Design Concept

Another design/solution I made for my own use. Thought I'd share it. This label holder for the Niimbot D11 portable thermal printer is designed to keep label spools organized and accessible. It combines practicality with a sleek design, making it suitable for home or office use. The case has a print-in-place hinge which was print-tested on both my Creality Hi and K1C with PLA.

2026/01/31 - Added the Desktop Stand to hold the D11 and the spool holder. Print while it sits in the cradle.

Purpose

The holder is intended to organize and protect label spools, ensuring they are neatly stored and easily retrieved whenever needed.

It can hold up to 5 rolls (max 15mm width, which is the max label width for this specific printer). There are little slots in each bay where you can insert the end of the label to keep the roll from moving around too much. You don't have to use it. I made this last night for myself, and my rolls are new. I have no idea what will happen as the rolls get smaller. I will make adjustments when I get to that stage.
