I picked up this cheap kids camera that prints on receipt paper and it might be the coolest camera I own now???

Edit: If you purchase one you might want to look for BPA & BPS free paper, will report back once I test some if it prints any differently!

This is an image of a gray instant camera with two lenses on the front, labeled "2x powerful zoom" and "F/2.4-4.3mm" respectively. Above the right lens, there is a small red button. To the right of the lenses, there's a compartment that likely houses the flash, and a speaker grill. Below the camera, there's a printed photograph with a pattern of wavy lines in shades of black and white. The camera is resting on a dark surface, and there's a textured fabric in the background that appears to be part of a basket or container.

You are looking at a collection of black and white printed photographs spread out on a marble surface. The photos feature a variety of subjects including musical instruments, plants, geometric patterns, and a person with a camera. To the left of the photographs, there is a gray instant camera similar to the one in the previous image, with two lenses and red details. There are also two rolls of film or paper next to it. The surface below is cluttered with other indistinct items, and part of a woven basket can be seen in the bottom left corner.

@eeen OMG, another of these awesome projects I have all the parts for.

@eeen I have a box of blue-ish BPA free paper for my ToDo-Ticket-Printer and I don’t think it has he same appeal as the black/white paper in your pictures.
The contrast is relatively low and the surface scratches easily. On the surface it's basically a thin layer of foamed wax that becomes transparent to the blue background color when heated.
It works well for receipts and such and does not contain any dangerous chemicals - and I like that it is based on a simple, physical principle.
