The Indigo Disk DLC introduces several features to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, with one of the most useful being the Item Printer, a tool used for converting materials dropped by Pokemon to make new items. It is a scientific gear that provides various resources, such as Poke Balls, Ability Patches, Tera Shards, and more. Like your interaction with Mitch, which unlocks throwing styles, you must do the same to get an Item Printer for your clubroom.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet’s second expansion has so much to offer. Unlike The Teal Mask, the new DLC not only brought back Legendaries and multiple regional variants but also debuted numerous resources and features to improve your playthrough. This article will cover everything you need to know about the Item Printer.

To get the Item Printer in Indigo Disk in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you must donate Blueberry Points to the Science Club. To do so, head to the clubroom, use the PC, choose “Contribute BP,” and send 200 BP to the requester, Jesse.

After making the donation, Jesse will call you on the Rotom Phone. Interact with the club member, and after your conversation, the requester will come to your League Club Room to install the Item Printer.

However, make sure you have the required Indigo Disk's Blueberry Points to contribute to unlocking the feature. If you don’t have BP, you can always open the Notification Menu by pressing the D-button on your controller. It will display the assigned task by the Blueberry Academy, which can be completed to earn extra in-game currency.

To operate the Indigo Disk’s Item Printer, place the materials dropped by Pokemon in the Terarium inside the tool. Interacting with it will display a screen showing the list of all available items you have collected.

Here are the step-by-step instructions for using the Item Printer.

  • Add materials to the device
  • Hit the “Required Materials” bar
  • Keep inputting until you reach 100 percent
  • Use the device
  • Get resources

There is no straightforward way to get what you want from this Indigo Disk tool, as it rewards you in random order. The printer can be upgraded to four different levels, one of which unlocks the Poke Ball Lotto function. The higher the level, the more useful resources can be obtained, but at the cost of Blueberry Points.
