DYMO Letratag 100H Handheld Label Maker

I bought it to print simple labels, nothing fancy. After playing with it for a few minutes, I figured out how to print what I wanted, and it does it well. It took me longer to figure out how to take the backing off of the label than it did to figure out how to print it.

I use this Dymo LetraTag label maker 100H often. In the past, I used the "press to get an image on the plastic tape" kind, but a friend had one of these she let me borrow. This was my first experience with a printer type label maker. It was easy and intuitive to use, except the method I was shown to get the tape off the back was difficult, requiring a knife or thin blade slid between the label and backing. But, wow, what a difference in ease of use and professional appearance. I had to have one of these of my own. When mine came in and I read the instructions, I learned the backing was in two parts, and you squeezed the end slightly to get them to separate. So easy once the trick is known. A few came with the tape totally inside the carrier with no end sticking out, so they didn't work. Instructions online said gently pry the top from the bottom of the carrier, going all the way around, using a thin knife, feed the tape through the opening, then pop the two halves back together. So easy, fixed in seconds with absolutely no damage.
