DYMO Industrial Label Maker | Rhino 4200 Label Maker Time-saving Hot Keys Prints Fast Durable For Job Sites and Heavy-Duty Labeling Jobs

I was skeptical at first, what with this being on the lower rungs of model ladder, but while I'm sure the more expensive models probably offer better features, they're also more expensive and I'm not sure I'd need them just to label things around the house. First thing I did was to use shrink tubing (bought separately) to label 2 million electrical wires for my car audio build - and I really could not be happier.I haven't played too much with various printing features, customs, modes etc. but what limited time I had with this machine so far, there appear to be sufficient number of options to label just about anything I'd want, in a way I'd want it.My only bit of gripe is that it does waste ~0.5" of tape on either side of the label for padding, there does not appear a way to adjust it.So for me it's a fantastic tool at a reasonable price.

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

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.

This is a great label maker. I have bought 3 1 failed due to Duracell batteries leaking, Duracell bought me the second unit. I bought the 3rd because I forgot to bring mine back home from my other boat. I use it to label wires when wiring items in my boats, using heatshrink tubing.

all ok

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.

I bought the labeler with the normal adhesive tape and wire marker tubes. I haven’t tried the marker tubes yet but as far as the regular labels, it works awesome. The label tape is a little expensive compared to the cheap models at the hardware store, but it is better quality.
