Perfect for personal or office use! Easily print waterproof custom stickers
Using the "NIIMBOT" label printer is incredibly simple. Press and hold the power button on the unit for about 2 seconds to turn it on. Slide the button on the top of the unit to open the cover, and insert the sticker label so the printing surface faces down. Leave a small edge of the inserted sticker label extending out to facilitate cutting, then close the cover to prepare for printing. The printing speed is a high 30-60 millimeters per second, minimizing wait times for efficient work. The device automatically powers off after 15 minutes of inactivity, conserving energy even if you forget to turn it off or have to step away unexpectedly.
Using the dedicated "NIIMBOT" app (compatible with iOS and Android), you can input free text, adjust font sizes across 27 levels, and even create barcodes and QR codes. Pictograms for laundry symbols, medicine, and logos can also be printed with ease. The printing method is thermal, the same as receipts, achieving a high resolution of 203dpi (203 dots per inch). This ensures clear and crisp printing, making it applicable in various scenarios such as organizing storage at work or home, or creating POP displays for shops and restaurants. You can even print photos taken with your smartphone. A bonus is that they peel off without leaving residue.
The sticker labels are waterproof, making them suitable for use on items in the kitchen, bathroom accessories, children's lunch boxes, and swimming gear – anything that might get wet. One roll of white labels (12x40mm, 160 labels) is included. Additional rolls can be purchased separately on e-commerce sites.
It's a compact, handheld device weighing just 208 grams, making it ultra-lightweight. You can carry it without feeling its weight, whether holding it or storing it in a pocket or bag. It comes with a silicone strap and is available in three colors: pink, mint blue, and white. It's rechargeable via Micro USB, and a full charge of its built-in 1200mAh lithium battery provides power for printing up to approximately 10 rolls of labels.
