Solid printer for industrial use
If you manage a data centre, or find you are printing feet of labels, this is the printer you want. This is my second Rhino. My first one took a header and wound up in several hundred bite sized pieces - it had lasted almost six years - unheard of in printer life times. This version is hefty and better designed. Access to batteries and tape do not require unwrapping, th...

Very Disappointed
Have had the 5200 label maker for 3 yrs and have only run about 2 cartridges of vinyl labels and 2 of 1/4" heat shrink and the cutter blade has gotten to where it will not cut the heat shrink. I do aircraft avionic installation as a part time side business and only use it for that purpose. Called customer service to ask how to get a replacement blade. I was told it is n...

Runs the Extra Mile
We have owned one for our company for five years now and picked up a second about one year ago, and they keep running. We have printed thousands of labels for our equipment and haven't had any issues. Prints quicker and quieter than other label makers we have had. Would recommend. Labels last well in the harsh Alaskan outdoors.

Use it for heat shrink tubing labels, and it works great, but is a bit pricy
I have used Dymo Rhino labelers for heat shrink labels many times. Works as it should, although it does typically have a bit of wasted label space, minor design flaw. The Dymo labels are quite pricey, but you can save a bit of money by using off-brand labels. Functionally, this is a great unit.

High quality printer
Thing works, but I do a lot of cable labeling on 16/18awg wire, and find myself having to use needle nose pliers to pull my label out! My hands are small too, the problem is, short labels don’t come out long enough for your fingers to grab, very frustrating! Also the vinyl labels are almost impossible to peel! I spend more time trying to remove the backing, and when I d...

WARNING: FORCIBLY ADDS CHECKSUM ON CODE39 BARCODES
Unit is advertised as being optimal for printing barcodes but they neglect to tell you that it forcibly adds a checksum digit onto code39 barcodes. A lovely feature that no other barcode printer forces. The checksum in that format is OPTIONAL and rarely used. Do not buy this product if you intend to print code39 barcodes without the forced checksum. Feel free to look an...

difficult
a steep learning curve, requires focused time, maybe a day or more to get this thing working. I have not been able to set aside a complete day to do noting but work with this. I bought a Lithium ion battery for it, but there us no charger and putting the battery into the lablemaker and plugging the unit into the wall does not charge the battery.

Wonderful tool, but has a problem printing white..
Dymo Rhino 5200. Very high quality case, keys, and very nice navigation through menus for characters. Prints black on a color or on white perfectly. When printing white, however, the output is mottled and in my mind, objectionable-I simply won't use the colored tapes for white text. I did clean the head as instructed in the manual-and the unit did print this way right o...
