Pros & Cons

Pros

It's not particularly powerful, but it does the job of printing labels with relatively little fuss. The printing is fast. It prints entire label sheets faster than most other printers simply feed the paper.

This is worth it even if you only use it for one wedding of 200 invited guests. Besides functionality, i love that it's cute, small and turquoise. This little printer is pretty decent for the price point.

Shipping label creator is seamless and absolutely flawless. Font on labels is crisp, doesn't have fuzzy edges or that smudged look.

I have a number of their thermal printers and this one has performed excellently. The only drawback about this thermal printer which i realized in retrospect after ordering it, is that it is not wireless.

My only issue is the description states bluetooth connectivity it does not have that capability. As long as it keeps working flawlessly, i'm happy to disregard that little inconvenience. The app is a bit difficult to work with at first, but then gets ...  Read More

Quality


It works excellent—easy to use and has great print quality.


Easy to use and good print quality.


On my prior phomemo pm-241-bt printer, i discovered that the barcode quality was poor, forcing me to print barcodes very large ...  Read More


Selecting "auto," "texto e imagen," or "image" resulted in the exact same kind of poor quality output you see in the upper labe...  Read More

Price


This is a great value that saves us so much time and money!


I have no complaints thus far, i do recommend spending the 10 bucks or so on one of those label holders that sits behind the printer.


I do wish that it connected wirelessly, but for this price, i don't mind the usb-only connection.


Decent printer for the price and the job.

Shipping


Then i signed in to my shipper and did a direct print of a label, and it worked perfectly.


I'm incredibly impressed with this thermal shipping label printer.


I ship items from time to time and i realized how much time it takes to print a label on my full size inkjet printer, cut the l...  Read More

Packaging/appearance

Item comes in an unmarked box, so may not be great for gifting.


There were a lot of fiddly bits in the package but overall it's got a pretty small footprint.

Competitiveness


I have another thermal printer from another company, and this phomemo is just as fast, and the print quality seems better.


I also have the 241-bt, which is very similar to this b246d.


And the types of labels available out there are much more diverse than the boring stuff the big-name label makers restrict you to.


They have a lot of models that are very similar in price, features, and model #s, so it's hard to know what the differences are.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I only print 4x6 labels and this printer excels at giving me crisply printed thermal labels


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Thermal printers are way faster at printing multiple copies so they make more sense to use if you own a small business


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Thermal printers also don’t use ink so you can print large batches without much issues


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I didn’t have to choose the paper size when printing directly to it so it might be defaulting to 4x6


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Connection was relatively easy power cord and data cable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The free software is a little glitchy as repeated force closed happened to me a few times during initial setting


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It doesn’t look any different than if i had it done at the store instead


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    They look professionally printed and the test part is i don’t have to keep buying printer ink
