KODAK Soft Camera Case
This is the offical case that Kodak sells for the Printomatic. Although it looks minimal, it features a pocket for holding replacement photo paper and includes a detachable strap so you can wear it over your shoulder. Kodak offers it in three colors: blue, black, and grey.
Compact camera bag
Evecase Shoulder Bag
Alongside your Printomatic, you'll be able to store your wallet, smartphone, and a few small accessories inside this satchel. It has a detachable shoulder strap so you can sling around your shoulders like a purse or camera bag. You can even split the interior space into sections using the included Velcro storage dividers.
Bottom line
Just about any carrying case will protect your Printomatic, but there are other convenience and personal factors to consider when choosing which one to buy. Cases with detachable shoulder straps are super convenient, since they allow you to move about hands free between taking shots. You'll also likely want a case that has a storage area of some kind so you can bring the charging cable and replacement photo paper with you wherever you go.
Of all the Printomatic cases on the market, we especially like the Fintie Protective Case for its protective exterior denim fabric, detachable shoulder strap, and convenient storage. It keeps your instant digital camera safe without taking up a lot of room. If you'd like your case to double as a small purse or bag, consider getting the Evecase Shoulder Bag. It's got a stylish look to it and provides plenty of storage space.
