[Need help] Building a label maker cheat sheet, which models am I missing?

I have the Brother PT-D220 and the most annoying part of using it is making anything custom. I have to scroll through a bunch of symbols and frames by hand, and half of the times I just give up and print a basic label.

I got tired of opening the manual PDF every time so I started dumping the manuals into one searchable offline webapp. I manually extracted each and every Fonts, symbols, frames, templates, shortcuts from the manuals. These 10 modles so far from what I could find online and in this sub:

  • Brother P-touch PT-D220, PT-D210, PT-D610BT, CUBE Plus PT-P710BT
  • NIIMBOT D110
  • Phomemo M110
  • DYMO LabelManager 160 and 280
  • Brady M210 and M211

Two D220 things I wish I knew earlier:

  • Frame key + a number jumps to that frame instead of scrolling all 99
  • Symbol has History / Basic / Pictograph. History keeps the last 7

Is there a model I should add? I keep seeing the Brother N25BT, LetraTag, Tepra, Epson LabelWorks, and Cricut in threads here.

Also if you've lived with one of these, is this even a pain point for you?

Why I'm sending ZF8 back in favor of ZF8U? My personal take.

Choices choices!

Got the ZF8 wide boy first but was not impressed with cameras compared to my S23 Ultra. I think it's the same sensor.

Ended up ordering ZF8U for that 200MP sensor + that 3x telephoto and a little bit of extra screen estate.

While I absolutely loved ZF8 for it's quirky form factor and consuming media, I feel ZF8U is a better phone for my usecase which is more geared around productivity and multitasking rather than watching videos. I usually don't watch a lot of content on my phone and instead use the TV. But I do read books and open websites and push a lot of code from my phone in which I feel Ultra is the superior choice (for me).

I really wanted to use the wide ZF8 as my daily driver and I have absolutely no problems with the form factor. It's the camera that kills me because I really enjoy taking photos and Did not want to feel that I'm compromising with something after spending $1800.

Sending ZF8 back tomorrow, will probably record everything end to end because I have read way too many horror stories about phones getting stolen and then Samsung not agreeing to pay the refund.

Just wanted to share my viewpoint. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. :)

Designed a 3D printable MagSafe-compatible case for my XteInk X4 e-reader

Finally got around to designing a case for my XteInk X4 that works with MagSafe/Qi2. I wanted to attach it to the back of my Pixel 10 for one-handed reading on the go.

What's included:

  • Flat back base version (use your own adhesive ring)
  • Pre-cut MagSafe ring recess versions for Google Pixel 10, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro
  • Ring positioning calculated for each phone's magnet array

Printed mine in TPU and it works great as magnets align perfectly and the case has just enough flex to snap the X4 in securely.
