Advantages: Prints quickly, easy to use, no ink, time saver

Disadvantages: A little expensive to run for some

The Dymo Labelwriter has been available in various models for a long time now. Many grumble at the limited use, plus the fact that you can use only Dymo labels with the device. Well, whilst this is true, you should really look at this device as a great time saving device, rather than money saving.

I picked up a Labelwriter 400 just recently. I had the next model up before, but sold it on for a very good price. Within a week of selling it, I wished I hadn't. Address and shipping labels vary in price and size, but the smaller address labels work out about 3p each. There is no ink or mess to worry about, as this is a thermal printer, so the printer makes the label react and reveal a fairly crisp 300dpi print. It is nice and fast and quiet in use.

So, imagine the scenario, perhaps like me you sell on ebay. I might only sell one thing a day, but on some days I have a dozen auctions ending. Instead of having to sit there writing out addresses, making sure I spell the awkward words correctly... I copy, paste into the Dymo application, then print. Attach the label and I am done. Probably 15 seconds, instead of one minute. So on a typical day that saves me ten minutes, or five hours a month. So in two months, I class this little printer as paid for.

Of course it is cheaper to write your addresses on packages and letters, but if you have loads to do, this is more accurate and a lot quicker.

Summary: Saves me so much time, it is a good buy
