You never forget your first P Touch

This label maker replaces a Brother P=20 that I have had since the 1990's. I upgraded to the model with the blow-moulded case for protection when I use this in the field. I am an HVAC tech and this tools is used extensively to label circuits, loope, breakers, and switches, etc. Very nice improvements over the last 30 years!

Closer to perfect

I have used three other label printers in recent years, one from Epson and two of the standalone Brother models. This is by far the most useful and versatile. Working with a software through the PC has not always been simple, but I have been able to accomplish pretty much whatever I needed to for the labels in my home.
The combination of the software, PC, and printer allow you to use the fonts available on the PC, but I have not been able to figure out a way to use a couple of the fonts onboard the printer. I've been a big fan of Florida and Adams, and have had to use substitutes. A little annoying, but certainly no tragedy.
If you really want to get labels looking exactly the way you want, this printer comes closest. I have found it to be very useful and quite reliable.
The final challenge to me is to get more colors in Brother's labels. No green on white, folks? Seriously? I actually had to go to China to get them from a third party, not my favorite "go-to" choice.
A little background on me: located in a suburb of Rochester New York. Using label makers for 10 to 15 years. Current product is used to label parts drawers for hardware, binder spines and covers, electrical switch panel and wall plates.
I would recommend that friends interested in getting a labeler consider those available from Brother first. There really is no way to just say "buy this particular one." If that were the case, why would brother sell any more than just this particular product?

Does the job the description says

The printer works well. The print is clean and dense. It is a bit wasteful with the added un-printed length. This could add up if you are making many short labels. I connected mine to my PC with USB. The software for this is less user friendly than expected but it does do the job.

Not for professional organizers.

I'm a professional organizer and I need to create lots of labels quickly. This device only allows you to create one label at a time, although you may print duplicates of it. It doesn't allow the option to create multiple unique labels and print and cut them at the same time. Meaning, if I'm labeling a pantry I have to type "Pasta" hit print (then hit it again to confirm I only want one copy of it), then once it's done printing and cutting, delete "Pasta" and type "Rice" then repeat the steps all over again. Printing is fast, but not that fast. And how do you catch all the cuttings when you're on the go? You'd have to have something you carry around with you to catch the labels as you're standing in the pantry/wherever to see what the next label is. The cutting feature is really nice and would be an absolute game changer IF it were possible to print multiple labels at once. If you print multiples of the same label, it can cut in between them, but they're just duplicates, not different words on the labels. Super disappointing because this is one of the few models that allows 1" label tape. But I can't print one label at a time when I have 50-100 to make. If you use it at your desk only and need lots of copies of the same thing, you would like it. But I'm returning.

Very handy, better than I expected

I was looking at hand-held label maker for tagging cable and equipment identification, when I came across this portable label maker. I like the flexible connectivity that allows me to use the local keyboard, use software on my Macintosh Computer, and even access it from my iPhone over Bluetooth!
I use the Bluetooth most because I can simply design and print cable tags then collect them from the printer and apply. This means I don’t need another clunky piece of equipment with my tools and I can conveniently place the label printer.
One star ding is for the odd interface and some confusing documentation. Some of the keys are modal meaning they will only work while in a particular mode - the documentation fails to mention these prerequisites.
All-in-all I’m very pleased with my 610BT labeler. I’m glad I upgraded to the wider tape as well.
