This is a very good label printer. Unfortunately, it won't allow me to print in red anymore.

Can't make the drivers work with the printer so I can't use it.

Good printer. We use this to make barcode labels for our store. We've only been using it for a few months, but it seems to be a workhorse.

Easy to set up, works great. The brother GL-800 has saved us money.

The QL-800 is a major step up from my decades-old Dymo LabelWriter 330 Turbo. After a couple of months of use -- I am delighted that I made the decision to move from Dymo to Brother! The Brother software allows me to format labels in ways that were impossible with my Dymo. The software was easy to learn despite offering numerous custom options. The Brother labels themselves have a smoother, nicer finish than Dymo labels and the text on the Brother labels is sharper, easier to read. I have a variety of label needs so I frequently change label cartridges. Doing so is fast and easy with the Brother QL-800. Dymo labels yellowed considerably over time -- any label exposed to office lighting soon looked sufficiently poor that I reprinted and covered aged labels. It's too early to know how the Brother labels will age but I hope they will hold up longer over time.

I love my new brother printer! I have a small candy business and I used to have to use Avery labels to print to label all my products which was time-consuming and way more expensive. This is quick and easy and I love it.

It took me awhile to find the label with the zipcode bar on it. It should have been the first template instead of the last 2 The printer works well.

Since the IOS 18 software update, I am not longer able to access any of my previous labels or settings. I have used this machine for 4 years. I hope that this review will help resolve this as it is impossible to reach anyone regarding.

After installing the software, I printed some labels. The next day the printer was offline and I have not been able to get it back online. I submitted a request to Brother for help but have no received a call or email. Not impress with product or support.

Printer is fantastic, software is not the easiest to use. It is not as user friendly as other software especially when you are using multiple size labels to print. I use this to put price tags on all my products. You can only reduce a upc code to a limited size where I would prefer to be able to reduce it more to fit my .9x.9 labels. Using the database is a must and a bit of a learning curve. Thanks to youtube university for all the help. Brother customer service knows nothing when it comes to this printer.

works great. Only problem is that you have to buy the whole assembly to change roles instead of just being able to replace a label roll on the spool. Very wasteful and poor design compared to your competitors.

I bought my QL-800 for school. I would have loved to use it, unfortunately it didn't broke right after I got it. I try getting it warranty but that was no luck. I expect so much more from brothers.

Purchased for our office. Easy to set up and start blasting out labels! We are able to use our own logo's on the labels since they are monochrome color. The amount of options easily set our labels and visitor passes apart from the rest! Very quick to print and cut. I am glad we went with this machine over any others.

Great. We needed a label printer for our clinic and tried the new Dymo, which sucked. This one is slightly bigger but great for our needs and even cuts the label for us! Simple set up and no software needed that opens every time the machine powers on.

This label printer does a great job, FAST. It prints quickly, cuts cleanly and accurately. The PTouch software integrates well with it. We're very satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend this printer.

It's fine unless you want to print a label for UPS. The label is too small for use with UPS. For USPS, it's great. Small, but great. If you want a thermal label printer to use with Ebay shipping, for example, look somewhere else. This label maker is only good for shipping via USPS. No shipping flexibility.

Wonderful printer! Easy to install and very user friendly! Labels are crisp and clear. I highly recommend this product!

Printer works great, the only problem is if a label gets stuck it is very difficult to get into the machine to pull it out. It is very tight and if you pull on something the soldered wires on the board disconnect and the printer is useless.

I've finally managed to get the printer to do what I want to do but I still can't figure out how to turn a list of addresses in MS Word into a source of labels for all addresses. The software that runs the printer is HORRENDOUSLY complicated and not at all intuitive. Just want to print out 30 labels for your usual suspects in Word or Excel? Or a single-name label? Good luck. If there's an ultra-simple demo or instruction sheet on how to do the simplest thing I've yet to find it. If you want to create your own custom label that may or may not link to your addressee list then enjoy the hours of fiddling around to make this happen. Kludgy is the only word that adequately describes the software that comes with the printer.

just what i was looking for
By ohiost68
i like this printer. i bought it because i had a dynamo, and it doesnt function with windows 10. i do wish the user interface was easier to use in all aspects of the software. i also wish it was easier to understand the label rolls needed to do different things and they were available in local stores
Great features

Great for my business, easy to use! Best little printer
