In late 2013 we needed to buy an address label maker to speed up fulfilment in our home based EBay business. We very quickly became overwhelmed with all of the choices and features available. It was at this point we realised that there was more to address label makers than the best looking or cheapest. We needed to find the best address label maker for our situation.
Features -Software compatibility - An essential part of finding the best address label maker is ensuring that the compatible with your system. The first software compatibility check is to ensure that the printer is supported by your operating system (Windows/OSX/Linux).
Quality - As with any electrical product, quality is always going to be a concern. We have found the best way to determine quality online to check reviews and the brand. First of all the reviews will generally show if a product is exceptionally low quality because there will be an abundance of negative feedback. Secondly if you are able to find a big brand then you know they stand by the product. Big companies will usually also provide an extended limited warranty period as well.
Cost - I have intentionally left discussing cost until last because the cost of the printer will change with the features that you require. Cost will play a role in any purchase so it is important that this is part of your criteria. If you have a limited budget then it will become a balancing act of features versus price.
Thermal printing - If you are like me than the last thing you need is to monitor your printers ink levels on top of monitoring you inventory levels. Most quality label printers are thermal printer. Thermal printers do not use ink or toner but instead work by heating the labels.
These kinds of models, just like as the Dymo Label Point 250 and also Brother PT1010, are the best for the single strings of letters. And other models will hook up to the computer and also allow you in creating the larger address labels and also postage stamps.
