Believe it or not, you’re going to find that something such as a label maker is going to help you out tremendously during your college days.  I know back in my day, I lost so many items and it just made me wonder how many things I’d have back, if I would have labeled them.

Not only are these label makers great for putting your information on important things such as graphing calculators and more, you’re also going to find that it’s a great way to label items for classes and more.  From labeling your folders to your books, if you like to be organized, you may want to spend $30 or so to get a nice one.

Listed below are the top 5 label makers that I would consider when you’re ready to set out and purchase one for school.

#1 Brother PT1290 Office Labeler (around $40): A simple, 15 character LCD display, this label maker is a great handheld device, as you’re going to be able to take it just about anywhere.  The cool thing about this best seller is that it laminates the labels, making them very hard to get damaged / ripped.

#2 Brother PT-80 (around $35): This highly rated label maker has a cool, yet colorful design that you will more than likely enjoy.  It’s very affordable, you can create labels with the touch of one button, as well as select from symbols/pictures as well as the letters / numbers.

#3 Dymo 69110 (around $75): This is a little on the more expensive side, but you will find that the price tag is well worth it.  This is not only great for college students, it fits the bill for business professionals as well.  Can print 55 labels at 300 dpi per minute.

#4 Smart Label Printer by Seiko (around $100): While its the most expensive one on the list, you’re going to soon find out that you can truly get your money worth with this one.  Print labels in 2 seconds, as well as get high resolutions outputs.

#5 Dymo 11946 LetraTag (around $25): This is the most affordable out of all of them and you’re going to find that it is well worth the price.  Why spend a lot when you don’t have to?  It’s lightweight, has a LCD screen, as well as 5 different printing styles.

While you have a lot to choose from, you’re going to want to factor in the price, the quality, as well as how it’s going to work for you.  There’s a great selection out there, so be sure to pick one out that will work best for you during your college years.
