Itari Thermal Label Printer, 4x6 Shipping Label Printer for Shipping Packages & Small Business, Desktop Label Printer

Bought this to use as a less expensive option to make UPS labels however, using the general UPS.com shipping site, this comparative model the manufacturer says is compatible is out of date and no long supported. Meaning, you can’t direct print from their website to the printer. It’s a little longer process to just generally print but, if you adjust the print settings to “no margins / scale to 100” it prints out fine.

Takes some getting used to if you never used one but this works great for shipping labels when I ship or return something. I use this on my Macbook Pro and it has a driver to download. Good quality printout and works great. I would recommend this one.

To install this printer on my Windows computer all I did was search Itari D520 Thermal Label Printer driver and the first result was what I needed. I installed the driver and because my printer was hooked up and the power was turned on (plastic button on back) it was ready to print right away. I tried to use another, more expensive, printer in the exact same way, the main difference was, this printer printed clear labels, while the other printer was very insufficient and the labels were not as good as the labels this one prints. Basically, because the quality of this printers prints is so high, I cant help but give it five stars. This is the one that actually works.

Nice little printer. Works well but couldnt connect it to my phone. Thermal printer, works well and prints quickly. Great for smaller spaces. Directions are simple enough and sets up quickly. Custom services are pretty helpful, responded quickly. Its a good little printer, priced very competitively and on the lower end of similar Thermal printers price wise, but isnt lacking in ease of use, customer service and good quality results. Id highly recommend this.

Needed this label printer to ship products for my buisness and it has been amazing. Super easy to set up and use. Came with everything you need to do the job and even included a roll of labels. I love that it holds the roll of labels to save space. So far Ive printed a couple of labels and the print came out clear and dark. There is a variety of templates you can choose as well. I was able to figure out how everything works pretty quickly. Ive had no issues with it and enjoy using it. Im so happy I can print all my labels at home now, makes it so much easier and saves me time. Overall very satisfied with it.

Wish I had read more, I didnt realize this wasnt Bluetooth, my fault. (Ive only ever gotten standard printers, and all the standard printers Ive used had Bluetooth or WiFi so I just assumed, and yeah never assume! The USB included, my Windows PC would make a boop noise, but it just did not show up on my pc no matter the USB port, so went to the official site to download the printer driver for it, Microsoft Defender seemed suspicious of it, but it installed just fine after that. For the software, in the instructions it says its says its called Labelife (dont think it was on the printers website), Microsoft Defender was even more suspicious of the software, but I figured out how to install it and it works well. Great printer fast and does a great job, happy to have a printer specific to labels and get away from the way I was doing labels before, glad it also holds the paper unlike other label printers. If the lid isnt shut properly the labels will print a bit faded, so make sure to double check its shut off all the way! \### Update ###/// I pushed the power button off to save electricity, and ended up having an issue with the machine printing incorrectly for a bit. Upon turning the machine back on it spits out a label, so I go to open the machine roll it back up, align it on the roller, and it spits the label all the way out again! I gave up and just let it waste that label and went to print what I needed to print, and it prints that label......half on the label the printer insisted shouldnt be used and half on the one that it was suppose to print on. I ended up messing with it several times, until I found out the right distance it had to be out before shutting the machine before it would print in line correctly again. I ended up wasting 5 labels thanks to a few things I was trying. Now that its aligned again, it works just fine and how I need it to, I now know never push the power button off unless absolutely necessary!

The label printer is very easy to set up. Includes a USB flash drive with drivers for Windows, Mac, and Linux. It also includes free label software if you need it. Some nice features: - USB compatible - Top button form feed - Easy to install paper roll - Uses standard 4 x 6 thermal roll shipping labels I purchased the printer because it said it was compatible with Shipstation which I use as my main shipping software. I have used the Dymo 4XL previously and this unit is more sturdy and if a label jams, seems like it will be much easier to clear as it is straight through versus the Dymo that goes between rollers and I have had issues with. Would recommend.

***Update #2 - After a year of owning this printer and using it a few times a week, the print is coming out super light - almost unreadable. I have cleaned the printer head, adjusted settings etc. But no joy. For that reason I am changing my rating to 3 stars. ***Update - I figured out how to make a label without making a PDF. It works great. Though, I know this printer accepts a variety of labels, I do wish I knew what brand labels they included with the unit as they work perfectly. Now that I have worked with it awhile, I realize that every time I turn it on it pushes out a blank label. I am not sure why it does that. But I use the blanks to cover addresses etc. old boxes I reuse for shipping.*** Every time I buy replacement ink for my regular printer it seems to get more expensive. So I decided to pick up this thermal printer to use for labels I make for packages I ship. I picked this one from many because I really like how compact it is yet it holds a roll of labels inside - no fussing with a separate label holder. To my surprise, the directions are very good. I was able to set it up with my MAC quickly. My first round I had some trouble printing so I shut everything down and restarted and that fixed it. For USPS labels, I had to download a PDF of the label, then crop it and then run it. Once I got the hang of it - it was pretty easy. I am super pleased with this and feel it will save me a lot of money. It comes with a roll of blank labels so tha was nice too!

If you like wasting shipping labels this is the printer for you. Any time you print a label it prints and then will give an error. Lift the lid and close it error goes away and it will reprint your label just fine. Ive cleaned it thinking it could be a dirty sensor, no luck. Just get a Dymo.

I picked this up to replace my older shipping label printer and I couldnt be happier with this new one. It prints perfect and was set up in under 5 minutes and I was back to work again. I highly recommend this printer.
