Comments about Brother PT-1230PC PC Connectable Label Maker:
I am so used to the big clunky labelers that are such a pain to load and type, but this has been such a great change! I just started making different canned foods so I use it for that, as well as a side farming business to label my products and packaging and it's wonderful! Eventually I will upgrade to fancier labels for the farming stuff but for now this is perfect, and I will always use it for household labeling I'm sure! So easy to use and so compact, it's great!
