Brother PT1290 Home and Office Labeler Reviews
| 161 of 163 people found the following review helpful  Great one-liner, not so good two liner, By Phlypp (Tysons Corner VA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Brother PT1290 Home and Office Labeler (Office Product) This is a good printer for someone looking to customize their labels with designs, upside down/right side up, reverse color and other fancy tricks. For business purposes, I'd recommend a printer that takes larger interchangable tapes and less gimmicks. Maximum tape size is 1/2" so dual line print is very small. Keyboard is very tiny, will be limited to two finger typing only. Has two fonts (Bohemia and Helsenki) but can alter with three sizes, three widths and nine stypes (bold, vertical, underline, shadow, hearts or stars, etc.) Emphasizes Deco Mode which does very fancy printing but wouldn't be used in a standard business setting. Nice compact size so can be carried around easily. AC power supply is an optional accessory ($19) so may want to factor that into purchase, otherwise uses six AAA batteries. 194 of 198 people found the following review helpful  entry level brother p-touch system, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Brother PT1290 Home and Office Labeler (Office Product) I got this as a gift for my parents - they will probably not use all the fancy features like the graphics you can add with this laber. It comes with one cartridge so you may want to add a few more.My likes about the p-touch system: 1 - labels last a long time but not forever 2 - colors are available and easy to switch out 3 - conservative on the batteries 4 - compact and nice form factor like a typewriter but smaller - I have 2 other smaller P-touch labelers that go in my trucks for labeling cables and wires - very handy at times. 5 - added fancy graphics features on this model - my small ptouch system is only good for perhaps drawing a box around text, these get pretty fancy 6 - new label design has a split down the middle making removal of the new backing easier - prior labels were troublesome to remove the backing. I bought this for my dad who turned 75. If he can use it, I think most any age person can get more...

If you set margins to "Narrow" there is minimal space after the text but you still have 1" at the front so the text is not centered. The best way to save tape it to put it on "Chain Print" and print multiple labels at a time. Nonetheless, you still have to use a scissors to trim all the labels and that is a pain. |
