A great improvement!
By L. Worthington
I have used Seiko Label Printers for several years. The last one I owned (#420) had serious design flaws: the label compartment was fiendishly difficult to open, and feeding the labels into the printer to start a roll was awful - reaching around behind the printer, trying to insert the end of the roll into an invisible slot, and often seeing 1/2 a label emerge. I was hopeful when this new model was announced. I ordered it through Amazon and recieved it the next day. When I installed the software from the included CD it imported all of my labels from the previous address book, including the images used on some. Loading new labels is fantastically easy: Insert the roll into the compartment and run the label leader into a little slot in the compartment, in plain view. The roll feeds smoothly and cleanly. This means that I can change sizes (ie: Address, Shipping, etc.) in a snap - something I never bothered with in the older model due to the difficulty. There is a choice of interface colors,label sizes, fonts, etc., making this the perfect tool for home and/or office. My only question to Seiko is: What took you so long to improve this product? I would certainly recommend the #620 to anyone who wants to print labels for any and all purposes.

Installation issue reduces my rating.
By Burhl Gilpin
My SLP200 was no longer supported so I replaced it with the SLP620.
The SLP620 installation CD provided the expected interactive menus but wrote nothing my hard disk.
I finally realized that the 64 bit version of Windows 8 was the problem.
Went to the Seiko web site and downloaded an update, installation then went smoothly.

Since Win 8 has been out for 6 months and Win 7 was available as 64 bit there should not have been an installation issue.

Yes, the SLP620 prints faster than the SLP200. The ac adapter for the 620 is rated at 2.5 amperes, while the 200 is rated at 1.5 amperes ... more heat for the thermal unit.

By Donald N.
The SLP620 is the third Seiko Label printer I have purchased. The other printers I have given to family members. This one is the best. I only use the Label Printer for mailing labels and return addresses. The SLP620 is so very easy to install a fresh roll of labels compared to the other printers I have owned. Also it was so very easy to install the device on my iMac. I had to do nothing for the new device to print the stored addresses from my previous device after I used the installation CD. Also this device seems to be faster and does not take up as much desk space. I am very happy with the device.
