 Lousy Batery Usage July 27, 2010
J. Masteller
I used brand new, no where near expiring batteries... after first print out (about 10 characters) it informed me the batteries were running low. After a few more print outs it would just power off half way through a print. I had to constantly take out the batteries, and wiggle them around to get the thing to work. It prints out about 2 times (8-10 characters each) before it shut off and I have to start with the battery wiggling again. I wish I could give it a better review, but I won't.

Battery issues make this product useless! May 25, 2010
Ramad Ash (Iowa City,IA)

As someone who has been happy with other Brother products I think the company really dropped the ball here.
I read the reviews that mentioned that the batteries don't last long. But for a brand new battery pack to only print about 7 (SEVEN) small labels before the machine shuts down is ridiculous. The biggest shocker for me, however, was that this label maker does NOT accept rechargeable NiMH batteries. And remember, there is no AC adapter for this device. I think this is a serious design flaw (or defect) making this completely useless, unless you like going through Alkaline batteries like popcorn.
I returned this product after a very short time (thank you AMAZON!) and ordered another label maker (Brother PT-2100). And the PT-2100 ROCKS! The PT-2100 accepts researchable NiMH batteries (and they seem to last forever), and it comes with an AC power adapter.
The Pt-80 had enough capabilities for my needs, but until brother fixes that power issue, it is not a machine you can rely on.
Unforgivably atrocious battery life May 25, 2010
Stevie Blaze (Austin, TX)

No matter how excellent many other features of this labeler are, everything is negated by the astonishingly horrible battery life on this product. It goes through batteries like no other product I've ever owned. It's as if they did it on purpose! The fact that it doesn't even have an option for a dc input makes it even worse. I've already spent more on batteries for this thing than I have on the item itself. Junk.
Great Labelmaker May 22, 2010
Office Nut (Tucson, AZ, US)
I already owned one of this exact model and took it to the office. It is so easy to use that I purchased another one for home office use! The tape refills are reasonably priced and it is reliable. Good value!
