I carry the Sipix A6 printer -- and a box of Sipix A6 paper (sheets) -- with me in my briefcase.

Having to feed the sheets one-at-a-time into the printer is a little inconvenient. But the documents, once printed and stapled together (with the mini-stapler I carry with me), are much easier to read and file than with the A6 roll paper.

The Sipix A6 thermal paper isn't cheap. But thermal printing eliminates the need for ink jet cartridges -- which keeps the printer smaller, less expensive (to operate) and much more portable -- which is not a bad trade-off.

I bought this a couple times for my SiPix A6 Printer before find the same paper elsewhere, specifically a website that sells paper of various specialist types: Micro Format, Inc. From AceDepot through Amazon.com the paper is $13.99 per 100 plus shipping, from Micro Format the same paper is $25 per 500 plus shipping. You do the math for per sheet costs but Micro Format is significantly cheaper and you get larger quantities at a time.(I.E, it is $36 for a single carton with shipping and $62.24 for two with shipping, though they want a Credit Card) ACEDEPOT does not sell in carton (500 Sheet) and they want more per sheet than Micro Format,Inc. Simply put It's cheaper to buy this product elseware.

I don't know if the paper is of use. The company that made the product is now defunct. I was never able to get my printer to work. It came with a cable that did not work. I bought an IR device that never made a connection and then after contacting the seller, I bought the cable they said to buy. It still does not work.

El papel es de alta calidad, su presentacion y su tamaño son adecuados para pequeños reportes fuera de la oficina, el problema radica en que la "pocket printer A6" no funciona en los nuevos Sistemas Operativos de Window XP o superior.

I am really mad with this product. When somebody want to buy througt your web site missing a lot of information about the product. I supposed to get an item that I was looking for but unfortunatly the printer only work with Windows 98 despite the Cd software says it is work with XP also. I have had to buy connector, cables, because the laptop computer has not the type of connector that this printer has. To finish, I do not have time and money to send this product back. if somebody can help me to setup this printer to my laptop I'd appreciate it. I won't recomend this product to anybody.
