Robust DYMO label writers with USB interface for printing shrink tube: DYMO Rhino 6000 and 5200 (via Bradán Lane on Twitter)

[Wayback/Archive] Bradán Lane on X: “@jpluimers @jilles_com I have a DYMO Rhino 6000. “New” they are pricy but the 6000 and 5200 are often on eBay at really good prices. I have used the USB interface on it for automation and to upload custom graphics.”

This was in a response thread started by [Wayback/Archive] Jilles.com which you will find further below.

First though, a list of Dymo gear:

Not all varieties are listed in all regions. Amazon usually is a big help here, but I limited the above inks to only Dymo related sites.

The Rhino Industrial series not only offer USB, but also a much wider set of symbols. As per the Dymo site:

Rugged, versatile, and packed with time-saving features, the DYMO Rhino 5200 Industrial Label Maker meets key ANSI and TIA/EIA 606-A labeling standards. Access 100+ industry symbols, fractions, and punctuation marks with a few quick keystrokes.

EIA is no more, but this leads to some links on the ANSI/TIA 606-A labeling below.

Many of the Heat Shrink labels are available as aftermarket on Asian sites.

For durability and applicability on materials, see the PDF table in [Wayback/Archive] https://www.labelcity.com/docs/the-right-rhino-label.pdf from [Wayback/Archive] Choosing the right Rhino label for your surface.

[Wayback/Archive] Bradán Lane on X: “@jilles_com I used heat shrink tubing “labels” to make wiring harnesses. “Self documented wiring” 🤩 If you need a lot of the cartridges, I found them on AliExpress. I used the “white on black” labeling for the Pocket Enigma 😉 For anyone looking for the labeler, they often land on eBay.”

    5. [Wayback/Archive] Bradán Lane on X: “@jpluimers @jilles_com The labelers use cartridges. Thankfully, there are 3rd party clones available now which are pretty cheap. You can see a bunch in the photo. You can even read the part numbers 👍🏻”
    6. [Wayback/Archive] Jeroen Wiert Pluimers @wiert@mastodon.social on X: “@bradanlane @jilles_com I tried reading them on mobile. This is the max zoom level there and made me unsure about the part numbers. Will try on a desktop machine later.”

    First image also shows D1 label 40913 which is not available from Dymo itself any more. I think the replacement is 41913:
