Recommended hardware

One-click Bluetooth printing supports the two printers below — they’re the models we’ve tested end-to-end. Most vendors start with the DETONGER P0: affordable, portable, and great for everyday printing. The iDPRT SP320 is built for high-volume sessions where you’re running hundreds of labels in one go. The scanner pairs with either.

The easiest way to get up and running. Affordable, battery-powered, and plenty fast for everyday printing — great for trial users and most vendors. The labels also peel cleanly off top loaders, which makes re-pricing painless.

High-volume

For power users

Only worth it if you routinely print hundreds of labels in a single sitting. Much faster and cheaper per label at scale, but a bigger upfront investment and tied to a wall outlet. Most vendors don’t need this until their volume justifies it.
