Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Enhanced Brady BMP21 PLUS KIT1 Printer Kit by Jerry Frey

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well, no complaints (just a few suggestions)

I bought this for my house where there are too many computers (and there will be more). I have a 16-port and an 8-port switch and only about half of the ethernet cables were labeled correctly. With this labeler, tracer and a few rings, everything is now clearly labeled on both ends. The 1.2 inch wire marker label type is perfect for CAT 6 and I was able to choose a font that makes the labels easier to read than some of my existing ones. I like that there is no wasted ribbon (short walk from printhead to ribbon exit) and that it has many options for general marking as well as wire marking. You need to hit the keys with confidence, and the QWERTY layout will make typing easier for me. The "Print" button is next to the "Delete" (Back) button, so I accidentally lost a few labels by pressing the wrong button. The labels themselves are great and stay in place but can be easily removed. The supplied manual contains only the obvious information, but this manual is available on Brady's website and contains a full description of all supported label types (e.g. banner portrait, vial, etc.). It seems a bit odd to me that you need to charge the battery off the device (maybe it was an afterthought) but I don't expect to need to charge it very often for my application. In the end it made the dirty job less painful so I would buy again if needed. Now (not today, but soon) I will mark all the HDMI cables on my receiver.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Minor issues
