Nelko Bluetooth Label Printer: A Fast and Reliable, Professional Thermal Printer

If you're looking to speed up your printing and shipping, it's time to upgrade your printer.

Owning a thermal label printer is a purchase that seems pointless until you have one. You've muddled along with a sticky label or writing on the packaging up until now, so why not continue?

Yet once you start printing off crisp, fresh, custom labels, you'll never go back.

This is why the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer is a great option for anyone that wants to save time and effort when printing labels. It comes with a range of handy features, customizable options, and support for numerous online shopping and shipping platforms, and it's just what you've been looking for.

The Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer is a handy Bluetooth-enabled thermal shipping label printer that will fit nicely on your desk, table, kitchen counter, or otherwise. It's a compact unit, measuring 9 x 5 x 6 inches and weighing just 3.1 lbs, so it can slot into your existing setup without much effort or movement. Furthermore, its all-black design will help it blend in with your other hardware, though a gray model is also available.

It's also very easy to set up. The Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer ships with everything you need, including troubleshooting videos, a USB-C cable, a USB-C adapter for Macs, a set of labels, power adapters, and more. Once it arrives, it should work out of the box with minimal configuration.

You can use the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer to produce labels ranging from 1.57" to 4.1" (40-104mm), which is plenty for most packages. In addition, the 203 DPI printing resolution means the labels are nice and easy to read, which means no more lost packages because of a smudged address sent on a rainy day.

It's fast, too, with the Nelko Bluetooth Label Printer able to print up to 72 labels per minute at a rate of 150mm/s. If you're running a high-capacity business with serious shipping needs, upgrading to a proper Bluetooth thermal printer like the Nelko is a game changer for productivity.

Another boost for your business is the thermal printing process itself. If you've ever refilled printer ink, you'll have balked at the sky-high costs. Switching to the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer removes these refill costs, as all you need is the printing material.

Now, whether you're running a fast-paced shipping business or just want clear labels for your goods, connectivity is important. The Nelko Bluetooth Label Printer supports Android, iOS, Windows, Linux, and macOS, though all with slightly different connection options.

Android and iOS devices can connect to the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer via Bluetooth using the free Shipping Printer Pro app. Once connected, you can send your printing labels to the printer directly. Windows machines can also connect to the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer using Bluetooth, but there is no app for desktop or laptop users.

Linux and macOS users can connect using the supplied USB cable.

Once you're all connected up, printing a label is as simple as sending the PDF label to the Shipping Printer Pro app, making any adjustments you require (such as speed, density, content position, paper size, and so on), hitting the print icon, and waiting for the magic to happen.

However, please note that the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer doesn't generate the shipping label for your shipping company. You'll still need to generate this wherever you're shipping from. What the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer does do is cut down printing time when you have your postage ready, making it easier to ship your products faster.

Yes, one of the handy uses for the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer is that you can print all manner of labels, not just those for shipping. Postage and shipping labels are the primary use for the printer, but if you need to label boxes, produce, storage containers, and so on, the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer will deliver a nice clear label to help you keep track of your belongings.

A single-focus tabletop printing tool like the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer probably isn't something you've considered purchasing. Your old system of printing labels one by one works, so why change the system, right?

But the speed, quality, and ease of use of the Nelko Bluetooth Label Printer make it well worth considering, especially if you're printing a high volume of labels for an online business where speed and efficiency are the keys to success.

Furthermore, the Nelko Bluetooth Thermal Shipping Label Printer is handy if you don't have a computer or laptop available or don't use one for your business. As the printer connects directly to your Android or iOS smartphone, you can cut out the extra device and manage your shipping from your smartphone and the Shipping Printer Pro app, further streamlining your printing process.
