Title.
I’m shopping on Amazon, I have been looking at their promoted ”Rollo Wireless thermal printer” I can’t afford a PC/Laptop right now just for printing and would like to stick with my phone.
So wireless is preferred, ideally I just want it to show up as a printer and not have to use an APP to connect to it.
Who here has what and how much do you love/hate your label/shipping printer?
UPDATE
I went with a Brother QL1110NWB, its wireless and works with air drop or Bluetooth, can print 4x6 and use smaller custom sized labels and it can also be used with batteries.
I have a Brother laser printer and it’s done solid work and hasn’t broke on me yet so I’m gonna try another one of their products.
If anyone is interested I can post an update in a couple weeks once I let my inventory go live again and start using it.
Another reason I went with the brother over many of the other brands is that I have seen people complaining that their printers DPI needs to be at least 3 or USPS and UPS were having trouble scanning their labels.
The rollo was like 200 DPI while the Brother was 300 and I can’t really afford to not use it if the labels don’t scan so I bit the bullet for a more expensive one.

If you've decided it's time to get a printer specifically for shipping labels, this guide, which outlines the key factors to consider and discusses the best 4-inch shipping label printers that we've tested, should help you find the right choice. However, if the only shipping labels you need are 3 by 6 inches for mailing tubes, or 2 by 4 inches for small packages, you might be better off with a 2- or 3-inch wide printer, and should also take a look at our top choices for the best label makers overall.

Do I Really Need a Thermal Printer for Shipping Labels?
The label printers we've reviewed are designed for consumers, professionals, or small businesses alike, with prices in the $150 to $400 range. The thermal technology these printers use—they don't need ink or toner—is mature enough that there's little change over a span of several years. We reviewed one of the models included here in 2020, and it remains our Editors' Choice pick. We like that much of what's available on the market is a collection of proven, solid performers, and even the newer models are based on an equally well-proven technology.
Since shipping label printers are a subset of label printers, you can learn even more about the wider breadth of these printers in our Best Label Makers guide.

This guide to the best still-current label printers we've tested in recent years, along with our label-printer buying advice, should go a long way toward helping you make a good buying decision. Keep in mind, however, that general-use printers can also print sheets of paper labels, and are a viable alternative for that task, particularly if you need to print a stack of address labels for a mass mailing.
