Remember those handheld plastic labelmakers we all had as kids? You'd spin the wheel around and then clamp down when you got to the right letter (and you had to clamp hard to make a mark on that heavy-duty plastic strip). After you got your name out or made a message such as "This is mine keep your hands off," you'd discover you spelled "keep" as "kep" and had to start over. Plus, the tape would invariably buckle and fall off wherever you stuck it.

Now labelmakers have joined the information age. The LetraTag 2000 labelmaker is akin to a handheld word processor, and boy, is it fun to use. There are so many cool little features that you really do need to read the instructions to take full advantage of it. To get started, you just flip up the top of the labelmaker and insert the cartridge. This model comes with 13 feet of standard white tape, but you can purchase extra paper, plastic, or metallic labels in seven different colors. The LetraTag requires six AA batteries, which are not included. Once those are in, you can press the red power button and get started.

The LetraTag defaults to normal text and lowercase letters, but with a little inputting you can create capitals, bold, big bold, italic, outlined, shadowed, or vertical text. It also has a box/underline feature that will surround your text with underlines or rounded, shaded, toothed, or pointed boxes, plus our favorite, the crocodile box (the croc grins at you!). If your labeling area is tight, you can use the two-line feature to double up the text so it prints two lines instead of one. It also provides a host of international letters and accent marks in addition to a range of symbols including a telephone, smiley face, heart, and cat.

As you input your label, what you've typed scrolls across the LCD screen (up to 72 characters). To go back and change your message, just use the arrow keys. When you're ready to print, you can press "shift-print preview" to see your label. Once the label is printed, just press the scissors key and the label will pop off. Handily, the last label made will automatically be retained in memory in case you turn the LetraTag off by accident.

Great for the home or office, kids or adults, the LetraTag is handy and easy to use, and comes in a funky translucent purple color. --Dana Van Nest

3.0 out of 5 stars Before you order this!, October 15, 2000
By A Customer
Make sure you include at least one label tape casette with your order! I wrongly assumed that it would come with one and now have to pay for shipping again to get the tape. Also, be sure you have 6 batteries.

3.0 out of 5 stars Newer Not Necessarily Better, October 10, 2000

"starfleet-5" (Clarks Summit, Pa United States) - See all my reviews
I have had the electronic Dymo Letratag Label Maker for several months but I find myself still reaching for my old manual type Dymo label makers.

While the Letratag does have a lot of features and offers a much broader character and symbol set, in a variety of different fonts and styles, I find this to be overkill when I just want to make a quick label.

Furthermore, the cost of the Letratag labels is exorbitant compared to the old type Dymo plastic labels. I can buy 3-4 rolls of the old type Dymo plastic labels, with a lot more footage, for the same price as one roll of Letratag. I also find that printing only in black is a limitation. There are times when the white lettering (as found in the old type labels) is more suitable in certain lighting conditions. Currently, the Letratag label is limited to a �" width, whereas, the older type Dymo plastic labels come in 3/8" and �" widths. The � inch is especially handy when labeling small part draws or the side of a plastic CD... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Not your old DYMO, February 7, 2000
By 
WOW We are impressed. I bought this before Christmas to help my daughter (9 years old) improve her organizational skills and now the entire family uses it. My husband and I each take it to work and the kids use it for numerous school-related things. My husband's employer and mine have each made purchases of this item since seeing how wonderful it is and easy to use. We may have to buy three more so we can all have our own. Tremendous improvement over the old DYMOs!
