Review on DYMO RHINO Label Maker 1801611 by Aaron Lewis

The Rhino 4200 is great. I am reloading rifle cartridges and need a 1/2 inch label with at least 3 lines. I bought a 1/2" D1 label cartridge and it prints great. The user interface is very simple and easy to navigate. It's easy to keep labels in memory, and the program remembers size, orientation, and rotation. There is a pretty good user guide online, just google "Rhino 4200 Manual". If you want to change text size, rotation or orientation, you can do it with a click of a button. It also shows the current text size, rotation, alignment, total lines, current line number, and battery level on the display. You add rows by simply pressing Enter on your keyboard. Then there is a scroll bar to the right of the text line. Using the size and position of this scroll bar, you can easily determine the number of rows and the position of the displayed row on the screen. It only shows one line at a time, but the interface is so user-friendly that it doesn't matter. Here are some tips for this label printer: 1) When printing 1/2 inch label, you can print at 32 points. , but there isn't enough space to print lowercase properly (the ends of j, p , q , and y are truncated), so it only prints uppercase even if you typed lowercase. It writes in lowercase and is large enough for a 1/2 inch label. I think 18pt is the perfect place for short, legible captions. You can choose from the following sizes: 50 (only 19mm/0.75in wide), 32, 22, 18, 12, 8 and 6 letters. You can choose "narrow font" but it's much harder to read and not significantly shorter. I think the smaller font is easier to read. 2) When inserting the label cassette, it will ask for the size. I'm using metric units, so I'll enter 12 mm (1/2 inch). If I wanted to print 3 lines I could only print 6pt characters. They were readable but quite small and left margins at the top and bottom. I went into the settings and changed the label width to 19mm, after that I was able to change the font size to 8pt (and 12, but 12 gets cropped at the top and bottom). The font size of 8pt is perfect for 3 lines on 1/2" labels. If you want to print 4 lines on 1/2" labels, just set the label width to 19mm and the font size to 6pt and you can Squeeze in 4 lines. no problem. (I've uploaded pictures of some of the labels.) 3) I wanted cheap, removable labels for my ammo boxes, so I bought 1/2" D1 label cartridges and they print great. Rhino labels are a bit more expensive and more industrial than the guys from Dymo could probably make a few changes to make the device better, like allow three lines of 8 or four lines of 6 dots on a 1/2 inch label, but one day you fool him into the Assuming this is a wider label and everything works fine Considering that this is by far the best label maker in this price range and can do more lines on a 1/2 inch label than what the manual says, give it a go I give it 5 stars The features, interface, and usability are enough to make up for some of its minor flaws.
