The Complete Guide to Hashtag Printing

What is Hashtag Printing?

Hashtag printing is a technology that allows event guests to print their social media photos instantly by including a specific hashtag in their post. When a guest posts a photo on Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter with the designated event hashtag, Photoboxx detects the post and automatically queues the photo for printing at a nearby kiosk. It's that simple.

How to Plan a Hashtag Printing Event

Start by choosing a unique, memorable hashtag that's easy to spell and relevant to your event. Set up the Photoboxx kiosk in a visible, high-traffic area with clear signage explaining how to participate. Make sure to announce the hashtag at the start of the event and display it prominently on screens, banners, and table cards. The more visible the hashtag, the higher the participation rate.

Maximizing Engagement

The best hashtag printing events combine great signage with enthusiastic staff who can demonstrate the process. Consider adding a Photo Grid Display to showcase photos in real-time, which creates excitement and encourages more guests to participate. You can also run contests for the most creative photo to drive even more engagement. With Photoboxx, you'll typically see 40-60% of event attendees participate in hashtag printing activities.
