Been running the Epson LW-PX900 for over a year now. Absolutly love it. I save a bunch on cost of the lables (little waste) and have a lifetime guarantee. I think the biggest drawback for some folks will be that it does not have wireless capablilites. For me, not a big deal, but for others, I can see this being an issue.
I have the same model. I am amazed how good it is. In love with it haha...Design speed functions everything is just what i wanted. PC software is also very good for design of the labels and working with databases.
I have a PT-E500 and the biggest drawback for me is the uploaded templates are unable to be saved if you edit them on the label maker. My question is, on the E550W , if used with the iPhone or android app, can I edit and save uploaded templates from the label maker to my mobile device.
Hi Ben. I’m a little late to the party but I’m facing that now. Just got this label maker to label wires with shrink wrap sleeves and I’m using cartridges so fast because I keep wasting what amounts to the length of a label that is completely blank. I thought I could find a setting to fix that but I didn’t. I have to buy twice as many cartridges, good thing they are not very expensive.
@@doyermo7303 it's so annoying isn't it! If you're doing a batch then you an do them all in a batch and you only waste the bit at the beginning if you're on the right print setting. Nevertheless - the Japanese should be ashamed of themselves!
Very slow? have you used the serialize and database functionality? You can easily plow through hundreds of drops with cable wraps, faceplates, and patch panels. The cost is quite low too.
@@LowVoltageNation We have used database files and serialize for printing labels for the last 20 years for low Voltage work that's nothing new, all over the world. Some handheld printers have a use but they are not cost-effective of 25/50 drops.
I've loved this labeler for years and I was TODAY YEARS OLD when I learned there was an android app. Dude!!! Thanks for the video.
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching

I haven't used the app yet but so far so am furious about the 1 inch of tape that this machine wastes before each print. WTH?!

So Brady M211 printer let's you print from phone app and save it for future for $200. What makes the brother pte550 better?
U can do the same with this one.
Very slow and expensive for anything over 25 jacks.
Options??

@@NCGPUSA Yeah, have to agree, Cable Label USA, that's the way to go for large jobs for sure.
@@NCGPUSA What do you recommend instead? Thanks!
What’s the difference between the orange and yellow version?
I'm actually not familiar with the yellow version... I've used the yellow brady and dymo label printer.
