4x6 label printer for mac? - tuqqer - 09-30-2011

Any of you out there using a 4"x6" label printer, like the Zebra 2844 series?

I may buy a new 2844, but I wanted to see if anyone is using something better. Zebra is infamous for crappy drivers (both PC and almost non-existent Mac drivers), but they do work via Parallels.

We use Zebra label printers here at work, but we use a Peninsula Group driver.

Haven't had any issues with any of the printers, I believe we have it running on 10.6.X

Great tip, jesse. do you know the model number of the Zebras you use?


Re: 4x6 label printer for mac? - jesse - 09-30-2011

TLP-3844-Z is the model. I've been really happy with it, it gets daily use (for at least 3 years I think) and is still going strong.

Buzz, that's actually a great option, and I've always had very good results with Dymo printers. We may go that route...
