Photo Quality and Printing Process

The Liene M100 uses thermal dye sublimation technology, which applies color dyes in four layers (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, and a protective overcoat) to deeply penetrate the paper. This process ensures vibrant, full-color prints with excellent durability.

Troubleshooting

Photos Not Appearing in App

If some photos from your phone's gallery do not appear in the Liene App, try editing the missing photos individually on your phone. This action can sometimes refresh their visibility within the app. Ensure your app is updated to the latest version.

Connectivity Issues

If you experience issues connecting to the printer's Wi-Fi hotspot, ensure the printer is powered on and the Wi-Fi indicator light is flashing or solid blue. Try restarting both your device and the printer. Confirm that your device's operating system and the Liene App are up to date.

Print Quality Issues
