PocketBook makes custom sleep screens a normal setting — no developer menu. Copy an image into the “system/logo” folder, then choose it under Personalize. The InkPad Color 3 shows the sleep image in colour, so a favourite cover or photo works well; just expect the muted Kaleido rendering rather than screen-accurate colour.

  1. Decide between a book cover and your own images

    Under Settings, then "Personalize", the InkPad Color 3 can show the cover of the book you are reading — in colour — on the sleep screen. This guide is for the other option: showing your own fixed images.

  2. Prepare your images

    The screen is 1404 by 1872 pixels. Portrait images at that size look best. Colour images work, but remember the Kaleido screen shows them muted — a slightly punchy source image looks more natural on the panel.

  3. Connect the device and add the images

    Connect over USB and open the drive. In the "system" folder there is a "logo" folder (create it if missing). Copy the image you want for the sleep screen there, and note its file name.

  4. Point the sleep screen at your image

    Open Settings, then "Personalize", then "Logo" (or "Standby screen"). Choose "Select image" and pick the file you copied. There is a matching "Power-off Logo" setting for the screen shown when the device is fully off.

  5. Test it

    Press the power button once to sleep the device and confirm your image appears. Power off completely to check the power-off screen.

  6. To go back to the default

    In the same Personalize menu, set the Logo and Power-off Logo back to "Standard" or "Book cover". The built-in artwork returns.
