Brother P-Touch-E550W Hand-Held Labeler (UX0987),Black/orange

Having used Brother label makers for over 25 years, I can highly recommend them. As a matter of fact, I still own the original I bought and it works perfectly. It makes my employees' jobs so much easier. I recently bought the E550W and all the employees bought one. It used to be hard for me to work behind the television. Trying to figure out where everything went was a difficult process due to the vast amount of cables. Marking cables can also be done quickly by clicking the cable wrap and cable flag buttons. As a result, all power adapters and cables have been labeled with a description of what they belong to and to what they connect. A close look at the HDMI cable for the kids PS4 shows that it plugs into HDMI 4 port. There is a clear indication on the HDMI 4 port of the TV that it is plugged into the PlayStation 4. It is very convenient to be able to power cycle my DSL modem by looking at the power supply unit, since the power cable is labeled on the wall. With velcro straps, I can neatly organize my cables and I do not have to undo them to track down the cables. In addition to the serializer and database, it has some amazing features. Printing numbered copies of network cables is what I do when running them. There is a long circular strip that can be peeled off and you just have to choose which one It no longer takes several individual labels to find the label I need, and I no longer have to go through a pile of labels to find it. It's also awesome to have the option of using templates. It is possible to program a device id label with IP address, device name, router, etc. and then upload the template to Changing the name and IP address on the label maker itself is then possible once the template is selected. Labeling everything is easy with the device and it makes everything look very professional. I bring it inside the customer's location and they are all very impressed. These are just a few of the cons. Despite its size, the device is not very small. Having said that, I do wish it were a bit When changing colors and sizes of tape, the rechargeable battery falls out a lot, resulting in the device being shut off and having to be turned on again. There should either be a separate door for the battery or the battery should stay put better in the device. It would be great if you could use a standard USB charging adapter to charge your device. It would be great if the device could be configured to print in high resolution mode directly from the hand held device. A printer can only print in high quality when it is set at 300 dpi To manually select the settings on the computer, you must do so each time. Labeling with standard resolution is fine, but when it comes to printing out logos and pictures, there is a huge There was one employee who complained about the large size of the device, but a week later, he admitted it was the device he used from now on and that the documentation was much easier and that most customers compliment how well it performed.

The *br- This results in a lot of waste tape with excessive long peal tabs
This product may not last as long as it seems. With just one drop from waist level, the clear plastic piece on the back broke off. The *br- Battery cannot be charged over USB, and unit is not able to be charged outside of Working on site for long intervals at a time leaves little room for flexibility.
- This is a big one. The *br-

Needs to be copied into the program already

Pros +The ability to save Network Presets (patch panels, keystones, cable wraps) is really useful.

After testing this label maker and putting labels on a TV studio today, my impression of it is that it's extremely well built. The Rhino Dymo 5200 printer I had for several years was no longer printing correctly from having been left in the Texas heat. I bought this printer to replace that one. This is to say that I think Even when the E550W was working, it was far superior to the Rhino Dymo 5200. You can directly print from your phone via the direct wireless connection and from your PC via the wireless connection. As for the label tape options, it's great to be able to get 26 foot cassettes for around $10 on Amazon instead of Dymo ones which cost $18 for 18 feet. In contrast to the Rhino 5200 and 6000, the keyboard layout (Qwerty) makes sense. We really appreciate your dual cut option so that you can print a string of label tapes with just the backing intact and keep the label tapes sliced. I love the product. It has many great features. The people at Ptouch had our best interests in mind and created a great product for us!.

There is nothing bad to say about this After having several lower end label printers, I decided to invest in this beast. I have worked in IT for more than a decade and using the standard printers proved cumbersome. I found this printer was easy to operate and also printed labels for cables, switches, routers, etc. with no problem. The printer is great for standard labels in the office or at home, as well as having a small learning curve as you use it. It is also ideal for use in the classroom or by any home office. In addition to the Brother E550W, I own another industrial label printer which is also effective, but as I am using it more and more now, it is me who chooses it more often. This printer kit is something I would recommend. It makes organizing everything simpler since it includes a printer, battery pack, charger, and tapes. My only complaint about this printer is that there is a small amount of waste tape that is ejected in front of the finished label when you print it. Although I wish this could be adjusted, it is not something that will stop me from buying. In this printer, the display is incredibly easy to read and the build quality is excellent. My recommendation is to check it out. Due to the fact that I have yet to learn more about this printer, I gave it 4 stars at this time. As of yet, I have not worked on the wireless features. Thank you, Ted.

My laptop is connected to my laptop by cable or wifi so I can print any custom label I want. The customization options built into the tool are also very good. It is possible for me to save label projects, such as the typical patch panel configuration and the standard Unlike Brady, there is no extensive selection of label materials and the prices are not as expensive. The print will also take place on heat shrink tube!.

The price is a little high, but it is worth the money. This is the label maker you use most often for cable wrapping programs and The different types of labels we use were fairly simple to set up a menu for. In addition, lithium batteries are very good at holding their charge. Our label makers from Brother are several, but we usually only take this one on our jobs, plus a few tapes stored in the carrying case.

The label adhesive on this printer is excellent, and the printer itself is of very high quality. Over a month ago, I wrapped the flexible ID cable label around a cable UNDER WATER and it does not show any signs of delamination.
