Transform your digital snapshots into professional-grade, frame-ready photographs with the Liene Amber M100 Photo Printer. Designed for the home studio, this desktop printer delivers classic 4x6 inch (10 x 15 cm) prints that rival traditional photo labs in quality and durability.
Unlike smaller instant cameras, the Amber M100 utilizes advanced Thermal Dye Sublimation technology. This process layers colors onto the paper to create stunningly vivid, high-resolution images. This specific model (w/o Battery) is designed for stationary use, powered directly via a wall outlet, making it an excellent permanent addition to your living room, home office, or crafting station.
Key Features & Technologies
- Thermal Dye Sublimation: A 4-pass printing technique that applies Yellow, Magenta, and Cyan dyes sequentially, followed by a protective layer, ensuring deeply saturated colors and fine details.
- Protective Laminate Layer: The final clear coat makes every photo water-resistant, scratch-proof, and fingerprint-resistant, preventing fading for decades.
- Built-in Wi-Fi Hotspot: The printer generates its own Wi-Fi signal for a stable and fast connection to your smartphone, avoiding the instability of public or crowded home networks.
- Starter Kit Included: Comes ready to use with a "20+1" supply kit containing 20 sheets of photo paper and 1 ink cartridge.
- Liene Photo App: Edit your photos, add borders, apply filters, and even print ID photos directly from the user-friendly companion app.

Design and Build Quality
The Liene Amber M100 features a sleek, minimalist aesthetic in a clean white finish that blends seamlessly with modern home decor. It is designed to be space-saving; the paper cassette attaches to the front for printing but can be detached or stored on top of the unit when not in use to reduce its footprint.
The build quality feels premium and sturdy, suitable for regular family use. The side ink cartridge slot is covered by a neat flap, keeping the internal mechanisms dust-free. As a mains-powered device, it prioritizes consistent power delivery for uninterrupted printing sessions.
Size and Weight
While capable of producing large standard photos, the printer itself remains compact. With dimensions of approximately 205 x 124.6 x 85.4 mm, it takes up very little desk space compared to traditional inkjet printers.
Weighing around 1.2 kg, it is substantial enough to sit firmly on your desk during operation but light enough to move from room to room if needed (provided there is a power outlet nearby).
Ease of Use
Setting up the Liene Amber M100 is straightforward. Simply plug it into power, download the app, and connect to the printer's dedicated Wi-Fi network. The One-Click printing feature in the app streamlines the process, so you don't need to be a tech expert to get great results.
The consumable system is designed for simplicity. The ink cartridge simply slides into the side, and the paper loads into the front cassette. The app even alerts you when supplies are running low.
Real-life Applications
- Family Albums: Print standard 4x6 photos to fill traditional physical photo albums with high-quality memories.
- Home Decoration: Create a photo wall or frame your favorite shots for display on mantels and desks.
- ID Photos: Use the app's template feature to print compliant ID or passport photos at home.
- Postcards: The sturdy nature of dye-sublimation prints makes them perfect for sending as personalized postcards.
- Creative Projects: Ideal for vision boards, mood boards, and school projects requiring high-definition imagery.
Compatibility
The Amber M100 offers broad compatibility across devices. It works seamlessly with iOS and Android smartphones via the Liene App. Additionally, it supports printing from PC and Mac computers via Wi-Fi, making it a versatile tool for the whole family.
For supplies, this printer uses the specific Liene Amber M100 refill kits (Paper + Ink Cartridge bundles), ensuring the chemistry between the dye and paper is perfectly matched for longevity.
