Darkroom Software recently released an update to the popular Booth for iPad app. Update today to take advantage of Apple AirPrint in your iPad photo booth. You can now set and lock in your printer settings and print automatically to a predefined printer. Add a print button to your iPad photo booth template and users can choose the number of prints.

Air print can be pre-configured via your Master Settings.

As most industry standard dye-sublimation printers do not natively support AirPrint, we suggest using third party device. Darkroom customers have had success with the following wireless printing solutions.DNP Wireless Control Module – works with AirPrint and select DNP printers. Learn more about using it with Darkroom Booth here. Read more and purchase from Imaging Spectrum.

Hi, by enabling the AirPrint will give option to cut double 2×6 using dye sublimation printer?
Hi Donna, it depends on the printer and the AirPrint module you are using. Check out this knowledge base article and video for more explanation. Cheers!
Hi Wally,
I just found this video and was excited to now enable automatic printing to my DNP printers via Aircastpro.
“print automatically to a predefined printer.”
However, it appeared on the video that you selected “print”. Did this happen automatically? If yes, where do we set the automatic print count?
Since adding DR Booth for Ipad to my PB systems, the major issue has been that unlike DR Booth, there seems to be no way to setup auto print; thus my attendants have to select “print” after each session. This is not only an inconvenience but also requires occasional reprints due to timeouts.
BTW: we used to use DR Hotfolder to autoprint but that stopped working weeks ago after an IOS update. Is this working now?
Hi Jim,
For now, you do need to click the print button after each session. We are looking into adding an “Always Print” option in the future.
