Choose EPUB as the output format. EPUB downloads are free for everyone, and tolino eReaders can read this format. You can also choose to include the story’s images.
You do not need to sign in for public stories. If a story is restricted to members, you can sign in with your imagine.e-fic.com account to download stories that account can already read. WP Downloader does not bypass membership restrictions, paywalls, locked chapters, or age restrictions. It uses your credentials only to fetch the story you request.

- Open the tolino on your computer.
- Find the folder named Books.

The tolino vision 6, shine 4, and epos 3 use MTP for USB transfers. Once your computer detects the reader, open its Books folder and copy the EPUB there.
Do not unplug the cable while the file is copying.
Open the story on your tolino
Once the transfer has finished, disconnect the tolino from your computer. The Imagine: The List story will be available on the eReader as an EPUB.
Open it as you would any other book on your tolino. The story is stored on the reader, so you can read it without returning to Imagine: The List in a web browser.

WP Downloader cannot update an EPUB that is already on your tolino. If the author adds more chapters, paste the story link into WP Downloader again and download a new EPUB.
Connect the reader by USB-C and copy the new file to its Books folder. Wait for the transfer to finish before unplugging the cable.
