https://www.ebay.com/itm/276296332552 I got this, needs a power supply of indeterminate voltage and ofc a USB keyboard. Have not bought the consumable (they call it “ink” but it seems to also include the adhesive tape thing?) which seems to be like $200 a roll for 1000ft. I plan to figure that out when I get the thing

It showed up at my house and powers on successfully and myself and ellie (new) bought some ink and some print media. When that arrives, I will bring it to the space and set it up.

ellie (new) also got a keyboard for it, so we should be able to make labels with symbols easier.
