5 Tips for Best Results
with Your Prinker
Most issues people run into are easy to avoid. Watch this 30-second video, then keep the five tips below handy for your first session.
The five tips at a glance
Prep your skin
Clean, dry skin with no lotion or sunscreen gives the best ink transfer. Wipe the area with a dry cloth before printing.
Hold flat and still
Keep the Prinker flush against your skin and move it in one smooth, steady pass. Lifting mid-print causes gaps.
Let it dry completely
Give the tattoo 30–60 seconds to dry before touching it. Smudging happens when people check too soon.
Shake the cartridge first
Give the ink cartridge a few gentle shakes before inserting. This keeps the ink evenly distributed for consistent colour.
Charge before your event
A full charge takes about 90 minutes and lasts for hundreds of prints. Never arrive at an event on low battery.
