I bought this label printer mainly because of the features and the many label printing configurations. It is very well made and has a neat amber-yellow backlight and accepts up to 3/4" tapes. It takes 6 AA batteries or 2 rechargeable. Does not come with any type of hard case or carrying pouch, so care must be taken when transporting it. It also has a 9-VDC power input, but it is of the reverse polarity type; in which the outer part of the plug is the "+" while the inner part is the "-" . Ovberll very good label printer.

I miss some of the functionality from the rhino 5000 to this one. I don't see patch panel functions that print numbers in serial. It's a good upgrade though, and I really like having a lot more sizes to choose from than just S, M and L.

Labeling machines are a personalf thing. What you plan to use it for and what you actually do use ti for does determine what brand and model you buy. There are sooo many models and brands out there. I chose this Brand because I have known Dymo for decades. I chose this model because It is industrial quality Can take a beating. As I use this in the field, I need to be confident it will not die or break apart. It may seem bulky and akward for the size. It is not. The querty layout makes it a dream. I learned how to type. so this makes using this model fast. RE: wasting label space at the beginning and end. It seems all label makers now do this. learn to serial enter your lables (write multiple in sequence. double space between each entry and cut yourself). For special functions. cable wraps, electric panels, etc. just get used to it. all label makers waste tape, and no way to be around it. Another excellent point: Type size are points, as used in typography. It is a standard that can be measured. It is not the stupid. (extra small, small, regular, etc) with type size, I KNOW what size the type will be. I can measure before making a label. It could have more custom images and descriptions..only let's face it we want everything possible. If this is really important then spend the extra $$ and buy a label machine that can download symbols from a computerRead full review

Easy to use, regular batteries or optional rechargeable lithium kit, label cartridge available at Wal Mart. Crisp print, easy to load. Qwerty keyboard. Remove the cartridge when not in use, so the feed roller is not continuously against film and label, It will stick together and jam. Always remove the batteries after use so they don't corrode inside the unit. Nice size, easy to hold.

I have retired from the professional workforce almost ten years ago. I used to weekly make labels for electrical panels, switches and safety equipment. Now out of the workforce I still need from time to time the use of a printer to label home items including electrical equipment, switches, panels, storage containers, even my granddaughter's toys! My original equipment was the Brady 2200, which proved to be really nice but with a high initial cost, and a high cost for printing material. The Dyno Rhino 4200 unit was inexpensive, easy to use and tape materials are very reasonable. The only downside is for battery power use, as there is no warning to power use, so the printer will stop without any warning sometimes in the middle of a operation. So I strongly recommend the use of a power supply! Great product!Read full review
