BRAMPTON, ON., OCTOBER 5, 2022 – Some say a picture is worth a thousand words, and a small, portable photo printer is a fun, easy – and straight-up cool – way to bring your unique and unforgettable moments to life. To help creators share and save memories with family and friends, Canon Canada Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, is excited to announce the new version of the IVY Mini Photo Printer – the IVY 2. The IVY 2 is an upgrade from its predecessor, delivering higher quality pictures, a faster charging battery and better connectivity, enabling DIY creators to “Print, Peel, Stick and Go” with even more personal, customized creative expression.

IVY creators quickly and easily print photos of family, friends, pets or any other source of inspiration from their compatible smartphone¹ onto sticky photo paper and add them to a scrapbook, a laptop or virtually anywhere you can think of, all with a compact printer that fits easily in a small purse, even your pocket. Plus, a new, expanded 100-sheet photo sticker paper pack (purchased separately) frees up everyday IVY users to continually update their self-expression without the continued worry of running out of sheets.

For kids who enjoy decorating and sharing stickers with friends, this second generation of the IVY Mini Photo Printer is the perfect tool. After taking pictures from a compatible smartphone or tablet¹, simply “print, peel, stick and go” – peel off the back of the printed photo and stick the picture to personal belongings, in your journal or in a scrapbook with favourite photos. Parents can make great use of the IVY 2 too, printing pictures to add to a photo album, their fridge, and other creative spaces.

The IVY 2 easily fits in your pocket or bag, making it convenient to carry place to place. The printer is available in two colours – pure white and blush pink. It takes just a few minutes to set up, and the multicolour LED clearly tells you the printer status. Using a compatible USB cable, you can fully charge the printer in as little as 45 minutes². The IVY 2 easily connects to your compatible smartphone with Bluetooth® and utilizes ZINK Zero Ink™ Technology from ZINK™, an amazing way to print in full colour without the need for ink cartridges. ZINK paper is available in pre-cut circle sticker form (purchased separately) for those whose lives can’t be confined to straight edges.

To set and send print jobs, users can download the free Canon Mini Printer App¹, which offers the option to print individual smudge-free 2x3 prints or stickers. From selfies to sunsets, this feature offers the freedom of expression for a wide variety of consumers. The app includes creative filters, such as photo frames and stickers, image collage templates, as well as additional photo-editing tools including added text, fun frames and the option to draw.

Price and Availability

The Canon IVY 2 Mini Photo Printer is available now for an estimated retail price is $159.99* CAD, which includes the printer and a starter pack of 10 sheets of 2x3 photo paper. The Canon ZINK Photo Paper Pack will also be available for the first time with 100 sheets later this year. For more information, please visit www.canon.ca/en/consumer.
