Niimbot D11 label maker

Let's talk about a tool makes my job easier – in this case the Niimbot D11 label maker. I’ve been using this rechargeable Bluetooth connected little thermal beast since December 18th according to my order history. As I’ve been sitting at work today printing up a whole bunch of labels for round two of the vacuum wars (starting tomorrow unless the new one doesn't map out tonight,) thought I’d finally review this tiny tool.

TL;DR – it's great, you don't need to buy it (I mean who needs a label maker but me?) but this is a love letter to a tool that's made my job a lot easier.

Over the past nine months I’ve had one misprint that I recall which was corrected on the second and probably my fault, and generally have not thought much about maintaining this little device because it's kept a charge for probably 4+ months at a time.

Specs claim only 2 months of holding a charge. I remember charging it when I got it, and charging it back in April (it was dead.) It's August 16th now. I’ve printed through a roll of thermal labels at this point.

The labels I’ve used have been universally easy to peel off and apply.

Size mostly – the Niimbot d11 label size is tiny coming in at 0.47 x 1.6 inch on average. Exactly what I need for unobtrusive. A little tiny though and might have difficulty scanning QR codes.

Possibly price as you can get ones that look remarkably similar for $3-15 less. I don't know who's the originator of this beast (lot of things called the D11 that look the same now,) Niimbot might be a copy.

Software could use some improvement as for the QR codes you still need to know how the text of the code actually is (see link above about QR code for Wi-Fi.)

The Niimbot D11 app is solidly OK, but needs some improvements. Specifically to the QR code and search for Emoji sections, but for anything else it's pretty good.

I picked up some transparent labels for door frames, and 1280 spare labels as I was expecting a lot of misprints (*cough* Dymo *cough*) but so far other than one, it's been pretty much smooth sailing. Much smoother than I expected.

It's been one of the work tool upgrades that have made my work significantly easier from our old Dymo battery eater (which is great, but man that battery usage and misprint/jamming rate has been high.) Realized today as I was on label 20 or so that I really liked that tool and should tell you you’ll probably like it.

I mean, if you need a Bluetooth app connected label printer for anything.

You can grab a Niimbot D11 label maker from Amazon and earn us 3% commission, or get one directly from Niimbot.

The Niimbot D11 Label maker is a Bluetooth connected app controlled label maker that's light, has a long lasting battery, has a very low cost of operation, and is generally quite pocketable.
