LABELWORKS Epson LW-PX300VP Industrial Label Maker Complete Kit - with Accessories, Sticker Labels, Magnetic Tape Compatible, Only Uses 203 & 205 Shrink Tube Tapes, Portable Handheld Printer

So if full disclosure, I have not used it much (yet). But I did receive it, try it and play with it. I got the one with the carry case and its very nice and sturdy, and holds everything including the instructions in one place (it has batteries but I also got the AC/DC power supply and AC cord). The printer itself was easy to load and use, contrary to some reports I read (dont know what they are complaining about). It also appears to not pad the print with a huge leader and lagger like other printers do (although it still has some). The printer has a rubber "boot" around it and I found this feels nice and gives you a firm hold on the printer and it also helps prevent it sliding on the table. The print was big and high quality on the trial labels I printed. The key reason I go this one is because it will print Heat Shrink Tubing! As an electronics lab rat this will make project SOOO much nicer with wires labeled ready to go. I have not bough any think tube yet, but that is on my list next. So this is just initial impressions, but I'm very happy with it thus far, and if you dont see a follow up complaining about issues, its likely that any issues I encountered were not significant (that is not a promise that I will update this review if I find problems, but if the problems are significant and piss me off enough I will update this most likely). So at this time, I find this highly recommended seemingly avoiding the pitfalls of there systems I read about, and so far meeting all my expectations! Lets hope that continues!

Completely blown away with this printer. It has been a great addition and has been phenomenal in performance. For the price, you just can't beat it. I've used the heat shrink tube on a sizeable project and am so glad I git this printer. Heat shrink tubing is excellent. A fantastic buy!!

Good kit

Pros: A case to hold and protect the product. The option to use batteries or the supplied charger. Got this guy on sale which is fantastic! You’ll never get bored with its many features. It’s a label maker that can print barcode's and print on sink wrapping. My label maker came with a hard case for storage, a sleeve to protect it and make it easier to hold the label maker a charger and a roll of tape and a lifetime warranty! How many other label makers offer this type of warranty? I compared this label maker to other top brands and the cost to own them was far more expensive and over time. Their customer service department is great and will answer the phone! Cons - This is an industrial label maker and holds 6 batteries which can make it heavy to hold and is an older model and not a con. It could benefit from a brighter screen. The print for the instructions are small and with one call to customer service I received larger print instructions which I printed out and put into a binder. Ok, the print stuff is not a con. In closing, this label maker is a five star printer offering endless options. This label maker will save you money because of its warranty and that the tape is made by other manufacturers who offer tape bundles that work with this printer. This is one of first products I can truly say Amazon offered a great deal in pricing and offering a printer that is a great product. Buy this one you can’t go wrong! As you can tell I made a good decision and will not easily get bored using this product! Printing is fun again! Bravo Amazon, Bravo Epson!

I own more than a dozen label makers. I can tell a great one from a good one, and a good one from a bad one. The LW-PX300VP kit is a pretty good value at around $90. The rubber sleeve adds some extra grip and is a great addition to the kit. However, it has to be removed to swap cartridges or batteries, so if you do that a lot it might be a task. The mix of labels is far and above that what you would get with comparable label makers. In addition to regular type labels with a huge choice of colors, you can print on magnetic tape, heat shrink tube, and even ribbon. Max label size is 3/4" which is also larger than comparable label printers. About the only thing it doesn't do is QR codes. It literally has almost all of the advanced features of Epson's more advanced industrial label makers. On the downside........It prints kind of slow. On the upside the label waste is only around 10mm on either side of your printed label. Some label makers have up to an inch of waste on either end. If you want a label maker for home, that can perform a few extra tricks then the LW-PX300 is a great choice.

This thing is awesome, works great for labels, heat shrink tubing, and much more, ultra quiet!

I have used the label maker a few times. It has many functions and buttons for different functions. It needs an "Easy" button to just quickly make a label. It does allow for longer tape if text is too long or font is too large and you dont want to take the time to adjust every little thing. The two labels I made came out with good print quality I purchased the whole kit which included the case, power cord, label tape and drop guard rubber sleeve. For the extra money, I was kind of disappointed that the case did not hold the power cord in place in the case like it does with the labelmaker printer. Therfore the power cords jossles around in the case and makes noise. I like the rubberized drop guard sleeve, as it gives my small hands a good grip on this larger sized label printer. However, after one use there is a lot of lint, fuzz, and hair stuck to it. And I sat at my dining room table while using it. I fear that this rubber sleeve will either continue attracting fuzzies to the sleeve or that in the future, this sleeve will become too sticky to use. I will update the product review in the future.

I like that it prints on multiple types of media label tape, ribbon, & shrink tubing. It makes it very handy crafting and keeping my art supplies organized. It did take quite a while to figure out how to set it up and to use it properly. The instructions are a little vague. I had to go online and find instruction videos on quite a few things.

So convenient to use. Lots of options. Highly recommended.

Works like a charm. No App required, no log in required. Works plugged in or with removable batteries. No connectivity therefore no invasion of privacy; awesome.

Very nice compact portable label maker in a sturdy hard case. Good quality, nice keypad, settings are easy to adjust. Great for use by a mobile heavy duty mechanic.

A+++. Works well. Dont forget to clean the head with alcool and q-tip from time to time.
