Casio USB Label Mouse Printer

Posted by Joel Johnson, November 2, 2007 8:20 AM | permalink

Getting Things Done nerds will be drooling into their file folders over the Casio USB Label Mouse Printer, which tucks a little thermal printer into the bottom of an otherwise conventional two-button mouse. Labels are printed using any TrueType font you have on your "PC," which in this context leads me to believe it's Windows-only.

It's $30 from Brando, plus $14 for a three-pack of thermal roll paper.

Would it have killed them to make this an optical mouse?

That is such a weird idea that I may have to get one.

I went from a response of "Hey, that's cool" to "Well, that's stupid" in about a five second span.

Ball mice are so 20th century.

Even if it were optical, I'd still be saying "Meh, outdated" - I love my laser mouse. ^_^

I don't think Casio support anything other than Windows generally. Hmm, is there any label maker support in CUPS I wonder? It would probably be easy enough to hack if there was.
