Label Makers

[Anthony]

I have been super happy with the M2. Using a combo of Grok and ChatGPT… I was able to create a fun, fake company name, design a label, add the QR code, and any other info. I use this as a base template and add/modify info as needed. I was planning to do the color route, but was more than pleased with the outcome of this instead.

Just received my M2. The only thing is that I would like a higher dpi? Don’t know why, could be my ocd, but I’m having a hard time believing the QR codes will work.
But I guess 300dpi is the new standard?

@Juan-Doe My QR codes work, even on holographic paper, which makes it more challenging to read in general. I found the trick was to use a site like bitly.com to produce a shortened url for the original QR code, which simplifies the QR pattern and makes it easier for the camera to read. It works very well.

I’ve found if I crop my QR to about 1cm they scan while on the bottle. If I leave them large like the peptide critic label template they won’t scan when placed on the bottle.

@Commander do you or anyone pay for niimbot VIP? I get 3 free months with subscription.

[Commander]

I didn’t

Here are some labels I made on the M2…

[Juan Doe]

How do you get two colors?

[Commander]

If you look up a few posts Randy explained how to do it. You basically have to create 2 exact labels, 1 with the red print on it and 1 with the black print on it. Print 1 color, rewind the labels then “print over them” again with the other color. This is on the Nimbot M2.
Nimbot supposedly has a printer that will print 2 colors, I just have to figure out what model it is…

Dude, you're killing me here. That's awesome.

[quicksilver80]

would be funny to do some like hardcore band script labels. text entirely unreadable. because readings for squares or whatever.

Ok, I need that whatever it is…
So what printer is that and where doI get it?

The forum is going to get me divorced

[brandenscheidecker]

wonder if I can cancel my nimbot!

[Randy]

@Commander you dont want to use this for labels its clunky and the sticker medium is overpriced. I do all my layouts in photoshop for it. This was a one time thing for the culture. Past that I'm just using it to make uncle wang stickers.

@brandenscheidecker dont. Niimbot is the goat. The sticker printer is just that. I still dont know how well it will handle freezers (probably not well)
