I use this little printer for everything: putting dates on filters when I replace them, marking food that I put in the refrigerator/freezer, labeling charge cords, putting my name/phone number on items in case they are lost, labeling essential oil blends I create, and labeling all my craft boxes. I even used them to label pots in which I put seeds and the date planted. I love that I can buy different types of labels, some with borders and colors, and the printer automatically recognizes the label type. Many years ago I dreamed about having a Bluetooth label maker that was so simple and quick to use via my phone that didn’t require me to individually type into a tiny keyboard and only displayed the output on a tiny little screen. This device answers that need in a very great way. The interface is relatively easy to use and I have plenty of options for fonts and styles as well as alignment. I can even add tiny graphics to the labels. I highly recommend this product. The only criticism I have is that the labels don’t seem durable. When exposed to heat, the writing fades. When that happens I just print another one since they are all saved in my library.

I bought the Nelco 230 printer. I wanted to get my recipes and gardening tips organized. I’m an artist with many mediums to create with. When I was trying to figure out how to best organize my garden and kitchen recipes I decided I wanted something that would make it fun and fairly easy to get down. I didn’t want it to be all handwritten, for that would take much longer than I wanted it to take. I had come across this a couple years ago just an older version. I was impressed by the ability it had to print without ink because I have used ink printers before and had things smudge. I started using this today for the first time. I’m so happy with it I needed to write a review which I have never done before on any product. This is really going to help me create beautiful organized journals on gardening and for my kitchen recipes. I was skeptical at first because it was only In black and white whether I would like it or whether I would desire something in color. But I will use other means to add color. This cuts down on the time and energy I needed for this project and I can already think of others I will use this for.

This is an excellent little portable printer that uses very robust labels. I assumed they would be the cheap direct thermal labels you get with a large desktop zebra printer, but these are glossy and they stick VERY well to just about anything, they're waterproof, and they don't rub off. The app is great as well. Very easy to use and has all the features you'd need for a quick label to be made. I use mine for inventory and it works perfectly. Only thing is I do wish there was a way to delete saved templates. There might be a way to do it, but I cannot figure out how to remove or delete templates. It would also be a nice feature to be able to create files to store your saved templates so I could sort the labels by their usage, like "Part Labels", "Asset Labels" and so on... Just to be a bit more organized in the app. Otherwise, it's great and I highly recommend it.
