We've bought a handheld Dymo LabelManager 280 for our Hackerspace. We've tried third-party labels, but we'll be back to official ones. Not because the third-party ones aren't supported - they very much are! It's because they turned out to be shitty; the quality of print is quite bad. Not a showstopper, but you don't spend money on a label printer to have shitty-looking labels everywhere.
