Summary: Label are more expensive than the printer
Comment: As mentioned in another review, this device does print labels clearly (they even last through the dishwasher). But. It's secondary purpose is to waste tape.

Label tape is very expensive, and each label is printed with 1 inch of blank tape for absolutely no reason other than waste it.

Also, it takes 6 AAA batteries. This just annoys me.

Summary: Great Basic Labeler
Comment: I needed a no-frills labeler. This item has been great for me. You can print several different font sizes, basic text formatting (bold, italics, underline, outline, shadow, etc), and even a few border styles (candy, wood, round, etC).

Loading and unloading tape cartridges is every easy. Battery life has been good too.

It does waste quite a bit at the ends of the labels. If you can print more than one at a time, do it. Separate text by three or four spaces then use scissors to cut apart your labels. Do not press the label cut button while printing, or it will stop printing.

This labeler met my expectations! I would give it 5 stars if it did not waste material at the ends of each label.

Summary: You need the adaptor cord
Comment: I first purchased the Brother PT-1010 thinking that I would try it out with batteries before I committed to buying the adaptor. The thing absolutely, positively would not run with BRAND NEW BATTERIES! Every time I tried to print, I got a low battery message.

Once I purchased the A/C adaptor it worked like a charm. Thus far the labels have been exactly what I was looking for - crisp printing, easy peeling and sturdy.

Besides the batteries, I have two other criticisms. First, the User's Manual is confusing. It's far easier to just start pushing buttons. Second, each label has about 1/2" wasted space on either side of the letters. I've taken to printing several labels at one time using 3 spaces to separate them. I then print as if it were one long label and cut them apart with scissors. There's much less waste that way!
