Review Summary

Rated 4 out of 5

Works well for its intended purpose

Overall this works very well. I have used genuine Brother labels which print perfectly. I have mixed experience with third party labels. While significantly less expensive, the quality varies. I also use this printer connected to my Macbook Pro to print LEGO labels. This also has had mixed results. If the label is on the longer side, 6+ inches, it tends to not printer properly. But this has been a reliable label printer overall.

Great printer, and very easy to set up and use.

This is an awesome printer, and very easy to use. Used with the P-Touch editor, the operation is easy and seamless. It has the ability to do chain printing so that no tape is wasted when printing multiple labels; it cuts the labels precisely. I use it exclusively with the PC interface. I had to download a special driver when I 'updated' to WIN11, but the Brother website had everything I needed to get it back up and running.

Editor software not Apple friendly.

Loved my PT-D600. It made making custom labels or edited labels from templates easy. However, when I moved to Apple Mac and wanted to move my PT-D600 from the PC to the Mac, I was very disappointed. It's a great label printer but the macOS software doesn't even compare.

Easy to use and adaptable content

Love that you can easily plug this into the laptop and create using images, pre-made content and text fonts. Easy to carry around a job site and takes a certain amount of physical abuse being in a construction site. Been using this for a few years and it's still in great shape

To wasteful

Your label maker is fine except for one major issue. There is way too much waste at the beginning of each print. It's bad enough tape is already so expensive but that just ads insult to injury

PT600D?I?d rather an updated PT9600-PRO

If I were rating this device completely standalone, this is a fairly solid product. I have a no complaints with it. However, I am a previous owner of a PT 9600PRO and this was it?s closest replacement. I can?t help but be disappointed with features that are not available on this model such as not taking the larger tapes.

Nice printer but a few issues

I selected this particular printer for a few reasons, the most important being the ability to connect to my PC and also to print a variety text styles, including italics and to be able to print weather resistant labels. However, I recently upgraded my pc to Windows 11. While your website says it is compatible, it doesn?t work. While Otis possible to print in italics, it is quite challenging when mixing different font styles.

Excellent Label Maker - Easy to print from desktop

We have had this labeler at our business for the past year. Works great, fast, and has a user friendly app for desktop printing. You are able to save label templates so once set up makes printing file folder label or medical records labels easy. Highly recommended.

Brother Label Maker

I like the label maker but it wastes a lot of tape. I have tried to figure out a way of not wasting so much tape but have not had any success.

This is just what I needed for waterproof plant markers for the garden. The inch wide tape and easy formatting make two line labels that are easy to read. G

Will Not Work with Windows 11 64bit

Upgraded from Windows 10 64bit to Windows 11 and now my PTD600 Label Printer will not work. I continuously get USB error messages and Brother has done nothing to issue a printer driver specifically for Windows 11.

Many options and functions

The PT-D600 is the replacement I chose for a failed PT-1230pc I have been using for years. I need a printer that can be programmed on a PC and the '600 has that capability and so much more. I like that it can accommodate a variety of size tapes. I like that it can use graphics also. I have not used the built in keyboard, but it does add the option that the '1230 did not. Overall I am quite satisfied with new printer.

Wonderful little machine and understanding why

I really like this little machine and everything I can create from it. I was bothered by how much tape I waste, 1" before and at the end of my label adds up to wasting a LOT of tape. And the tape cartridges are not inexpensive. After ready WHY this happens, I understand. I love the multiple options and uses.

Can't say enough about this label printing machine

The PT-D600 is a wonderful device for many reasons. It attaches to your PC and you can use the P-Touch software to create just about any kind of label you desire. Of course, with the built-in keyboard, you can create one-off labels quickly and easily. The PT-D600 takes a variety of label sizes, colors and types. Love this device. I bought one a few years back while employed at a large financial company and I bought this one for my small business that I run now that I'm retired. Can't say enough good things about this label printing machine!

Disapointed

This label maker is disappointing in a couple of areas. In the size of your fonts it skips sizes. There is no happy medium for making file labels. My file label end up either being too large due to the length of my titles or too small to read in order to fit the tab. Also, this label maker wastes way too much tape! I was am not happy with this label maker as it does not fit my needs at work but as the company paid for it, I cannot complain or return it and they will not pay for another type or brand. I do like, however, that it will run off of AC adapter or batteries.

About Brother Label Maker

FEATURED REVIEWS

By anxious

The unit is outstanding!!! As you might expect it has so many slick features that we have not had occasion to use them all. But the labels it produces are exceptional, many font options and the color display is really professional and easy to read.

PT-D600

By Kayoum

The price of the printer cannot justify its features. I have used a few high end label printers but none stood the test of time when it comes to reliability like the Borthers.

The PT-D600 is a versatile, PC-connectable label maker well suited for a variety of labeling usages in a business environment. Quickly create professional-looking labels using the built-in keyboard or connect to a computer to create more personalized labels. The intuitive, full-color graphical display offers easy access to formatting menus as well as the ability to preview actual label appearance before printing. Just type, format and print. You can even save up to 99 labels in the large memory, a great time-saving feature. With its included AC power adapter and USB cable, you can be confident that your label maker will be ready when you are.

The PT-D600 works with 5 different TZe tape widths - and the convenient, top-loading tape design lets you easily change tape cassette sizes and colors. Standard TZe tapes are durable and laminated, so they withstand water, heat and fading. See the Supplies & Accessories tab to view thier full-line of standard and specialty TZe tapes.

• Personalize labels: Use 14 fonts, 11 styles, 99 frames, over 600 symbols, plus barcodes
• Large Memory: Save up to 99 commonly used labels and help save time with reprinting
• Includes: 0.94" (24mm) "TZe" starter tape, USB cable and AC power adapter

The P-touch PT-D600 is an ideal label maker for business users who want a quick and easy way to quickly create a wide variety of professional, durable labels for their office
The P-touch PT-D600 is a compact, PC-connectable label maker with a color backlit graphic display and a large, QWERTY-style keyboard that help make it easy to create professional labels for the office. You can connect the PT-D600 to a Windows or Mac computer with the included USB cable to be used with the free P-touch Editor Label Design software. Used on its own, the PT-D600 features an easy-type keyboard with large keys and an angled design for comfortable typing. Its fast print speeds and automatic tape cutter make it particularly well-suited for larger labeling jobs.

Get an accurate picture of the label you're creating
The PT-D600 is the first P-touch Label Maker to feature a full-color graphic display. The backlit display updates in real time as you type and format and it even automatically detects the color of the installed tape, presenting a true WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) label design experience.

P-touch Editor Label Design Software helps you print a wide range of professional labels from your Windows or Mac computer
P-touch Editor Label Design software enables you to connect to your computer to create an impressive array of labels. Choose from an expansive library of label templates and create custom labels using fonts, symbols and graphics stored on your computer.

Create labels using the large library of fonts, frames and symbols

Plus, the PT-D600 features a large internal memory that lets you save up to 99 of your most-commonly used labels and reprint them with a few button presses!

Flexible powering options and a backlit display let you use the PT-D600 almost anywhere
The PT-D600 can be powered by either 6 AA batteries (not included) or the included AC power adapter to give you the ability to make labels at your desk or on the go. Plus the generously-sized color backlit display is bright enough to give you a clear view of your work, even in low-light conditions.

TZe tapes are protected by a thin, clear film to withstand water, grease, fading, abrasion, heat and cold, making them ideal for indoor and outdoor applications. TZe labels feature a split back design for hassle-free application. Use one of Brother specialty tapes to create flexible cable and wire identification labels or create labels with acid-free adhesive that are safe for scrapbooking and other photosensitive materials. There's even non-laminated fabric iron-on tape for labeling clothing and more.
