Label Maker Machine with Tape, Mini Label Printer, Portable Thermal Printer Compatible with iOS & Android, Sticker Maker for School, Home, Office, Photos, Notes

It works, but more a toy than an office tool
I really wanted to like this item, but there are a few pros and cons to consider when purchasing this label printer.PROS:1) Relatively cheap compared to other “cube” type thermal label printers2) Comes with several rolls of labels to try outCONS:1) Cheap construction, feels like a toy. No instructions are included, you have to access them in the app.2) Will not work without installing an app. App interface is not intuitive. Although it has a lot of options for changing font, font size, alignment, graphics, it’s clunky when you just want to print a quick “My Doohickey” label.3) The paper rolls are inserted in a janky way, no roller support inside the machine, it’s literally held in place by a flimsy plastic arm.4) There’s no hardware check to make sure the paper is aligned, centered, so that when you print your label it comes out on the right spot on the label.BOTTOM LINE:It works, but feels more like a toy or gimmick than a useful home-office label printer.

Lots of fun and useful, too!
The Laibear multi-functional mini printer is just way too much fun. It’s also very easy to use with the phone app. Photos come out remarkably sharp. Of course, the actual resolution is very low, but printed within such a small area, they look pretty decent. Note that the paper is very thin, so is not carry-around durable, and will wrinkle easily.As a label maker, its best characteristic is its portability. I can’t expect it to replace my popular-brand desk-top label printer that I’ve been using for years, and that’s OK. They are two different kinds of devices. The portability of the Laibear printer will allow me to take it with me to print labels or even tiny black and white pics that I couldn’t do otherwise.The variety of fun functions made possible through the phone app are, well… fun. But some are actually useful. Well yes, of course the ability to make stick-on labels is useful. That is, in fact, what I ordered it for. But a feature I hadn’t understood that it had has proved to be very useful. That’s the OCR function. Using the app, you just select the OCR function and use your phone’s camera to view text that you’d like to turn into hard copy. It does a darn good job, especially considering the price, so saves me time typing text that I can, instead, scan with my phone, convert to text and then just print. It doesn’t always get the text perfect, but it’s close enough, in most cases, for my purposes.I’m giving the Laibear Multi-functional mini printer 4 stars for its amazing technology, and even usefulness, at an affordable price. A great gift for a young person, but you might decide you want one for yourself, too!

Great little thermal printer
