Dymo Labelers are fine for sighted assistants who don't know Braille to
label folders, but they are very cumbersome to use and break easily.
Braille Slates or better the Braille Writer attachment suits me best.
Unfortunately, Dymo tape does not last more than a year or two on
plastic cassettes and I fear on compact card cases.

I have a labeler to sell for $25, including all the tape I have which
won't
be more than a couple of rolls. It will label in print or Braille. I
found
it took too long and just kept using my slate. It was a present.
