Great all around label maker. Pros. Can be battery operated or use a power supply. Does not have to be connected to the PC but can be. Cons: Wish that it had Linux support (Ubuntu) as well as software for use in Ubuntu. Hardware makers really need to start embracing linux.

Through a computer you can make great customizable labels and then there’s the simplicity of just using the labeler as a standalone

I love this labeler, and I have tried several, this is by far the best labeler that I have ever used. It is very user friendly, it has numerous additional functions and can label a variety of products. The ability to connect it to your computer is a huge plus which gives it some added features. I use it to label allot of my hobby items. This is hands down worth the money, even though it is a little on the pricey side.

As an organizational maniac, I’ve labeled EVERYTHING my entire life. Purchases have place, date and price, along with receipt attached to manuals. Personal information such as finances, correspondence, work files, are all carefully labeled. While others may make fun of my OCD, I can put my fingers in just about any information I need to pull up almost instantly. Unfortunately, arthritis has taken its toll and my penmanship is not what it used to be. This is so perfect for my needs! Having an eye for graphics, the software program lets me design my labels exactly as I want them to look. Because if this I’ve never actually used the templates provided. I did try making labels from the printer itself but was frustrated during the process, so I always use the program and design on my PC. and when you get a label exactly the way you want, simply save it and open it up the next time you need it.

This is a GREAT label maker. Easy to set up, easy to use, makes perfect labels. I save several presets on my desktop and use the machine every week. Really helps with organizing everything.

With the p-touch software downloaded it does exactly what i want it to, it’s easy, and the labels look great.

I wanted the ability to create label sets and reprint as often as needed without having to recreate. This printer was easy to setup and the software is very helpful.

My label-maker is an essential part of my busy life, with 2 businesses and trying to keep everything organized. I use it for everything from file labels to cabinet labels, to warnings about what appliances will blow fuses if turned on at the same time.

Lots of fun, and many practical uses. But even after reading the manual there’s a lot of kind poking around to get what you want.

It’s great that it can do graphics in addition to text – I was able to mass-produce labels that went far beyond basic text.

I’ve owned a couple of other label printers in the past and the Brother PT-D600 beats them all hands down, no doubt. I love being able to link directly to the computer, but I need to get more experience with the software. The software is not as intuitive as I would like it to be. I have trouble sizing the label and getting the text centered so as not to cut off either the first few letters or clipping the last few letters of the label. It usually takes me a couple of tries to get it right. But, this problem is probably “just me” and not the machine or the software. The quality of the label itself is the best I’ve seen. I’d recommend this to anyone and will probably buy at least two more as family gifts. I use this printer as a personal home label printer and not for a business.

Purchased unit, on initial power up video was horizontally striped. Tried using unit however stripping created eye discomfort. Features very similar to PT2700 that is 15 years older, expected improvements in interface and functionality, little discernable differences

I really like it my only problem is printing serial label it is kind of hard

Works great with a MacBook Pro. It would be better if it would work with Linux Mint

I have a number of older Brother labelers and love them – PT1800 and PT1900 series mostly. This new machine is a major step backwards. It won’t take any of my older TZ tapes, simple things are either much harder to do or are impossible to figure out, everything takes more key presses. The color “graphical” screen isn’t anything more than eye candy – I can’t see any real benefit. Please bring back the PT1900 for those of us that just need to get work done!

I have only used it connected to my computer and it has been very easy to choose a label style, create the label, and print. It has worked flawlessly. Like other Brother printers I have used, it has the annoying habit of wasting a small piece of tape before it prints each label, but I have learned to live with that.

I purchased this label maker for use in my home office. It has a good breadth of versatility for width, length, ability to print as a stand alone label maker, or in conjunction with a computer. Fairly priced, and robustly built. I would definitely recommend this unit.

Upgraded from Windows 10 64bit to Windows 11 and now my PTD600 Label Printer will not work. I continuously get USB error messages and Brother has done nothing to issue a printer driver specifically for Windows 11.

I use the very basic. Some of the instructions are not clear enough to apply. I’m not very good with computers and most of it is Greek to me.
