The Print Step: Filters and Sharing

Last updated October 3, 2026 by 3 min read 86 views

In short

The Print step is where a guest sees their finished photo, picks a colour/filter version, and shares it – by SMS, WhatsApp, Email, or print, depending on what you’ve enabled.

  • Guests see up to 4 finished versions of their photo side by side. Only the boxes you’ve enabled appear.
  • Choose each box’s filter in Admin Panel → Screen Layout → Print Screen.
  • Cancel discards the entire session, not just the print.

What guests see and do

  1. After a short loading animation while the composited images render, guests see up to 4 finished versions of their photo side by side – Colour, Greyscale, Sepia, and Sketch, unless you’ve chosen different filters. Only the boxes you’ve enabled appear.

  2. Tapping one selects it and reveals whichever sharing options you’ve turned on: Print, SMS, WhatsApp, Email, and Done.

  3. SMS and WhatsApp both use the same on-screen numeric keypad for entering a phone number; Email uses the on-screen keyboard, with basic format checking.

If you’ve turned on the sharing disclaimer, it appears before the first share attempt each session, unless the guest has already accepted a Disclaimer step earlier in the workflow.

Admin Panel -> Screen Layout -> Print Screen, showing the filter preview boxes

Which filters are actually applied

Box What it shows
Preview – Colour Always the photo in full colour.
Preview – Filter 1, Preview – Filter 2 and Preview – Filter 3 One filter each, set per-box with its Filter dropdown in Admin Panel → Screen Layout → Print Screen.

Only the guest’s photos are filtered – the background, overlays and text stay exactly as you designed them. Out of the box, only the Colour and Greyscale boxes are enabled.

Premium: Premium filters

The Premium picklist offers Glow, Oil Painting, Sharpen, Beautify, Line Art, Cartoon, Glam, Vintage, Kaleidoscope, Polaroid, Fireworks, and Ghost.

Cancel

Important: Cancel ends the whole session

Cancel only appears before a guest has picked a box, and it doesn’t just cancel the print or a share – it discards the entire session and returns to the idle screen, the same as if the guest had walked away.

Which layout is used

Whichever template you’ve built for the shot type the guest picked at Selection (Single, Multi, or Strip) – there’s no way to offer multiple alternative layouts for the same shot type.

See Building a Print Layout Template for how to design what actually gets composited here.

See The Screen Layout Editor: Positioning On-Screen Elements for how dragging, resizing, and showing/hiding elements works on this screen.
