Cons

The setup process is arcane and time consuming. The manual is useless. They need to hire someone who knows how to write a manual and install insgructionsl.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A light version which is very basic and wastes a lot of label material and a more advanced label designer which offers way more function than ill ever use


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Such as cable tags or vertical lables


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This only gets a fair rating for several reasons


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The programming wastes an enormous amount of tape due to its preset start and stop points that won’t allow you to print upto the beginning and end of a strip


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For 1 full size symbol it prints a minimum tape length of almost 3”


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Therefore wasting over 2” every strip you print


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One of the tapes was wound incorrectly at the factory and has creases in it
