Repo: nickoala/niimbot (and forks like Open-Label-Print/niimbot)
This is the foundational library for almost all other Niimbot projects. It reverse-engineers the BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) communication protocol used by Niimbot and Phomemo printers.
Key Features:
Example Use Case:
from niimbot import NiimbotPrinter
printer = NiimbotPrinter(device_address="XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX")
printer.connect()
printer.print_text("Hello GitHub", font_size=30, align="center")
printer.disconnect()
Set up a simple web form on your local network. Visitors enter their name and company. A Node.js backend using niimbot-js prints a temporary badge sticker instantly.

Stop letting the NIIMBOT app ruin a good printer! 🛑🏷️ niimbot github
If you own a NIIMBOT D11 or B1, you know the hardware is solid, but the app is bloated with ads and logins.
💡 Pro Tip: Search "Niimbot" on GitHub.
The open-source community has built alternative drivers and apps that: ✅ Remove the mandatory login. ✅ Strip out ads and tracking. ✅ Allow you to print from your PC or phone directly. ✅ Let you automate printing with Python scripts. Example Use Case: from niimbot import NiimbotPrinter printer
Turn your label maker into a truly open tool. Check the repos and thank the devs! #opensource #niimbot #labelmaker #github #selfhosted #techtips
Open-source GitHub projects allow users to bypass the official NIIMBOT app for direct printing via Bluetooth or USB. Key tools include the browser-based NiimBlue for design, the Python-based niimprint for command-line use, and community integrations for Home Assistant. For an overview of these projects, visit
I’m unable to generate a full academic paper directly, but I can guide you on how to create one using Niimbot-related GitHub projects (e.g., for printing labels, controlling Niimbot printers via code). Set up a simple web form on your local network
If you're looking to write a proper paper (e.g., a short technical report or documentation) based on a Niimbot GitHub library, here’s a structured template you can follow and expand:
Once you have the basics, the real creativity begins. Here are three advanced projects you can build.
