Epson LW-PX400 Industrial Label Maker Kit - Complete Kit with Accessories, Shrink Tube and Self-Laminating Wrap Compatible, Portable Wireless Label Printer

Easy set up - prints great labels - would recommend.

I bought this specific brand because of the mobile app capabilities. It is still pricey, but this was the only relatively budgetable device that offered this capability I was looking for. I can connect through my mobile app and use a template custom built from an imported Excel table. I can also print up to 99 labels in one print job using the data imported from that Excel file. I have bad handwriting so this has been extremely valuable to me from both a record keeping and organizing standpoint.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Reviews stated quality was good and very little wasted tape. I found both to be true. This labeler discards about a quarter inch of tape before each label. I’ve had several labelers, and this is the least amount of waste tape I’ve ever seen. Quality is great, tape options are plentiful and customization is fantastic!

The computer software and mobile app user interface could use a major overhaul. The editing tool to make multiple labels is problematic #1. Users can’t add or remove labels while inside the multi label editor. So adding a feature that could add and remove labels within the editor would be a good start. #2. Users can’t import templates or saved labels into the multi label maker editor. #3. Users can’t make labels with varying multi line text sizes and fonts. #4. When making multiple labels text and fonts have to be input individually for each label. There needs to be an option to apply settings to all labels. #5. There isn’t a ruler or way to measure and verify text sizing like with word doc and other such programs. #6. The google drive and drop box import feature only allows importation of image files. I would have liked to import data files made in word doc or excel where I can actually measure out my labels and text. If these app changes were made then I really don’t see any other issues for myself. Connectivity and pairing is a bit dicey but once connected it works effortlessly. I love that this label maker uses AC power and not a lithium ion battery. This label maker was rebranded from the previous lw-600p and renamed lw-px400 and given a new paint coat and a rubber case with a markup of $69.00 making it go from $100 to $169.00 on epsons website. I really don’t feel like the rubber case justifies the price increase especially when the mobile app still needs a lot of work. I also appreciate the 0.39 margin waste vs the 1” waste of brother label makers. If the app issues are addressed this really would be worth the price. They also dropped the ribbon and iron on labels for the PX tape cartridges 💔

A clear winner compared to my last label printers DYMO 450 Duo. Epson software and ease of use is far superior than anything DYMO has for their products.

It's been great. I've been using their new "label editor" and "mobile label editor" apps. The PC app is good but I have a problem with vertical alignments. The mobile app doesn't have that problem. I love that this take batteries or AC power. It's portable and connects quickly via Bluetooth.

I think it does a great job for what I need it for. I am currently using gold on clear and it comes out amazing.

My first print failed because the labels provided jammed, and the black print tape filament was hanging out of the cartridge. I ordered 1/4" heat shrink wire labels and the printer won't recognize them. I tried two different ones with the same part number 208B20BWPX and the printer wouldn't recognize them. I tried the refresh button in the app and I tried manually entering the heat shrink label size but I get a warning that it's the wrong size tape when printing. I used both ios apps and the pc app over usb with the same results. I'd say buyer beware until epson sorts this out. I've contacted Epson online using their web form and now by email. I will update this review once this is resolved. Right now the only upside for me is the lifetime warranty, because using another popular brand that keeps failing, I was hoping to avoid their $200 repair fee by switching all of our company labelers over to Epson. It's not looking good though.

Super easy to use and the app is also easy to use with lots of function worth spending the extra in this over a basic one

Works great. Used with PC and phone. both work wonderful. both are MUCH more useful than labelers with built in keyboards and screens.
