Ideal for Small Business use

Bought one for our warehouse then bought another for the office. Compact and ideal for quick easy labels. Have even managed to import our logo when we were advised by another printer sales that this would be impossible without spending £100's. Ideal for small/medium business use whatever you are doing. Plug and play or download programme for more detailed labels. Easy to understand.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not as good as I expected from Brother
on December 26, 2025
Posted by: Xyz73
Instructions could be made a lot easier, you have to work lots of things out yourself. It is the worst product I have bought for instructions on how to use. No I would not buy again and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else too!

Brother QL-800 Label Printer

Bought this label printer for our small home-based craft business as pervious bubble jet printer (other manufacturer) had packed up.
Very impressed by the easy set up, very good options on software, wide choise of lables that fit the QL-800 and how quickly and smoothly it prints!
Now also being used for volunteer projects and with household uses.

Perfect to print labels quickly for our samples. The 2 colour feature is good to highlight the colour name.

Perfect for two colour labels

I was a bit wary of buying this printer as the specs seemed too good to be true. I spent some time trying to get it installed on my windows 7 then tried windows 10 and went without a hitch. It is all it is claimed to be. Easy to understand artwork, fast and great colours, I tried to smudge the print but was impressed it did not budge. The included artwork is impressive also and easy to setup and print. The footprint is small and compact and will suit any busy office. For the price it is unbelievable, I would recommend it to anyone

Limited software support.

The bundled label software is adequate, if a little ideosyncratic in the way it formats imported fields. However, the greatest drawback is that MS Office integration only works with 32-bit Windows. If you have a 64-bit machine, Brother don't want your custom. And since many new PCs are now shipped with 64-bit Windows as standard, Brother label printers are not for you..
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fantastic little printer
on February 9, 2021

Being self employed and sending out orders this is perfect for labeling my parcels. No costly ink cartridges just plug in to my laptop and go.
Would have been good if I could have used it wirelessly with the app on my phone but ho hum you can't have everything x
I would recommend this to a friend!
