2×6" Strip Printing
Each roll yields 2,000 2×6" strips (two strips cut from each 4×6" frame), making the P529LX well-suited for photo booth operators whose clients want the classic strip format. Strip printing is selectable without changing media.
Wireless-Ready via Prinbiz
With the optional HiTi Prinbiz WiFi dongle (available as an add-on at purchase), the P529LX accepts wireless print jobs from iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows devices via the Prinbiz App — enabling guests to print directly from their own phones at events.
Built-In LCD Display
A built-in LCD screen displays printer status, remaining print count, and settings directly on the unit, in five languages. Operators can monitor the printer without needing a connected PC — useful in busy or unattended booth environments.
Front-Loading Cabinet Design
The P529LX is fully front-loading, allowing it to be installed inside photo booth shells or enclosed cabinet setups without rear access. Media changes are straightforward, minimising downtime during events.
High Roll Capacity
At 4×6", each roll yields 1,000 prints. At 5×7", 730 prints; at 6×8", 500 prints; and at 2×6" strip, 2,000 strips. The high per-roll yield reduces the frequency of media changes during extended events.
Upgraded from P525L
The P529LX is the upgraded successor to the HiTi P525L, offering faster print speeds. It uses the same media as the P525L and P520L, so operators upgrading from those printers can continue using existing media stock.
