Let’s face it these are cheaper clones of a certain famous stripey animal, however they appear robust and reliable so far.
Having first tried the S8 and being disappointed with the print quality but otherwise happy with the build and usability of the device, we tried the A300 and it resolved our concerns.
We use Royal Mail Click & Drop and the output is much clearer and readable and gives us confidence that items will arrive at their destination as intended!
Minus a star for no Windows 11 drivers, this shouldn’t be hard and I’d hope the manufacturer will be working on this, however a browse round their largely useless website gives me little confidence!
Hasta el momento todo ha ido bien. Fcil de instalar, funciona correctamente e imprime la medida que necesitaba.
Ich war zuerst wirklich skeptisch, aufgrund des Preises.
Fazit nach einigen Wochen Nutzung:
Produkt ist wirklich hochwertig verarbeitet, kommt mit Adapter auf USB-C und ist super einfach einzurichten!
Dazu ist die Druckqualitt super und eine Labelrolle ist dabei.
Kann ich persnlich nur empfehle
Ottimo prodotto (non altro che una stampante OEM brandizzata dalla startup di turno).
Unica pecca, alcuni codici a barre vengono stampati correttamente solo se aperti con specifici programmi, mentre con altri vengono riprodotti non fedelmente.
Il problema software e non dipende n dal produttore n dal dispositivo, in quanto il driver di terze parti e sviluppato da Seagull.
ach ca 2 Monaten und knapp 100 Etiketten tut sich nichts mehr. Bin richtig enttuscht. Habe mit einen Etikettendrucker gekauft um keine rennerei zu haben, jetzt hab ich Sie doppelt.
I cannot believe until now that i am in business with this new label printer, it is easy to install the driver and easy to use! Just perfect for my small business… I love it!
The printer came really fast and was so easy to set up. Basically just one step. It came in perfect form and prints really fast.
better than rollo and i have both. print quality is far superior. holds roll stock inside and makes cute noises lol very happy

Der Drucker ist fr den Preis sehr gut. Ich habe MacBook Air M1 und der Drucker druckt blitz schnell, Qualitt ist gerade nicht krass gut, aber funktioniert problemlos und das Preis-Leistung-Verhltnis ist sehr sehr gut. Installation auf MacOS M1 funktioniert gut. Ich fands richtig gut, dass ein Adapter USB-A to C mit dabei war. Richtig guter Paketinhalt. Top. Kann es nur weiterempfehlen.
The quality is great but it’s very noisy compared to my other thermal label printe

Does what it says. It saves so much time from printing labels on a printer. Print quality looks good too.

I absolutely love it and I wish I had bought it earlier. Only issue is sometimes when I press orient it does not print and It’ll print the next day :/ yes I have done the whole switch on n off but nothing until I next need to use it. Other than than I wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again I would just like to fix that glitch. Any advice?
Update: it keeps jamming which is very annoying!
* Print quality is more than adequate for shipping labels.
* You don’t NEED to use the bundled software (it’s really not great) and can just use Photoshop or similar to crop labels from Royal Mail (PDF files) then send to the printer.
* It’s really really quick and efficient (no ink).
* It’s half the price of competing products.
The bad news:
* The instructions for loading the paper are really weak (in the booklet) so your first attempt will be a bit of guess work and fiddling. But you’ll sort it out eventually. Booklet needs a lot of work guys, come on.
* The USB 2.0 drive they supplied is made of metal. This means if you ground yourself to say a PC case by accident (touch it with part of your hand) while then touching said USB stick, you’re going to get a surprise. WHY supply a METAL USB stick (really low quality one at that). Please change this to plastic or something in future.
The above negatives aren’t enough to say the printer itself isn’t worth it. It is! it will save you money in the long run. Just be prepared to fiddle with it on your first try and avoid grounding yourself when handling that USB stick (I won’t be using it for anything else).

I would certainly recommend this printer and it is a very
good price.
I Bought this printer for Royal Mail Click and Drop labels.
The Labels that Royal Mail supply, fit in the machine and
run with no problems at all. I have printed over 400 copies
so far and it prints one label at less than a second, the speed
is remarkable. I could not get the Shipping Label Printer Thumb
Drive, supplied with the machine to load on my computer, (Windows 10)
However, It was very easy to download from the Hotlabel website, and
very quick to set up.

Also ich muss sagen, Preis Leistung Verhltnis super, Installation kinderleicht, das kenne ich sonst nicht so. Alles besser als gedacht. Wrde ich jederzeit wieder kaufen. Vorher hatte ich einen Gk420t, dieser ist wesentlich unkomplizierter und hlt jedem Vergleich Stand. Sehr schneller Versand, super Verpackung
You can work around this by going into repair mode in windows to access your advanced settings and turn off driver digital signature enforcement. The driver will then install from the wizard.
After I got it installed it works great.
I will revisit this review after using the printer for a while as I only received it today.
Hot Label, “Sort ya drivers out mate!” and I will give you the extra star.

It is bigger than I thought, it’s easy to set up, and I have a MacBook so I was expecting more difficulty but we managed in the end to add the drivers. The only thing is the adapter cable seems to not always be connecting perfectly so it loses power. But Overall it works well.

Just make sure you have your settings correct for the size of paper you need, or if printing in bulk on ebay, click the paper size you need BEFORE you check out, else you will get 4 on a page even at 4×6 which isnt any good!
very fast printing, just hope it lasts or keeps working like it is at the moment!
massive time saver for me, and cheapest on the marke

Takes a bit of effort to setup you need to follow the instructions precisely but after that it’s quick and easy. I leave mine switched on as the seems to recalibrate after switch on and that wastes paper. Not as dark print as my laser printer but perfectly ok for my postage labels for eBay. Pleased overall although maybe a bit expensive.
Great for having an address labelling printer on your desktop. Give my company a more timely, professional perspective on service animals. The material of the printer is outstanding.

I bought this to replace a failing Zing 300, that wasn’t that old. And who’s customer service was zero. I set this up and printed the test label in a couple of minutes. The set up was simple, via a usb thumb drive, and the print quality out of the box is amazing. It’s bigger than I imagined, but it has an internal spool for the label roll. You can also pass through an external roll or a fan fold pile. Speed isn’t an issue for me, so I’ve slowed it down for even denser and crisper labels. I would love to know where to buy the labels supplied with it, as they are the best 6×4 thermal labels I’ve ever used.

It’s one of those purchases, once you have it, you wonder why you didn’t buy it earlier!

Great printer, higher resolution than most and at a good price
Kurze Version:
Positiv:
– Tolle Verarbeitung/Verpackung
– Einfache und schnelle Installation
– Folgekosten sind unglaublich niedrig
– Gnstiger Preis
– Viele Supportmglichkeiten
Negativ:
– Leider keine Etiketten zum Start dabei, aber das ist nicht so schlimm
Fazit: Empfehlung!
Lange Version:
Ich bin wirklich restlos beeindruckt von diesem Gert!
Lange habe ich Versandetiketten beim Drucker eines Bekannten drucken lassen und sie immer wieder abholen mssen.. Das hat auf Dauer wirklich genervt und was mich leider noch mehr genervt hat war die berlegung einen “normalen” Drucker zu kaufen.
Die sind nicht nur teuer sondern die Folgekosten sind noch viel viel teurer.
Die Folgekosten von diesem Gert belaufen sich auf 5-8 fr 500 Versandetiketten als Rolle. (Der Drucker soll auch Stapel untersttzen, dies konnte ich aber nicht probieren)
Erstmal muss ich die Verpackung loben, wo viele Hersteller sparen wrden passt hier einfach alles, das Gert sitzt super sicher im Paket und die Box ist auch sehr dick. Wahrscheinlich wre dies nicht mal ntig gewesen, aber es wurde Wert auf Qualitt gelegt. Das selbe gilt natrlich auch fr den Drucker selbst! Die Verarbeitung ist wirklich super und alles sitzt fest.
Den Drucker also ausgepackt und eine Rolle mit 500 Etiketten (Leider nicht enthalten, ich habe eine 4″x6″ bzw. 100mmx150mm Rolle direkt mitbestellt) eingelegt.
USB Stick (Treiber und alles was man brauchen knnte ist drauf!) in den PC, Drucker angeschlossen, Treiber installiert und das wars.
Bevor ich den Drucker bekommen habe, habe ich mich ein wenig durch die Supportseiten, welche an und fr sich auch Lob verdient haben, des Herstellers gelesen um Probleme von Anfang an auszuschlieen.
Ich habe also bevor ich den Drucker das erste mal genutzt habe den Drucker ausgeschaltet, den Knopf auf der Oberseite gedrckt gehalten, Drucker wieder angemacht und losgelassen wenn er gepiept hat. Das sorgt dafr, dass sich der Drucker mit dem Etikett kalibriert. Also DHL Etikett im Acrobat Reader geffnet, ein Snapshot erstellt, die Druckeinstellungen auf die Etikettgre eingestellt und fertig ist der Druck! Das Etikett kommt sehr deutlich bedruckt in unter einer Sekunde aus dem Gert geschossen.
Der Hersteller bietet auerdem Support auf quasi jedem Kanal den man sich vorstellen kann.
Kann diesen Drucker also einfach nur empfehlen!
Fast installation with USB memory stick included (there in the folder so many files, instructions etc. like for beginners). Easy to set up and print, some label sizes already in the settings but if you need another size you can create ot in the options. Printing extremely fast and accurate. Didn’t see any issue at all but just happy with purchase.
I purchased this printer to replace a 15 year old Zebra that suddenly stopped working. I own another 4 x 6 Thermal Printer, and when I first opened the A300 box, I was surprised by how solid and heavy this printer feels, especially compared to my other one. Setup was easy, and I actually phoned customer service before I made my purchase, and twice, after receiving it, to assist with some of the printer settings. The Person who answered the phone was very nice, and extremely knowledgeable with the printers settings. Print quality is great, and both the print speed, and contrast of the print, can be adjusted easily in the settings. Since I only print a few labels a day, I have my printer plugged into a smart plug, and I can just ask it to turn on when I need it. I’m 100% satisfied with the print quality, but to be honest, I couldn’t see any difference between 203 and 300 DPI, even when i zoomed in with my camera. If I were printing something other than shipping labels, the extra DPI might make a difference. I lower the print speed to 2, and leave the contrast at 8 or 9, and it’s very clear and dark. At this price, I’m not complaining one bit. I also purchased a 4 year warranty with the printer for $15. It covers power surge for the during the first year, and everything else (except abuse) for the next 3 years. USPS labels through eBay printed perfectly, and a UPS label was cut off a couple MM at the very top. When I spoke to support, I found out that the sample labels they ship with the printer are just a hair shy of a normal 4 x 6 label size, and sure enough, when I changed out the labels, they all printed perfectly. Of course you can still use them for eBay or other platforms. Good to know, since I originally thought that something might be wrong with the printer. Although I can’t speak of the longevity of this printer, I can definitely say that it feels solid and well built, and prints beautiful, clear, dark, shipping labels. The customer service was outstanding, and I appreciate that they responded so quickly to my questions.
