> 24 hourI really like the internal roll feeding in this printer, I have another label printer which only prints fan fold labels, so it’s not as easy to tuck it away and take it out to quickly print. You do have the option to print fan folder with this as well, so the best of both worlds. I really liked the Labelife software too, it’s easy to use with lots of options, and looks nice. It has built-in templates, or you can create any custom size. The driver was also downloaded from their site. My other printer didn’t have very good software, so I’d ended up using Word templates which wasn’t ideal either. This printer does USB for Mac or PC, or bluetooth for mobile. Even though it wasn’t officially listed, I did try to see if it would connect to my PC via bluetooth. It saw the printer, but didn’t have a driver. The driver only supports USB and Wifi. Would have been nice, but not an issue since was never promised. Overall I’m very happy with this label printer, it’s a big upgrade in every way over my previous printer.

> 24 hourThis portable Bluetooth label printer is fantastic. Its also purple, which is one of my favorite colors. Its very easy to use and doesnt take up much space at all. You could easily take this with you wherever you go. I easily connected via Bluetooth to my LG android phone. The labels print out quickly and clearly. This is an excellent, portable printer!

> 24 hourI got this label printer to print shipping labels for my online Spotify store. Being self-employed, I find that I often need to print my own shipping labels when I send my books out to readers. The label maker saves time and energy and it looks so much nicer than my handwriting. The text comes out clear and easy to read and Im sure Ill use this more and more in the future.

> 24 hourEasy to connect to computer via cable or bluetooth - need to download driver. Can also use via phone thru app. Paper is easy to install - it seems to automatically sense where the paper gap should be once you press the paper forwarder. Feels durable and should be able to handle high output. Good unit for printing labels.

> 24 hourThe official website to get the driver is down so I had to search it up myself. The program and driver are 2 separate downloads (for Windows). Once the drivers are installed it prints fast. Its maybe one second to pop something out and isnt very noisy as it does that. It comes with a few labels in the box ready to print. It can pair to a Windows machine over bluetooth but it wont print, or perhaps I need another driver just for Bluetooth.

> 24 hourThis label printer has a lot of uses. I havent learned them all but kids promise to help me figure them all out. We live in a rural area with bad internet but by hooking it straight to my computer, it seems to be working fine. I like how the print looks very nice and it is easy and quiet when it works. The price is reasonable and I think it is worth the money. I would recommend this to others that need a printer.

> 24 hourThis printer is bigger than your average desktop label printer, roughly the equivalent size of my Zebra ZP 500 Plus FedEx shipping label printer. Its capable of printing 4x6 shipping labels, which is what I plan to use it for. Installation is easy as it is plug-and-play and doesnt need additional drivers. Print quality for the driver states it is 203 x 203 DPI, similar to the Zebra printer. The labels auto-align when you install them, so theres no wasting your labels. Print speed is about as fast as the Zebra printer, and sounds almost identical actually. The labels printed look about identical since they both have the same resolution. It comes with its own power supply which is custom for the printer so dont lose it. They give you a small sample roll of labels of what looks to be 4x6. If you decide to get this printer, you can also use standard 4x6 labels, similar to what Zebra printers use. Theyre super cheap here on Amazon if you search for them. Software Notes: So far, the software seems easy to use with no glitches. Theres a version for Windows and one for Mac. There seems to be only one 4x6 label in their templates section and I was hoping there would be more for inventory, etc. Designing your own labels seem pretty easy, and the interface has a Photoshop-like feel with drag-and-drop placement with dynamic alignment guides, and layers. While these types of printers are made to print shipping labels, you can make your own custom labels using their software or even other software like Word or Adobe Acrobat. While this seems to be a pricey printer, its built to compete with shipping label printers like Zebras and Dymos which start at the $300 range and up. Not a bad deal if you want to start printing your own labels instead of having to wait for the UPS/FedEx folks to sit there and type in your info then print your label.

> 24 hourI needed a label printer for a computer in our office, so I ordered the PhoPRT D520BT. The printer appears well made and looks and feels as solid as my existing printers. The device comes with a small roll of 4x6 labels, a USB-B to USB-A cable, and a USB adapter for a Mac. The roll of labels sits inside the device, but it would be possible to use it as a fanfold or large roll capacity printer by utilizing the feedthrough slot. Initially, I set it up as a Windows printer and it was recognized instantly by Windows 11 and using an app called Label designer, I did a test print. It came out perfectly. Next, I set it up to be a Bluetooth printer. You need to download an app called Labelife to your phone or tablet. Both Android and IOS versions are available. I was using the Android version. Pairing was as straightforward as it should be, and connection went without issue. I printed out a PDF and again, it came out perfectly. One surprise I did have was that even though it was set up with Windows 11 as a USB connection that did not prevent pairing with Bluetooth. It was possible to use either option while the printer was effectively connected to both the PC and cell phone at the same time. Overall, I think this is a great label printer that offers good flexibility so if youre in the market for a thermal label printer I recommend you consider this one.
