This appear to be basic low-end economy model of PTouch machine. Like the old model, PT-1500PC, much better, until it stopped working. This model's software seems confusing. Just wanted a label maker that connects to my PC. I feel this model is less "user friendly".

I have spent hours trying to get the full version of the software to work... I can print out using Lite, but that means I miss out on too many features. This is my second Brother product in 4 months - both major software dissapointments.

Really great label printer! Soooo easy to use and the end result is fantastic! I will highly recommend this product! It only comes with a sample cartridge, so make sure you order an extra cartridge with your printer.

Excellent item. It is completely plug and play with Windows 10. I plugged it into my laptop and it worked instantly. Didn't even have to load drivers. Prints nice labels.

Great little unit, with great software. Does power off if not using, so if your computer isn't detecting it, power it up before you panic!

Looks to be OK as far as the printer itself goes, but......the cassettes. :-( The instruction sheet tells you to "Insert a tape cassette and close the cassette cover". No caveats concerning the cassette itself. If you don't put it in just right it jams and guess what!

Spent 2 days trying to re-install the drivers but the label maker will not work. Want to buy mine?

As another review has mentioned the software for Mac is dated and not particularly easy to use. Also the snap function (copy and paste from external source) isn't working for El Capitan. However I found it available cheaply online with a money back offer from Brother which made it very good value.

I use this printer primarily for creating asset tags that have our company logo on them. It was important to be able to connect and print from a computer to this printer. It connects through USB only. I currently us the P-Touch Editor version 5.0.120. I used to use a Brother PT-2730.

Great Item
