BradyM210 Portable Label Printer with Rubber Bumpers, Multi-Line Print, 6 to 40 Point Font (Replaces BMP21-PLUS Printer), Yellow/Black, 9.5 in H x 4.5 in W x 2.5 in D

I received my parcel as of June 5, 2025 Thursday Philippines time/date, I am very excited to put labels on my equipment, specially the hefty ones, as a reminder to those who want to steal it that I am the owner, kudos to the local courier I received my item in excellent condition! I recommend buying this label printer, my first label printer to those who are seeking to buy a label printer, Brady the best label printer I ever have!As I unpack it I am trying to figure out how to figure out printing the QR code, its very intuitive just follow the screen instructions and you will get the desired results!

This thing is awesome. I seen someone using one and I just had to have one. This is really aimed at doing labels to mark wiring not a "typical" label maker. It's a little pricey due to that because how many people are going to continuosly update or keep adding cables around, not that many. But if you are ocd or just hate everytime you have to move something around and dont want to figure out what cable is what or which goes to what machine.....its worth it in my book. Very high quality

I love this label printer! It’s so easy to switch from one label color to another and back again. Pretty easy to use, but might take some trial and error when dealing with font sizes. Overall, I’m very happy with it. Also very importantly, the replacement labels are not a steal — but they are reasonably priced.

Very nice product highly recommend for labeling

So on a 45 foot sailboat there is a LOT of wiring all zip tied into big harnesses, and when you track one down, you don't want to have to track it down again. I resolved some time ago to ALWAYS label ANY wire that I disconnect or install, I tried several methods for this, and a simple sticky back laser printed label usually works okay-ish especially if coated with epoxy or similar after being wrapped onto the wire, or encased within clear heat shrink tubing.I ran across this while looking for a better label tape for my Brother label maker. I liked the looks of it and the reviews were pretty good so I pulled the trigger on it. The tape is a little expensive, yeah. Hopefully third parties will come out with cheaper alternatives but the two I have, 3/4" cloth tape and the wire label tape, are well engineered and the cartridges just work, and are easy to change out.Instructions? We don' need no steenking eenstructions! Actually, yeah they would be nice. The little pictoglyphs don't really tell the user much. It falls upon him to experiment and see what does what. For instance the first few labels I tried to print tried to print crossways across the tape instead of longways and I couldn't figure out how to make it happen the way I wanted it to happen. The menu isn't very informative. You just have to try stuff and waste expensive tape. Once you get it puzzled out, pretty simple. And it just works, as they say.I was surprised that it does not come with a wall wart power supply and that it comes with an empty battery compartment that you have to fill with a half dozen AA alkalines or the bespoke lithium battery pack that costs extra and you have to order... somehow. They also say that they have a wall wart you can get for it. It should, in this modern era, come already equipped with one or the other, though I do like that you CAN power it in an emergency with AA cells. So now I have to get a 9v power supply and get the right tip and solder them together and not get the polarity wrong. Hopefully there is at least an idiot diode in there to prevent reverse polarity damage.Also looking forward to yet again tracking down the breakers in my house, and labeling them. The 3/4" tape should be perfect for that. I might even label the wires going to the breakers for good measure.So I really like the machine, just not the failure to include good instructificationalisms and the price of the consumables that currently cannot be outsourced or improvised with any level of practicality. Overall I give it a thumb up and half of another one and I do not regret the purchase.

Excellent product

It does everything I need and never had a problem. I would recommend.

You might say it is only fair . . . or not. But IMO, Brady has screwed themselves by disabling the aftermarket cartridges companies - Guys, I hope it was worth it!They have added firmware for the following limitations:1) Only allow 'genuine', 3-4x as expensive Brady cartridges are allowed by the firmware.2) The printer shows 'empty' when there is still over 1/4 of the reel remaining - does not sense correctly as it records the use of each cartridge then tells you it is empty when it is not - just like a proprietary ink jet cart that's still full when you know it's not. Old cartridges just ran out of tape and it was obvious and you inserted a new one.3) When the cartridge goes over it's 'Use By Date' - the printer shows error - even with a totally full cartridge. I have perfectly good, still in the package carts that are now useless.It's a shame. It is a really durable looking piece of kit, IMO and I love the rechargeable battery and the bluetooth. I wanted to love it!! It really saddens me.I have wasted so much time!!!1) I researched and ordered and learned the printer and goofy app and now have to box up and return.2) Troubleshooting the aftermarket carts - to my dismay. I returned them as well.3) Learning the wonky app - another beef - it is not a well written nor well behaved app. The mac version crashes if you ever accidentally hit 'return' in a text field. I guess it's not allowed but shouldn't crash the app. The app just disappears along with your work. The app does not have really common things like File->open or save - you have to find the hidden menu or icon. No right mouse or control / cmd clicks. Menus and configurations in weird places. Now I will say that I could have easily dealt with these oddities and had developed workarounds for these peculiarities but now all that is just a waste of time 'cause the thing is goin' back to Amazon.Sorry, It looks so solid and rugged. I wanted to love it, but it's just a 'nope'.
