just walking around images I shoot with my pocket camera.

Excellent print quality, but serious software and documentation issues
[ Update July 18, 2025. The company got in touch regarding some of the observations in the review and has said they’re working on software and documentation updates. I appreciate their response and for that reason I’m adding 1 star to the rating. If the software updates are good I’ll definitely increase to 5 stars. Considering the excellent print quality, it’s certainly worth 5 stars.]The print quality is fantastic. I’ve been taking and printing photographs for a long time and have never seen such excellent quality right out of the box, so to speak. The Liene completely smokes my wife’s older Epson 4×6 inkjet printer (which we stopped using due to connection problems and inkjet clogging).«Liene Image quality»Given a properly exposed and correctly color-balanced original image, you’ll get outstanding print quality—see the photos I’ve attached to the review. The reproduction of the bright red in the one picture is flawless. (Both were taken by a mobile phone.) Neither photo has gained or lost contrast. The neutral areas are very clean. Highlight detail is preserved perfectly. The prints are 99% faithful to the originals. Excellent results.«Connection»We connected a Google Pixel 7A and an iPhone 16 to the printer without difficulty right after installing the Liene apps. The connections were instant—faster than Bluetooth.Now the bad news—why I gave the printer 3 stars instead of the 5 stars it deserves (!).Part of the problem is the software itself. There are also major documentation issues. Liene has got to improve its documentation!«Internet access disabled»Apparently by design, the Liene private wifi network is not meant to connect to the internet. On both Android and iPhone, when we connect the phones to the printer their internet access is disabled even if the phones are still connected to our home wifi. I’m guessing this is how it’s supposed to work when a phone connects to a private wifi network lacking internet access.When we were running the Liene app and wanted to connect from within it to Liene’s own site, we first had to turn off the phone-to-printer connection.It might all be by design but it was downright confusing until we realized the private network was the problem. Liene should document this _explicitly_.«Compatibility issue: Lenovo tablet»The Google Play store informed me that the Liene app can’t be installed on my Lenovo tablet, which is running the latest Android version. The software just isn’t compatible with that model. Disappointing. I don’t know if this applies to other Android tablets or iPads. It’s another thing Liene should document explicitly. (But, why not make the app compatible with tablets in the first place?)«Unpleasant bug in the iPhone app»When I print from the Android phone, when I’m done I can return immediately to my photo gallery (within the Liene app) and find something else to print. No such luck with the iPhone.After my wife made her first print on the iPhone, the Liene app has remained stuck on that first image. We haven’t been able to “clear” the photo and display her photo gallery again within the app. It seems to me we’ll have to uninstall and reinstall the app on her phone. But then we might have the same problem again. Super annoying.She did find a workaround: She opens the iPhone’s photo gallery, picks one or more image(s), and prints directly to the Liene. But then she can’t select certain features provided by the Liene app. She’s ok with it for now, but it’s far from ideal. That bug needs fixing.The workaround doesn’t work at all on my Android phone. When I try it, I get only an error message saying that the phone can’t find the printer, even though they are already connected. It’s another thing Liene needs to fix.«Annoying design flaw in the Android app»I was kind of astonished that I can print only one image at a time via the Liene app. It does not support selecting more than one image at a time. Come on, Liene—why limit the software that way? It isn’t exactly a benefit to the user.Conclusion:So we figured out how to deal with these issues, and as I say the print quality is outstanding. We’ll live with limitations for now considering the high quality prints. But Liene REALLY needs to work on its software issues and documentation.

Great quality
I love this photo printer! The pictures come out very clear and appear better than anticipated. Paying for this is well worth it and more convenient and cheaper than paying to have photos printed. Plus, I think they turn out clearer. It takes a minute or two to actually print the photo but I didn’t mind waiting for it. No issue with jams

Great job from Liene . Very good photo printer for travel, home . Will support again . Tks

Es excelente producto el que pego trae dos cartuchos y 80 hojas,imprime con los colores tal cual es la imagen,lo que me gustó es que su aplicación trae aunque solo dos opciones para editar tu foto.lo recomiendo.
