Redefining Printing with Munbyn – Complete Review 2024

I have been using a Munbyn thermal printer for a long time and recently purchased another one just for sticker labels.

I’m impressed (to say the least) by the speed, accuracy, and affordability of my printers. I tried finding out more about these printers but couldn’t find a comprehensive review of all the main products in one place.

The Munbyn website explains its products in brief but that’s about it. So I thought I’d write a review to let others decide if Munbyn is good for them.

Here’s my detailed Munbyn review

Munbyn is a brand known for its printing and labeling products. You know how sometimes you need to print shipping labels or product labels?

With Munbyn printers, you can do that without ink or toner. It uses heat to make images and characters. This makes Munbyn more cost-effective and eco-friendly.

How Thermal Printing Works

Thermal printers have tiny heating elements on their print heads. These printers use electricity to power up the heating elements.

When a heated print head comes in contact with heat-sensitive paper, there’s a chemical reaction that turns the paper black at contact points.

The result is a fast, precise, and usually smudge-proof print. Since you don’t have to refill your printer with ink or toner every month, thermal printers are more cost-effective. They are also faster and quieter than traditional printers.

Mubyn Products Review

Let’s discuss some Munbyn products.

1. Thermal Label Printers

Munbyn thermal label printers are easy to set up and use. Plus, they are compact, which makes them a good choice for small office spaces.

They can even be used for on-the-go printing. And since these printers don’t use ink or toner, they are sustainable and affordable.

They are ideal for short-term use such as printing shipping labels, QR codes, custom stickers, etc. With a 4×6 label printer, you can print a range of labels and slips for various needs.

These printers come in three versions: USB, Bluetooth, and Wireless. But there are way too many options by Munbyn so I’ll discuss only the best sellers here.

USB version Bestseller: MUNBYN RealWriter 941 Thermal Shipping Label Printer

Now this is a printer that will take care of your shipping label needs. If you’re an online seller and need to ship a lot of parcels daily, this little printing machine will print all your labels in no time. It’s a thermal printer so it needs no ink or toner.

It automatically calibrates labels so you can be sure of the output quality – the print is always accurate and quick. It lets you use 203 DPI for daily needs and 300 DPI for high definition.

Want to know how fast this baby can go? It can print up to 72 labels per minute.

This is much faster than the regular inkjet printers in offices.

It’s very affordable, which makes it an ideal choice for small offices and limited budgets.

Bluetooth version Bestseller: RealWriter 941 Bluetooth Thermal Label Printer

If you want all the qualities mentioned above but without the hassle of wires and cables, the Bluetooth thermal label printer is made for you.

It will connect wirelessly to your phone and you can print labels “no strings (cables) attached”.

While it supports Bluetooth for Android and iOS, it can also be connected to your PC via USB. Equipped with Japan ROHM print head, it gives an amazing speed of 150 mm/s, which means you can print over 5,000 labels per day. It works best for a distance within 3m.

This printer supports all major shipping platforms including UPS, FedEx, Etsy, eBay, etc.

AirPrint version Bestsellers: RealWriter 941 AirPrint / RealWriter 401 AirPrint

There are two bestsellers in this category: RealWriter 941 AirPrint and RealWriter 401 AirPrint. Both of them offer amazing results.

With AirPrint, you can give a print command from your Mac, iPhone, or iPad wirelessly to the printer. And you don’t need to install additional drivers or other types of software for that.

You can choose the printer right from your Apple device and give the print command. Your phone will automatically connect to RealWriter 941/401 with AirPrint technology.

This device can identify colors and reflect the color difference by adjusting the print color depth.

2. Personalized Sticker Labels

Whether you’re looking for branding and marketing or event promotion and decoration, personalized sticker labels can be used for several purposes. Sticker label printers are useful in the office and at homes.

Sticker labels by Munbyn are BPA-free and water-resistant so they’re safe to use and won’t smudge while shipping. There are holographic silver labels, transparent clear labels, rainbow heart labels, and many more.

All these thermal sticker labels come with strong adhesion so they stay in their place. They can also be removed when needed, without damaging the product or packaging.

Personalized sticker labels are great for startups as they help spread the word. Attractive labels catch attention and make your brand more visible.

And of course, they are amazing for personal celebrations such as birthdays, weddings, and baby showers. These labels can be used on favors, candy, wine, and other things to add a personal touch.

Let’s discuss some personalized sticker labels and how you can use them.

Transparent clear labels

These stickers have a transparent clear base and they are ideal for glasses, bottles, and beauty containers. Or basically, anything that needs your brand name on it but without changing its appeal.

Munbyn clear labels are made of durable, weather-resistant material and offer a sleek and minimalist look.

Holographic silver labels

The beauty of holographic labels lies in the fact that they change colors depending on how light falls on them.

They give a rainbow-like colorful appeal and instantly catch attention. You can put them on greeting cards, bouquets, candy bags, wedding favors, and other places.

Since they are eye-catching, they can be excellent for brand promotion. Their iridescent finish gives a 3D appeal and you can apply them to your promotional material.

They stand out in flyers and brochures and can also be used on laptop sleeves, water bottles, and phone cases. Since they look distinguished, you can try them for your offline marketing campaigns.

Stickers of different shapes and sizes

Don’t want the plain ol’ boring circle and rectangular shapes? Munbyn has personalized sticker labels in different shapes such as hearts, flowing hearts, stars, pumpkins, Christmas trees, and others.

With these stickers, you can add an extra personal style to your office or home decorations. Different shapes make them ideal for you to run seasonal promotional offers.

For example, you can use Christmas tree-shaped stickers during the Christmas season promotions.

3. Shipping Labels

If you deliver goods, shipping labels are an integral part of your business. And if you don’t want the traditional printer setup with the extra toner and ink costs, Munbyn labels would be an excellent choice for you.

Get white or colored shipping labels in rolls or stacks. These shipping labels work with several services like USPS, FedEx, and PayPal. Let’s discuss their features.

Sustainability

These labels are Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified. This means that the paper used for Munbyn labels comes from forests that are managed in a socially responsible manner.

When you select FSC-certified products, you support sustainable forest practices.

Apart from being sustainable, Munbyn shipping labels are also BPA-free, waterproof, and oil-proof. This means they do not get smudged easily – even when there are water or oil spills around them.

Sizes and packaging

Munbyn offers shipping labels in the standard size of 4” x 6”. You can choose from a range of colors including white, pink, and blue.

They are available as stacks or rolls. There are 500 labels in a pack and the cost of fan-fold labels is the same as label rolls.

Ease of use and compatibility

The labels are perforated at the edge for easy tearing. These rolls can work on not just Munbyn printers but any thermal label printer (except Dymo).

For example, they are compatible with Rollo, Zebra, Polono, LabelRange, and others. However, they are not suitable for regular printers.

Whether you order a stack of fan-fold labels or a label roll, it comes in a kraft carton, which keeps the labels secure. Munbyn labels are reliable and fade-resistant.

The print on them doesn’t fade away, and the adhesive is strong enough to stay on the package and withstand weather elements.

Applications

You can use Munbyn labels for several applications including retail, barcoding, inventory tracking, shipping, warehouse, and others.

When you need a shipping label with clear print and strong adhesive, try Munbyn labels.

Durability

The paper used to create these labels isn’t just eco-friendly, it’s also durable. So your labels will resist smudging, fading, and other environmental damage, not to mention rough handling.

They will stay intact and legible throughout the shipping process. This means a lower risk of lost packages.

Cost-effectiveness

Printing these labels is more cost-effective than traditional printing. You don’t have to spend on toner or printer ink, which can be a huge cost-saver.

4. Eco-friendly Packaging Materials

Packaging a parcel involves a lot of things – packing paper, tape, weighing scales, stretch wrap, and others. All these things ensure that your parcel is packaged securely and your product reaches its destination safely.

Whether you’re looking for cushioning, labels, or other items to pack your goods, you’ll find eco-friendly solutions from Munbyn.
