I recently had burst of vintage digicam nostalgia. For her birthday, my daughter received a toy digital camera that instanly printed photos on thermal receipt paper. It's great fun, and the print quality has lovely B&W dithering. Her gift reminded me of my Gameboy Camera and printer. The printer worked by printing on thermal stickers. I bought several Gameboy Cameras back when they could be found in discount bins for 10 USD. I bought a Gameboy printer off ebay and it came with several rolls of tape. Still have it all in my basement.

> For her birthday, my daughter received a toy digital camera that instanly printed photos on thermal receipt paper. I got one of those recently. Immensely gratifying to have the photo printed immediately (even if all the tourists in London look at you funny.) Wish the camera was a little better but then again it's probably not worth it given you're printing relatively lo-res B&W dithered output...
