That's not a #1 tool...

Support for ALL kinds of labels, including fabric and shrink-wrap. Wifi and USB connectivity(you really want the PCbased SW when you want to create labels for a large series of items. Yes, it imports DBs) often-used labels can be stored in memory, it does Barcodes.
And in an emergency it can be used to bash users with...
Can connect to phone(although the android app is aids).
Can print multiple labels at once and half-cut through the label itself but not the peel on the back of it(less messy with many labels).
Relatively little margin, can be set to 0 margin if you're chain printing, apart from a little extra feed after the last print.
QWERTY keyboard(like really how hard is this?).
Also its like 200$.

Not really sure on the BIFL aspect though(especially that app, its horrendous)
Brother P-Touch-E550W
Brother Laminated Tape Black on Yellow, 24mm (TZe651)
A little bit of an investment at first, but it saves a lot of time and hassle being able to print out a long strip of sequential labels that are half-cut and easy to peel off.
Further to this, specific product recommendations for Brother label makers:
PT-P750W for PC-only printing.
PT-E550W if you want a screen and keyboard to use it standalone too.
Both do USB and WiFi printing. And as you say, printing a whole series in one go, especially with the later models' half-cut mode that cuts the labels without cutting the backing, I've quite often printed two metres of labels in one go that way.
