Overview

An electrician or maintenance technician who needs labels on the job gets a portable thermal label printer in this kit, with a rechargeable battery, a charger and a hard carry case. It prints continuous labels in a range of materials.

Choose it for wire marking and equipment labels where the printer has to travel in a toolbox. The label width is narrow, only one cartridge is included, and several fields describe copy speed and page capacity that do not apply.

Who it's for

Industrial, manufacturing and electrical settings are the listed uses, with a laptop connection for design. Office users and anyone wanting wider labels or color should look at other printers.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Rechargeable battery and charger
  • Hard carry case
  • Eight label materials
  • Portable and ruggedized
Cons
  • Narrow label width
  • Title says color, specs say black on white
  • Copy and page fields do not apply
  • Only one cartridge included

Performance notes

A thermal print head burns text onto the label material, so no ink is used and the label quality depends on the cartridge. The battery lets the printer run away from an outlet, and the charger accepts the listed voltage range. Printing speed is listed oddly, so judge it from the maker's data.
