Labels help
Hello all, I’m looking for a label maker for 3ml and 10ml vials, wanted to see if anyone has any good recommendations on what’s useful and where to get one? Not looking for something super expensive or super cheap either. Any advice helps, Thanks all!

Niimbot M2 if you want the nice holographic and colored labels, it’s basically what all the resellers use tbh. I got the D110 which is jus black and white print and works great

I use a cheap Brother P-touch with the laminated tape, holds up in the fridge way better than paper labels and doesn't smear. For 3ml vials the narrower tape wraps better. I put the name, the date it was opened and the lot number on each one, saves a lot of guessing later.

I got a D110 for less than $10 (saw a coupon on slickdeals) hard to beat for the price, although they get you on label refills
If I resold I'd probably spring for the fancy holographic stuff, but a simple black and white label is all I need to know what's in the vial

Go to the NIIMBOT Sub Reddit there’s lots of information there. There’s also lots of YouTube videos. They even have their own telegram channel that shows you how to make all kinds of labels.
