We use this little printer, the Dymo LabelWriter 450 Turbo, to print ingredient and name labels for various products, all of which are used in a freezer and go through freeze/thaw cycles. The print quality is great and the off-brand labels I used (Enko) work great on our containers in the freezer.We've printed over 42,000 labels in just six months and it has work perfectly the vast majority of the time. Every so often it jams and it can be a bit of a pain to get fixed, but it only takes a few minutes to get it working again. Also, if you put the labels in the wrong direction then it will 100% jam every time because there isn't a sensor to tell it that they are in incorrectly, so just pay attention as you are installing it. They go in with the sticker facing down, so it is a bit odd initially.We use three different sizes of labels and it takes literally SECONDS to change the label type. It also has a system in place which automatically prevents the labels from printing in the wrong spot. What that means is you will never have to slowly adjust the location of the labels on the spool to get it to print in the correct spot. It prints perfectly center every time.The print quality is great - we can print extremely small font and it is still legible. It is very quick. The small labels we use can print about 2 per second and the largest can take about 1.5 seconds per label due to it having an image (our logo), but prints faster if only text is displayed.The program that comes with it is adequate for printing simple labels and text. It is fairly simple to use and only has a couple of annoying aspects that can be overcome with some patience. For example, if you are typing or copy/pasting in a text box you will have to manually press enter for each line break, otherwise it will continuously write the text on the same line way off the screen.Overall it is a great product. I will probably buy a couple more in case this one breaks, but at the sub $100 price point it is totally worth it, especially considering the volume of labels that have gone through it. Definitely recommended.
