Fujifilm cameras and Instax printer compatibility

  
 
p.1 #1Fujifilm cameras and Instax printer compatibility
Are there any Instax printers that work with Fujifilm cameras? I recently attempted the Instax Wide printer with the Fujifilm X-E4 and X-Pro3, but they couldn't connect.

Apparently only the Fuji X-S10 can print directly to the current Instax Link printers? If so, why is this option available in the camera firmware for other Fujifilm cameras?

Thanks in advance.

I did some more research, and it seems the Fujifilm Instax SP-3 Mobile Printer might allow direct printing from certain Fujifilm cameras. The information hasn't been updated, but the X-E3 is supported, and there's a chance the X-E4 is too.

Has anyone given this combo a try?

Fred,

I did the same research a month ago or so...

I don't think they have chosen to go there since that original X-E compatibility. It seems an obvious thing to put into the cameras, but I'm guessing they figure the real market is cell phone use and so they won't spend the effort to add it.

The only way I have heard to print from the camera is to send it to your cell phone first and then print from there.

I have a Fuji X70 and the Instax connectivity is meant for older printers like the SP-1 and SP-2. Logically the SP-3 should work with cameras around the same generation and newer.

Thanks guys. I am wondering if the SP-3 works with the X-E4 or X-Pro3 since these cameras have that option in the firmware.

Yes, the SP-3 works with the X-E4 and X-Pro3. I have used those combinations many times with no issues.

It's odd that the newest "Link" bluetooth models do not work with the Fuji cameras directly, but here we are.

I just print the keepers from my camera roll, but yeah it'd be slick to print directly from my X100...

I purchased a SP-3 to work the X-E4. Thanks for confirming this!

I got the SP-3 yesterday and it works perfectly with my E4!
I wish sometimes could reload a JPEG back to the camera after editing but at that point I would just print from my phone.

Wow I didn't know that they brought this ability to X series cameras. Pretty good way to tie in the Instax crowd to the X series. Their Instax business is pumping.
