Brother P-Touch Label Maker, PTD220, Thermal, Inkless Printer for Home & Office, Portable & Lightweight, QWERTY Keyboard, One-Touch Keys & 25 Pre-Set Label Templates Label Memory (Renewed Premium)

Super simple to use, good adhesive to the labels, good quality print. I like that I do not need an app or subscription for something like this. Right priced for the quality and good design for quick typing and printing.

First one I got wasn’t good. Sent it back and got another. This one worked well. I think the product works well and it’s made organization and labeling much easier. What I dislike is the lack of cute ones available for the USA. They had one that is hello kitty themed but it’s in Japanese. You can choose English but honestly it seems like a hassle if you press the wrong button and suddenly have a bunch of characters you don’t understand 😅 I like that this one is white and it’s easy to apply cute stickers to theme it ourselves. But it still doesn’t beat the cute hello kitty themed ones out there 😔 I mean why have basic when you can choose cute? Or other themes. It makes it more fun and pretty to lay around.Other than that it has cute symbols to make your labels less boring and different fonts/sizing.

From Brother.com - here is what I found out about the screen.Adjust the LCD contrast!To adjust the LCD contrast:1. Adjust the contrast setting:a. Press Menu.b. Press ◄ or ► to select LCD Contrast.c. Press OK and the current setting is displayed.d. Press ◄ or ► to select the contrast setting. There are five settings: -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.e. Press OK to set the contrast.- If the LCD is difficult to read, go to the next step.2. Since the label printer does not have a backlight, the angle of the label printer and the lighting conditions can affect how well the display can be viewed. For optimum viewing, place the label printer on a flat surface and view the display at a 45-degree angle.3. New out of the box label printers have a protective film on the display that needs to be removed. Removing the film slightly improves the display's contrast and brightness.a. Using your fingertips or fingernails, separate the protective film from the LCD display from the top right or left corner.b. Pull the Mylar protective film completely away from the display to expose the smooth finished surface. Discard the protective film.3. If the contrast was better but now it is harder to read, try printing a label to test if the batteries are low. The LCD can be difficult to read when the batteries are low.4. If the LCD is still difficult to read with brand new batteries, you may wish to purchase a label printer with a backlight LCD.So, for me it was first, remove the mylar tape on the screen. I did not notice that there was something on the screen itself. Then I followed up with the LCD contrast and it made a big difference. I wish I had purchased one with a backlight screen but did not realize that was an option. All in all, I will say that this is a nice label printer.

Labeler that works well and is very easy to use. This is my second time buying this type of labeler, I moved and packed my first one, it’s in box purgatory somewhere so I bought a new one because I just love how easy this is to use. Tap the buttons and hit print, it’s that easy. The labels are even waterproof I labeled my plastic containers to organize my closet and when I need to I put them in the dishwasher with labels attached they come out labels still attached. Eventually they may come off but they stay on for a while. Love this product.

The unit arrived quickly and in good condition. It works well and is easy to operate but the screen is so darn hard to read! I've been getting better at sizing the labels more accurately to save on tape. That said the tape is "fussy" to peel off and expose the adhesive and the labels curl up immediately after pulling off the backing and gets stuck together. It works fine for my purposes making only a few labels at a time but if you need to make lots of labels this is not the unit for you.

This is the this one we have gotten for our company. We love that we can do designs, fonts, all of the choices. If you have any doubts about buying it, don't. It is perfect. Just wish it came with a charger.
