Like its 5.7" sibling, the 7.3" Inky Impression is plug-and-play: panel and driver board are one unit that slots onto the GPIO header. Both the original 7-colour version and the 2025 Spectra 6 edition are supported with native drivers - there's even a driver for the 13.3" 2025 edition.
Setup
- Plug the HAT onto the Pi, flash the SD card, add the frame in the backend.
- Select the matching Pimoroni Inky Impression 7.3" driver (original or 2025 edition).
- Save & deploy. The display blinks through its refresh cycle and shows your scene.
