" ...  I tried more expensive Brother label makers but this printer was half the price and can be used for other printing needs too.  ...  "
comment

" ...  The ink cartridges are standard capacity and not test-fill (meant to last basically through the installation) as some printers have.  ...  "
comment
" ...  *update* The printer still functions fine: the issue is the ink. ... I have never had a printer go through ink so quickly: considering the ink is the same price as the printer (and you need two cartridges: black and color) you are almost better off buying a new printer every time it runs low on ink, which is often. ... I miss my old HP printer. ... For a $30 printer (with ink included) I'm happy.  ...  "
comment
" ...  Printer is OK for everyday needs BUT it's cheaper to replace the printer than buy the ink.  ...  "

comment
" ...  While it worked for some months, it pulls multiple pages when printing, causing jamming, and broke down completely less than 1.5 years after purchase.  ...  "
