DYMO RHINO 4200 KIT

Excellent label makers. I use one at work and it has never let me down. I decided to buy one for the house. It was open box and has zero issues. Unbeatable price because of that.

Works great. Love that it can even print wire labels with the correct labels installed. Learned the hard way wait for the "printing" light to go out before cutting the label.

The Rhino 4200 is great. I reload rifle rounds and wanted a 1/2" label with at least 3 lines. I bought the 1/2" D1 label cartridge and it prints perfectly. The user interface is very simple and easy to navigate. Saving labels in memory is easy and it remembers the size, justification, and rotation. There is a user manual online that is pretty good, just Google "Rhino 4200 Manual". If you want to change the text size, rotation, or justification it can be done with the touch of a button. It also indicates on the display the current text size, rotation, justification, total number of lines, current line number, and battery level. You add lines by simply pressing enter on the keypad. Then there is a scroll bar to the right of the text line. Based on the size and position of this scroll bar you can easily tell the number of lines and the position of the line displayed on the screen. It only shows one line at a time, but the user interface is so slick that it doesn't matter.Here are some tips for this label maker:1) When printing 1/2" labels it will allow you to print in 32pt point, but there is not enough room to allow lowercase letters to print properly (the tails of j, p , q, and y get cut off) so it prints in uppercase only, even if you have typed lowercase letters. If you print in 22pt it does lowercase and is plenty large for a 1/2" label. I think 18pt is the sweet spot for short readable labels. The sizes it lets you choose are 50 (19mm/0.75" width only), 32, 22, 18, 12, 8 and 6 pt letters. You can choose a "narrow type", but it is much harder to read and is not significantly shorter. I think a smaller font is easier to read.2) When the label cartridge is inserted it asks what size it is. I am using metric units so I put 12mm (1/2"). When I went to print 3 lines it would only allow me to print 6pt characters. They were legible, but were quite small and left a margin on the top an bottom. I went into the settings and changed the label width to 19mm, then it allowed me to change the font size to 8pt (and 12, but 12 gets cut off top and bottom). The 8pt font size is perfect for 3 lines on 1/2" labels. If you want to print 4 lines on a 1/2 label, just set the label width to 19mm and the font size to 6pt and you can squeeze in 4 lines without a problem. (I have uploaded a picture of a few labels.)3) I wanted cheap removable labels for my ammo boxes so I bought the 1/2" D1 label cartridges and they print perfectly. The Rhino labels are bit more expensive and more industrial than I need.The guys at Dymo probably could have made a few tweaks to make the unit better, like allowing three 8pt lines or four 6pt lines on a 1/2" label, but once you trick it into thinking it has a wider label everything works fine. Considering that this is by far the best label maker in this price range, and it can do more lines on a 1/2" label than the user manual claims, I'm giving it 5 stars. The features, user interface, and ease of use are enough to make up for some of it's minor shortcomings.

Works as advertized. Improvements are needed: add an apostrophe; increase visibility of indicators on the screen (e.g., font size); allow styles (e.g., underline) per word vice entire label; connection to a computer via cable or bluetooth; less extra length of label before and after printing would reduce using extra label material; LCD screen is old tech. Instruction manual has great graphics, but doesn’t always convey the instructions.Good things: included battery pack comes partly charged; provision for two types of batteries; unit operation is quite intuitive out of the box; unit feels solidly built. In fact, somehow a clip got bent, and the cartridge door wouldn't fully close. I rebent the plastic clip and everything was fine.

If anyone is not clear on what ships with the Rhino 4200 (NOT the kit package), this review is for you.- It ships with:-- The 4200 label maker itself-- One 1/2 in x 18 ft label cartridge-- Quick start guide- It does NOT ship with:-- Batteries-- User manualUnless you purchase the kit, it does not come with a rechargable battery and charger! The quick start quide will show you how to insert the batteries and label cartridge and not much more. There is a good manual, but you have to get a pdf copy online.My 4200 arrived today and I'm happy with it. It does what I need it to do and works fine.

Just a quick little review. I bought this same kit (Dymo Rhino 4200) in 2017. I've run quite a bit of footage through it of various types and brands of labels. The rechargeable battery that came with it is still in good shape. It still works a looks like new. I've always kept it in the case it came with. I probably had to recharge the battery less that 10 times over the years. I'm not a daily user
