I have both of them and use them both for different uses because I am lazy. The TD printer I use for shipping labels and the QL I use to print address labels and barcodes and random labels that I need. I honestly could do all of those things on one but I hate switching paper on thermal printers.

Great video. Are these the only two AirPrint label printers on the market? I’m looking for a label printer that can work with iOS. We print most of our labels with Shopify, so just need something that works with that. I was hoping the Zebra ZSB-DP14 would allow that as the price is good and we don’t do crazy volume. Can both Brother printers change between shipping labels and barcode labels quickly like the Zebra ZSB-DP14? Been using Zebra 450 and the Dymo Label Printer for years. But working more and more on iOS, so looking for wireless option, or workaround. Great channel.

Im looking for a thermal printer to use labeling small water sample containers. Preferred label size would be 2.5"x3" ish. The label needs to be able to reliably adhere to plastic bottles that often are damp when applying the label. Also the labeled bottles will be packed in ice. Black and white is fine and resolution is not very important. Printing in the field with bluetooth or wifi would be a must. Battery powered would be amazing. Any opinions?

The labels need to survive 3 days in ice cooler. Once dropped off the laboratory applies their own barcode. When the lab provides partially complete labels I’m almost certain they are the thermal type.

There is less wasted plastic with the printer that dont use holders for each roll of labels. If you dont buy them in bulk and get one roller you use with all rolls of labels.

This machine is great kzitem.infoUgkxw55tQTywUAAOsbrlwxONZULry77sFF1Q and the blue/green color matches the rest of the accents in my office. My favorite part is how small the footprint is. It’s less than 1/4 the size of my regular printer.Set up was fairly easy. Seller will email you a link with video instructions Which I found to be more helpful than the written instructions. I use a Mac and had no issues. They even included an adaptor for USB to USB-c which is great because I’m always losing mine! I had a few issues getting the labels to print properly and wasted quite a few sheets. You need to play around with the settings to get everything adjusted just right. If you have the wrong settings, it’ll crop off the edges or feed through blank labels. These aren’t issues with the machine though, just user error.
