Players of {{game|Yellow}}, {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} are able to print the following:

* [[Pokémon Storage System]] Boxes

Both the feature and its settings were removed in the Korean versions of Gold and Silver as the Game Boy Printer was not released in {{pmin|South Korea}}.
 
The background music played while printing is the same in all four games; it consists of the bass line to the music used for the [[Pikachu's Beach]] minigame, albeit slowed down and with an altered intro. It was later rearranged and used as the theme of the [[Pokéwalker]] screens in the [[main menu]] of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

Players may print physical copies of the [[Pokédex entry|Pokédex entries]] of individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} by using the '''PRNT''' option in the Pokédex. These prints are referred to as '''Pokédex stickers''' (Japanese: '''ずかんシール''') in the [[Generation II]] games.


In Western versions, the dimensions of Pokédex stickers (160×192 px) exceed those of the [[Game Boy]]'s screen resolution (160×144 px) because the print combines the two pages of the Pokédex entry. The stickers in the Japanese versions are not printed out with different dimensions because the Pokédex entries only use a single page. In the Japanese Generation II games, the printed font differs from the font used in-game.

The Pokédex stickers display a Pokémon's entry text as a single page, unlike the in-game Pokédex which breaks the entry in two pages for each Pokémon. The Pokédex page numbers ("P.1" and "P.2") found in [[Generation II]] games are not seen on Pokédex stickers either. The stickers have no Pokédex buttons such as "Page", "Area", "Cry", and "Print".

Printable features in Pokémon games

Core series

Players of Pokémon Yellow, Gold, Silver, and Crystal are able to print the following:

The quality of prints is managed in the options. The games use three messages during the process: CHECKING LINK → TRANSMITTING → PRINTING.

Both the feature and its settings were removed in the Korean versions of Gold and Silver as the Game Boy Printer was not released in South Korea.

The background music played while printing is the same in all four games; it consists of the bass line to the music used for the Pikachu's Beach minigame, albeit slowed down and with an altered intro. It was later rearranged and used as the theme of the Pokéwalker screens in the main menu of Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Pokédex stickers

Players may print physical copies of the Pokédex entries of individual Pokémon by using the PRNT option in the Pokédex. These prints are referred to as Pokédex stickers (Japanese: ずかんシール) in the Generation II games.

In Western versions, the dimensions of Pokédex stickers (160×192 px) exceed those of the Game Boy's screen resolution (160×144 px) because the print combines the two pages of the Pokédex entry. The stickers in the Japanese versions are not printed out with different dimensions because the Pokédex entries only use a single page. In the Japanese Generation II games, the printed font differs from the font used in-game.

The Pokédex stickers display a Pokémon's entry text as a single page, unlike the in-game Pokédex which breaks the entry in two pages for each Pokémon. The Pokédex page numbers ("P.1" and "P.2") found in Generation II games are not seen on Pokédex stickers either. The stickers have no Pokédex buttons such as "Page", "Area", "Cry", and "Print".

Pokémon Storage System

The list of Pokémon in a given Box of the Pokémon Storage System can also be printed. Prints of Boxes display the full Box, including empty slots. Nicknames and levels are also listed alongside the Pokémon's species name. Like the Pokémon Storage System itself, the Western versions show a maximum of 20 entries for Pokémon, while the Japanese versions show 30 entries.

Alph Ruins Stamps

In the Generation II games, players may generate so-called Alph Ruins Stamps (Japanese: アルフのいせききねんスタンプ Ruins of Alph Souvenir Stamps) of individual Unown using the PRINT function of the printer at the Ruins of Alph Research Center. The printer may only be used after the player has unlocked every entry of the new Pokédex's Unown Mode. Additionally, the Research Center's printer allows players to print empty stamps by choosing the VACANT option in the interface, which appears between Unown-Z and Unown-A.
