Overview
A school desk, a home office shelf or a craft room is the place for this handheld labeler, which prints names, dates and chores on narrow colored tape. A full keyboard and a small preview screen let you see text before it prints.
Labeling files, belongings and chore charts becomes quick work with fonts, frames and symbols for personalizing. It is limited to one tape width and one tape family, and the print resolution is modest.
Who it's for
A household or classroom that wants an easy, portable way to label things in colors. The screen previews text and length so tape is not wasted. Offices needing high volume or varied label widths should choose a larger system.
Pros and cons
- Portable battery operation
- Full QWERTY keyboard
- Color tape choices
- Stores frequently used labels
- Takes only one tape family
- Batteries not included
- Modest print resolution
- Narrow label width only
Performance notes
A thermal print head heats the tape to form text, so no ink or toner is used. Label length and type size are set on the device and previewed on the small screen. Print quality is limited by the head resolution, so very small text or fine frames look soft.
