Label maker for home use (self.recommendations)

6 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm looking for an inexpensive label maker that can print small labels. I need to label various things around my house for my sanity (outlet/breaker mapping, coax endpoint mapping, etc).

I was going to buy a NIIMBOT D110, but then I saw in their FAQ that they put an IC (chip) into their labels and the printer won't print if it can't sense it. I really don't want to support a company that DRMs their consumables, if I can help it.

Can anyone recommend a good, small, inexpensive label maker? Preferably one that doesn't have sketchy DRM embedded.

I see a couple notes in here for Dymo stuff. Please do your due diligence on Dymo. Their more recent label hardware is doing something similar to what you mentioned by forcing the use of their labels and not working if you try to use any other brand.
