LetSketch Label Maker, Portable Bluetooth Thermal Label Printer Compatible with Android & iOS for Clothing, Retail, Mailing Address, Barcode, with 4 Roll 40 x 30mm Label (Red)

Refused to connect to both my phones even after a few days of trying. Only connected to my PC once, and disconnected, and never could reconnect again. Couldve been a dead unit, but I didnt have time to care to try again. Another caveat -- the labels are tinier than what you expect. So definitely make sure its the right size for you.

Not sure what I expected but it was not this. I am using it for decoration. I wish it was like a mini type writer

I love the look of this label maker and wanted to love it. It prints everything, but poorly. I had no issue pairing the unit, but printing is clunky. It doesnt seem to do a good job of centering and fitting the space properly even when centered. I was so excited for the photos and maybe I was expecting too much from this printer, but theyre pretty awful and again difficult to center and fill the space. When I say awful no one was able to tell what I even printed. This comes with extra paper, but I swear its because youll use all of the rolls just trying to get one label right. Maybe this is user error, but I tried everything I could and Im usually fairly tech savvy.

I’m excited the label maker is easy to get started and comes with 3 roles of label tape. It’s so useful turning my files from hand written to nice and neat. So many uses : spice and canning jars, craft boxes and in garage to label boxes of nails and screws with name and sizes

UPDATE: This morning I picked up this label printer to print off some inventory labels. Its now bedtime and still no labels because Ive been unable to get the printer to connect with the app. It turns on, the blue light comes on, but no connection. Thinking maybe it needed to be charged before it would connect, I charged it during the day. Still no connection. In fact, the app cant even find a printer to which it can connect. Very disappointing, especially since Ive invested in several rolls of label tape specifically for this machine. Im returning it for a replacement. If that one works any better Ill update again, but based on my experience today Im afraid this printer just doesnt deliver. ORIGINAL: This little label printer is somewhat of a tease. The body forms a sort of typewriter shape, complete with what appears to be a keyboard. The keys of the keyboard dont do anything, especially to help with printing the labels. The top of the printer opens using a knob on the side, popping up the printer lid when you push it forward. In order to print labels or interact with the printer, you must first download and install an app called iLabel from whatever app store you use. This app is mostly intuitive once you get the terminology down, but the written documentation and commands for sales in the USA could benefit from being edited by an English-speaking person with a bit more attention to detail. For example, the single index card sized sheet of instructions ends with an unfinished sentence referencing a non-existent illustration. When I first printed some labels I had a difficult time getting the alignment correct. No matter how I centered everything in the app, the print-out lined up to the left. I only got it to print where I wanted it by lining things up in the app on the right side of the template. It did seem to improve after stopping and starting the app a couple of times, but it still takes some work. The app comes with a fairly extensive library of graphics and symbols you can print on the labels along with text. It also includes several basic workhorse fonts some of which download as you request them. The one thing that I found most disappointing, however, is the print quality. Think an old CRT terminal with its green cursor blinking at the left edge of the black screen versus a modern monitor with millions of color. The printout is similar to a dot-matrix effect which requires adjusting the print quality to the max setting to be sure that everything you see on the screen prints on the label. One of my bar code labels couldnt be read by my bar code scanner, which I believe to be the result of the poor quality printout. All in all, now that Ive experimented with this little printer, I will probably be able to use it for rudimentary labeling. I dont expect that I will use it anywhere that I want an attractive label or anywhere I would place a publicly visible label. At a very basic level it does do what it is designed to do.

I had some trouble getting this to print. Downloaded the software (iLabel) from the Play Store. Opened the app and answered some basic questions. The cell phone or tablets Bluetooth needs to be ON but the pairing and connection is done in the iLabel app. Created a simple test label and tried to print it. It asked me several questions which did not make sense and after a few clicks I ended right back where I started from. Spent 15 minutes trying every combination of answers to the same questions and always ended back at the start. When I initially opened the app I was given the option of setting the location to approximate or precise. I selected approximate. That was the problem. I could not get it to print unless I set the location to precise. Why give me an option when only one of the options will work? The ON/OFF LED light can not be seen unless viewed directly from above. That is a bit frustrating because the LED also indicates if there is a problem with the printer or if the battery is low and needs recharging. There is a retaining clip which keeps the labels against the left side of the printer. Probably due to being tossed around during shipping, the retaining clip was pushed all the way to the right. I pushed it toward the left to keep the labels in the correct place.

I have a galaxy and the app works great. I like it I got this to use on the bullet planner I do. They are very small sticker labels. I can screenshot a picture and add it to the app and it prints out. The sticker size is smaller than I expected but that is not much of an issue for me. I can see people who ship packages or letter use this as a personalized sealing stamp thing. My sister liked it too and shes not much of an arts and crafts person.

PROS: Unlike label printers that print a straight strip, this can do larger graphics. The included artwork was extensive and cute. I could see these being nice to put on a wall calendar. I made a couple of stickers and a dental appointment reminder using the included fonts and graphics as examples. Also, it gives you the option to print black and white images from your phones gallery. CONS: there are only 11 available fonts in the app. Having lost the manual, I had to do some tinkering to figure out how to center the labels. It makes a big difference when trying to print labels with a frame. If you already have the device and cant get the labels to center... the labels have to be as far to the left as they can go. Pull out the roll and push the bulkier side of the roll holder in, so that its snug on the size of roll that you have, this will keep it to the left. Since the roll was preinstalled, I thought it would come set up accordingly, but maybe it shifted before it got to me. Either way, once I squeezed the roll holder so that it was snug against the roll, it was then lined up properly.

i love the retro look of this. easy to set up and put the labels in easy to use, great adhesion and no issues with the printing.

This is a 3 Star Review: How I determine a rating for my reviews ***** (5) Stars = I LOVE this item. This item arrived just as described in the listing. All items were in the package, and it worked as the listing is stated with all working parts and fit the description perfectly. The instructions were on par and I would rate the item A+++ **** (4) Stars = The items arrived almost as described but maybe didnt include an item that doesnt affect the way the items works or its appearance. Its a little off from the website description. Maybe the color is off or not exact or directions arent perfect. *** (3) Stars - The item is not quite what was described and may vary in the color, style, or description of the item which may cause the item to function different than what was described in the listing. It may or may not work as I had intended; parts are missing or directions arent complete. I would likely keep the item but may not re-order in the future. ** (2) Stars - The item is somewhat similar to the item described in the listing however it does not function or act like the items listing and/or major parts are missing or not functioning properly. Instructions may be missing or confusing to the point that makes the item unusable. I would most likely not keep the item or re-order this item in the future. * (1) Star - The item is nothing like the description or is not the item ordered. The item does not function or act like the item that was listed, and I would never re-order the item. This item is a complete waste of my time.
