The Machine is great. The tapes stink.

I have had to throw away a number of tapes because they malfunction.They are expensive, and it really angers me.

Great Label Printer

I highly recommend you download the P-Touch Editor Software to get the most efficient easy use of your machine! I did download the software on my IMac and found the software very unfriendly.......I was frustrated and I decided to try the printer on my PC which is running Windows 10 and found the P-Touch software amazing! A very different experience than occurred when using on my iMac! I was so surprised at the ease of use, the huge number of repopulated labels covering everything from Holiday labels including Christmas, Halloween, home labels covering electrical symbols, kitchen items, address labels, gift tags to name a only a few! I tried a few of the pre setup labels and by simply checking a box you can have the label fill whatever size label you are currently using -- that is done automatically! I am a home user and can see that this is going to be a very practical and handy device to get organized.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Brother P-Touch PT-P700
on January 17, 2018

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". And it wastes 1/2' to 3/4" of tape each printing (cuts off that much tape) before the actual printed label is produced.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Works great-wastes tape!

While the PT-P700 prints great labels, every time you print there is an approximately one inch piece of label tape that spits out of the device. I don't know the technology that must require this. Perhaps the tape transport mechanism needs that much to grip the tape and propel it through the printer. Whatever it is, it is wasteful and therefore extremely annoying to a "value conscious" person such as myself.

Associated Software

In initially playing with it, I found the associated software difficult. I would set the tape size (TZe-231) and length, then started typing the description. If I went over the set length, it would stretch the label outline beyond what would fit for that length. All this was much easier to set up on my Brother PT-1800/1810. I expect I am doing something wrong, so looked for a tutorial on YouTube, but alas. I really need my PT-P700 in order to organize my rather extensive personal and genealogical documents. P.S. One would think that after all these years, you could find a way to eliminate the 1" of wasted blank tape.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I work for the railroad and wish that Brother could produce a sleeve label cartridge, the sleeve label would slide over the identifying wire.

I bought this as an upgrade to portable unit I’ve had for years. I like the option of having larger sizes to print on, and that I can import images / logos. I’ve found I incorporate logos far more often that I though I would
