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.
Networking support - Will you want to print labels from multiple computers? If so it would be beneficial to find an address label printer with networking support. There are printers available with both wireless and wired networking support so you will also need to decide what types of networking are important to you.
Once you ensure that it is compatible with your computer, it is also important to ensure that the printer is compatible with your office suite. Finally the printer should be compatible with PayPal as this will make it very easy to print address labels straight from their website.
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.
