Great video/explanation! - for those folks who have more than one event/prints a day, you can also add a DNP WCM Plus Wireless Connect Module, which elimites the need to have a laptop, and will print wirelessly from ipad -> printer via the wcm plus, very affordable than buying a new laptop. Drew keep the good content!
Drew - your content is the best. I just learned that I won’t need to invest in a WCM Plus with this method. Thank you so much. I’ve been watching many of your tutorials lately and learning tons.
I thank God for you! I couldn't figure out how to get the photos cut with Luma assist, thank you so much! may God bless you and your family and your business immensely!
Lightning or USB C cable (via Apple Camera adapter dongle) connected to the print server (Aircast Pro/WCM/Raspberry Pi/Laptop), then another USB cable from the print server device to the printer. Cellular on your iPad would be useful if you're doing live uploads for text and email sharing of images (this has the potential to use lot of data, so you may want to consider other options).
Connect printer to laptop. The laptop needs wifi so use iPad to give laptop wifi. Laptop and iPad work together on same wifi connection. It’s not a wireless printer. Although it appears to be wireless it’s not. The printers being controlled by laptop not the iPad.
Hey Drew, Love all your videos! So helpful! I purchased a hiti P525L printer and I’m having trouble adjusting the prints to cut down the middle for 2x6 prints any ideas how to adjust it?
hi. it's mean, if we use lumabooth ipad, we cannot connect printer directly. but we can connect to luma-assistant which has been installed in other window pc/laptop which connected to the DNP printer. both iPad and window PC must be connected to a same network. correct me if I am wrong.
Hi Drew,im new in the business. Can you also suggest on how to fix if the 2x6 print out is not aligned to the other strip? What should be the correct alignment settings. Appreciate your advise.
Keep up the great content Drew, I find a lot of useful info on the ipad photo booth business from your channel. Hi LumaBooth users, does anyone know how of a good guide or video explaining how to adjust the color profile on a DNP DS40 printer? When I print from my ipad photo booth the people's faces will have red tint even though the image looks normal on the ipad screen.
if you're using a laptop between ipad/printer make sure to download your printer's ICC profile from downloads/drivers page from DNP or whatever brand your printer is.
Hi Drew, I had this all set up at home using the Ethernet connection to my laptop with windows and it worked great. Took it to an event and Lumabooth assistant wouldn't connect with the laptop. Now I have it set up at home again to try to figure things out and Lumabooth assistant connected right away to laptop. But, now it won't print. What am I missing? Thanks!
Thanks so much - you are awesome. My wiifibooth shopped printing via my dnp and I spend over 6 hours and still could not figure it out. I listened to your video, used my laptop and was able to print and use lumabooth and software in less than two hours....
I'm a little confused- does the laptop have to stay set up by the iPad photo booth kiosk, and I have to click it for guests each time? Or is it just initial in-app set up, launch event and then the Lumabooth app will tell the printer to print? Oooor is it set up, leave laptop open/near by, and printer will be alerted? I don't know how to connect all three wire wise. I know y'all do a lot of drop off kiosk events- how do you have people print then?
Hey drew, I tried to leave u a comment on tik tok but it wouldn’t let me. My question is I did everything you did BUT my laptop is telling me that the printer size is not correct how do I fix the print size on my MacBook?
So do you have your laptop connected to your tablets data as a hotspot during events? I just bought a laptop with my cell phone service instead of buying a hotspot to connect a tablet to.
Hey Drew, I know this is a late comment, but have you notices that the cuts aren't perfect? do you know how this can be fixed? if you have a lot of graphics on the edges you can easily see the miss cut? any idea ? thank you!!! love you
@@REDEYE920 I love you too! This is easy to fix. Go under print setup and you will see the alignment section. Adjust the alignment until you get it to print how you like it
What is the earliest model/generation Ipad can you use for this type of set up? I have an Ipad mini 5th gen. Would that be enough or shuld I use an Ipad?
Hello Sir, Thank you for the informative content. I followed everything and it says connected but my pictures did not print. Is there anyway you can provide more assistance. Thank you.
great video. how can you do both text and print? my mobile hotspot does not does not allow lumabooth to communicate to the assist. i can get it to work on my home network though. any thoughts would be great.
Which printer do you have for events? Where are you purchasing the different size printing paper for the different options. *bought an ipad photo booth for my own event, now id like to start a photo booth business and while initially id like to do only drop-off, as i make money, ill eventually purchase a printer for other event types. EVENT SEASON IS STARTING!!!
Thank you for this video! The only problem I have now is now that I I want 4x6 instead of 2x6 my DNP keeps cutting my photos in two but only when I use LumaBooth. I can’t figure out how to disable it in LumaBooth. My printer settings are disabled. Any advise?
@@hustlewithdrew Hi and yes. It only cuts them in strips when using LumaBooth. If I print from my picture folder on my laptop it comes out 4x6. The 2x6 is disabled on Luma assist, luma booth and my computer. Strange. I have turned my computer off. I’ve reset the printer I guess the next thing I could do is just delete and reinstall LumaBooth app. Hopefully that helps. I didn’t know if there was something else I needed to do or if this has ever happened to you. Update: Snappic prints them in 4x6 but LumaBooth is still cutting them in two strips.
do you guys think there is quality difference in using difference softwares? like using salsa booth or touch pix instead of lumabooth? or will the ipad front camera create the same quality for all
Hello can you please help me I am having a nightmare, I have brought a photobooth from alibaba , I told them the sort of design I wanted in my head and they have sent me something that I cannot get my head around :( so I have a hiti p525l printer, the phonobooth has a built in windows PC screen on the back and an I pad in the front with a camera above, I wanted the ipad to control the photobooth with lumabooth, the camera to take the photo and the back screen just for decroative reasons , but luma booth won't pick up the HitiP525L printer , so do you know if it is only possible using the dnp?
what if you don't have wifi? can't you just hook up the iPad to the computer? I'm hoping to do this with just an iPad and a mini windows computer, no laptop
Depends on how many people take pics. The sheets can be bought on Amazon it comes with ink and 1400 sheets. Make sure the printers compatible with that ink and Amazon has it because I get mine there

I thank God for you! I couldn't figure out how to get the photos cut with Luma assist, thank you so much! may God bless you and your family and your business immensely!
How do I connect the printer and iPad if my
iPad has cellular
Did the answer come out to this
Lightning or USB C cable (via Apple Camera adapter dongle) connected to the print server (Aircast Pro/WCM/Raspberry Pi/Laptop), then another USB cable from the print server device to the printer. Cellular on your iPad would be useful if you're doing live uploads for text and email sharing of images (this has the potential to use lot of data, so you may want to consider other options).
Connect printer to laptop. The laptop needs wifi so use iPad to give laptop wifi. Laptop and iPad work together on same wifi connection. It’s not a wireless printer. Although it appears to be wireless it’s not. The printers being controlled by laptop not the iPad.
I’m so confused so if my iPad has cellular there is no wifi do I use the hotspot on my iPad for the laptop 🫣
Yes @@LisaGarcia-jg2fl
For places where there is no
Wi-Fi are we good just running on hotspot?
Yes. The important part is that the laptop and iPad are on the same network/hotspot.
Most informative DIY Photo Booth I’ve seen. Thank you!

Great video very detailed. I also am running Luma Booth . Thank you so much. This was a great help.
Hi Drew,im new in the business. Can you also suggest on how to fix if the 2x6 print out is not aligned to the other strip? What should be the correct alignment settings. Appreciate your advise.
How can I add an image to the printer paper like yours ??? Mine comes out white
Exactly the information I came looking for! Thank you!
Do you recommend providing your own hot spot, for this setup? so you not relying on the customer wifi.
This is exactly what I was wondering
Use your own hotspot primarily and theres as a backup. Some places don’t even have Wi-Fi.
Can I use any kind of laptop ??? I tried it with apple Mac book and I seem to figure out

Now I have it set up at home again to try to figure things out and Lumabooth assistant connected right away to laptop. But, now it won't print. What am I missing? Thanks!
Will SMS sharing still work with this set up? We don't need a router for this right?

Hi drew, is there a way to do this on a MacBook? I can’t seem to find the place to change to 2x6?
Finally got it! But my prints are just printing one in the center of 4x6 and cutting it in half.. do you have a video on how you calibrate it😩
I'm a little confused- does the laptop have to stay set up by the iPad photo booth kiosk, and I have to click it for guests each time? Or is it just initial in-app set up, launch event and then the Lumabooth app will tell the printer to print? Oooor is it set up, leave laptop open/near by, and printer will be alerted?

I personally never do drop off , when there is printing involve.
To anwser your question, You don't have do touch the laptop once it's set up !
Hi, what happen if I dont have other laptop, only my Ipad? Can I make a 2x6 print photo? Thank you

How much paper do you use on average per event?
So do you have your laptop connected to your tablets data as a hotspot during events? I just bought a laptop with my cell phone service instead of buying a hotspot to connect a tablet to.
What is a print driver to download?
Hi Drew. My DNP 620A package deal came with 5 X 7 paper. I don’t see an option for cutting that into 2 strips. Do you know how to do that?
Thank you for sharing do the pictures print bigger
can we use for any software as i use curator for my digital booth
Can I print 4x6 and 2x6 at the same event or do I have to choose only one per event?
DPN printers lets you print 4x6 and/or 2x6 for the same event, you just need to configure each template basically having two templates
Hey Drew, I know this is a late comment, but have you notices that the cuts aren't perfect? do you know how this can be fixed? if you have a lot of graphics on the edges you can easily see the miss cut? any idea ? thank you!!! love you

Thanks for this video, I just need the printer let me know when you have it available 🙏🏾
Hello. Is this printer the same as DNP DS-RX1HS? And if so does this come stock where it cuts the 4x6 into (2) 2x6s?
Is the photo booth only for IPad or would it be compatible with Samsung tablet?
@@Zortiz2 iPad only
Can you print directly from the iPad without using laptop and wifi ?
How u find those setting on a MacBook !!
Can you link the app for Print Driver, I keep seeing a lot of different apps. I want to make sure I'm downloading the right one.

Is it possible to wire the ipad to the computer so you dont have to rely on the bluetooth transfer?

You can use a router

Super thorough information. Thanks !
is it a different paper for the 2x6 print?
same media, same printer, different template on ipad/software
Think having a laptop, you could use a nuc and let windows auto start the application.
I only have an inkjet 😢 before I buy the photo paper, why should I not use it for printing with luma booth?
Inkjet printer will be more expensive for you, compare to dye sub printer
What printer do you use?
Does the HiTi P525L work the same way with ipads?
Yes

How do you control printing costs with unlimited printing? Do you allow unlimited printing up to a certain number?
Unlimited sessions, but not unloaded prints. We say unlimited prints, but that usually means one 4 x 6 per session or two 2 x 6 strips
thank you so much for responding back and so quickly. I might be a little dense but what do you mean by photo sessions and not unload prints?
