        Just getting started. So far, so good.

        The inks arrived; they work nice. It was an easy process.

        It prints pretty well and is easy to use, the white ink is honestly not very visible and the black ink is more grey. I wish it was more pigmented but otherwise it's good

        Great product and service

        Its good once you get it going

        Feels very cheap. Main reason i purchased it was for the white ink which does not print clearly or the full word. Also took 3 weeks to arrive (just over 14 business days). Would avoid

        This printer is a handy little sucker. It does a lot more than I’ve messed with so far.

        Do not try to operate this device or go pushing buttons until you read the book and watch the QR code video so you don’t change something and not know how to get back.

        I’ll save you a bad review rant because you still didn’t read the book.

        To avoid a bad time take the ink cartridge out once yur done using it and it won’t dry out and clog yur nozzle

        I tried to print on several different surfaces I did vids too but got lazy and don’t want to upload that much

        Tough to learn.
        But once you print a few times, it's very easy.

        Absolutely amazing tool! The support team is fantastic too — they helped me with all my questions and responded very quickly. They handled my other case efficiently, and I’m very happy with the quality and service. I can recommend this to anyone!

        The printing experience is top-level: very easy to use with a user-friendly interface, plus the option to download over 90,000 fonts to customize any design you want to achieve. 10/10 ❤️

        I’m really happy with this manual printer! Super easy to use, compact, and gives clean, consistent results. Great quality and totally worth it!

        Overall, our experience with Print Peak has been positive. The cartridges and printer have worked well with our application of labeling batch coding on unit boxes. We contacted Print Peak customer service on expediting our orders due to an urgent need to have the printers and cartridges available for our production start up. For the most part they were very helpful. There was a bit of confusion on the stock that was available within the US to allow for more rapid shipping and it took a couple of calls to sort things out. But even with this, we have been very pleased with the printers and cartridges and will continue to use them in our manufacturing process

        The 1/2” white print cartridge purchased with this kit does not work. The black worked just fine. Can I get a replacement cartridge? Please advise!!!

        Very handy device to have in the office. Its like how mothers keep a box of baking soda in the house as a ‘must have’ in the kitchen!

        USA won't get my Australian Saying!! Best thing since sliced bread!! FANTSTIC!!

        Arrived on Time, Great Product for Small Business!!!

        I purchased an extra print cartridge to go with my printer and found out the one of the cartridges didn't work. Cartridges are expensive and double expensive when one doesn't work.

        good case to protect the printer when moving from location to location

        Slow delivery by the time I received it did not need it. Well maybe next time.

        superb machine, had my doubts before it arrived, but it actually is as good as the videos show. I am delighted with it.

        could be slightly bigger to lalow for plug adaptor and spare ink cartridges. But it is a handy and smart looking case
