Overview
Not a pocket labeler, this Brother P-Touch is a desktop labeling system that runs standalone or connects to a PC. It prints on laminated tapes up to an inch wide for indoor and outdoor use.
Wide tapes, multiple lines and a big backlit screen handle signage, asset tags and file labels with ease. Memory stores frequent labels. It is heavier than handhelds, and batteries are not included.
Who it's for
Facilities teams and offices that print many labels at a desk benefit from the large screen and memory. People who label on the go should choose a handheld.
