Overview

Filing cabinets, supply shelves and equipment rooms suit this DYMO handheld, which types labels on a QWERTY keyboard or prints designs from a computer. A rechargeable pack replaces disposable batteries.

Standalone typing plus computer connection covers both quick tags and designed labels with logos. Label width is limited to narrow tapes, so larger signs need another printer.

Who it's for

Office managers, technicians and home organizers labeling files, bins and tools. Sellers printing shipping labels need a wider label printer.

Performance notes

Print quality depends on the DYMO label cassette and the print head, with speed set by the listed rate. Connecting to a computer unlocks system fonts and graphics beyond the built-in set.
