Brother P-Touch PTD220 Home/Office Everyday Label Maker | Prints TZe Label Tapes up to ~1/2 inch White

Functionality:This labeler does one or two line labels and has templates for frequently-used labelPrint quality:Excellent dark printEase of setup:Put in six AAA batteries; the compartment doesn't exactly show you how to orient them, but you'll figure it out.Quality:I haven't found a better labeler. I have had two of these, one is for me and one is for my BFF who keeps borrowing it, so I got this one for her.Value for money:It's not cheap--but it's one of those things you can't believe you lived without.What do I use it for?I label file folders. I label my flour containers (I have several types of baking flours and sugars.) I label the drawers for my art supplies.MOST USEFUL IDEA (I think) is to label the ac adapters and blocks that come with your electronics. Just today, I was locating my Chromebook which I don't use that often. The block in my "Cords and AC adapters box" was labeled "Chromebook" with my Brother labeler and did NOT look like the ones in the picture online (a trick to figure out which AC adapter belongs to some kind of item.) WHEN YOU GET IN any electronic item with an AC adapter or a block or a cable, make a label for it with this label maker, wrap it around the cord or stick it on the block.Another use: remotes. Label the remotes for the device they control. I also put battery information on the label "2 AAA" etc. Still another use; kids going to college, boarding school, camp. Label their stuff. While you can get an AC adapter for this, I tend to just use it on the batteries (6 AAA). The templates are really nice. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

I really like this label maker. It worked exactly as expected and was super easy to use right out of the box. Unlike some others I’ve tried, it didn’t jam or misfeed at all. Everything printed cleanly and evenly. The layout is intuitive and it feels solid for both home and office use. It was also a good price for the quality. I’ve labeled a bunch of files for the office and some bins around the house, and it handled everything with no issues. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a dependable and no fuss label maker.

Works Great, used it to label all my tools sizes. In black on yellow. Highly visible. Easy to peel and stick. You can make the number or letter big or small. People had mentioned that it wastes labels by leaving too much margin. But if you read the instructions you can change that so that the margin is smaller. Has lots of different Font that you can Choose from. The screen is easy to read with a little back lighting. But if your room is dark it’s difficult to see the screen. It’s a great little machine and works as intended.

This is the one! I am so happy with this label maker. It is easy to use, good quality and the size is perfect. I can see what people mean when they say the display is hard to read, but other than that is it perfect!

The Brother PTD-220 has a learning curve, mostly because of all the variations it offers, but not too complicated. I am having fun experimenting.It arrives with only one short sample tape, so don't forget to purchase tapes along with your purchase of the label maker, and If you don't want to constantly spend on batteries, I recommend getting a power adapter, too.After much research, the best price I found for it was here on Amazon, but I felt I needed to add the extras, which I am happy I got but they nearly doubled the price. I deducted one star from this review because I think Brother should include at least the power adapter & a couple of full size tapes in the box.The hard case I got (non-Brother brand) fits everything perfectly and is also very handy to keep things clean & protected & neatly stored when not in use.But most importantly, this is a nice, compact little tool that is easy to operate and very useful. I don't need to travel with it so I am happy with the plug-in model which saves me $$ in the long-run. With so many models to choose from, this one meets and exceeds my labeling needs! I would definitely recommend it as a 'bit-beyond-basic' model.

It gets the job done. Easy to use. Nice size to carry around. I bought the brother P-touch TZe-641 tape to use with it. I used the label maker at my job to label the paper sorting cases. You can change the font to different styles and size. You can change any setting on the label maker. The cutting lever cuts well. I like the product.

I’ve owned this label maker for 3 years now, so sorry for the late review. I’m happy to report that it has served me well. It still works great. The cartridge seems to last a long time. I’ve only changed it once but I don’t create that many labels either. It is intuitive to operate; one doesn’t need an engineering degree to figure out how it operates. I also own a Brother copier/scanner which has lasted me about 7 years and it still works great. Brother is a strong reliable brand. So for those reasons I give it 5 stars.

My favorite labelmaker of many over the years. I love that it will print multiples of a label, that makes it easier much of the time. It's also possible to set it up so it doesn't waste as much tape, unlike earlier editions. It takes a bit of trial and error. I also like simple easy to use things. All the bells and whistles just make it harder to use. It is smaller than the more complicated ones. The display is a little light is the only down, but the rest all adds up to five stars. I just got another for my office. I've had it for nine months and use it often. Never had a glitch.
