 Does what's claimed it will do, and does it well. November 18, 2008
Ransom Park (Ransom Park, TX USA)
I would never have paid the full price for this labeler, but when Amazon offered it for around thirty bucks, I couldn't pass it up. I don't believe the software (for using the printer with a computer) is rated for Windows Vista, but it's supposed to work with everything below that. You have to provide the USB cable. I believe this printer was mainly designed to sell a lot of tape cartridges for Brother. The default setting has rediculously wide margins before and after a label's text. Even if you narrow the margins, or select "none", the leading edge still has nearly an inch of tape that you must cut off (it prints a mark to show you where). So, at the very least, you'll waste about an inch of tape for every label you make. The cartridges aren't cheap (about $11 and up). They're nice in the fact that you can change the cartridges out before they're empty. This means you can put different widths of tape in for different applications with no trouble or other waste. Changing the cartridge is simple. Each label is printed, cut, and ejected when you're done. It's expensive to operate, but if you can get one dirt cheap like I did, it's kind of worth it.
 Great product! November 17, 2008

This is a wonderful labeller. Very good quality and nice software.
Software and drivers were easy to install. Seriously, it's a very good product and a good buy.

Web Designer Hobbyist (Tarpon Springs, FL)
The P-touch PT-1950 from Brother has performed as expected and the little advertised fact that it can be controlled from your PC is the greatest feature. The software is so easy to use that I have not used the labeler's keyboard since I received the machine. This is an excellent value for a minimum outlay.

This product works great with the computer. Easy to type using different fonts and tape selection is great also.
A very good deal in my books.
Couldn't believe the price and free shipping November 12, 2008

Always wanted one and at the low price and free shipping I can't believe I didn't buy more than one.
