BROTHERPT-P950NW

I had a P750wvp but had to donate it to another department so needed a replacement, I print stencils for metal etching so my options were rather limited. I don't typically need larger labels than the P750 can print but since I was buying a replacement and I was going to bill it to to the other department I decided to get the larger P950NW. So far everything has worked as good as my P750, actually better. I had a lot of problems getting the stencil tapes to work but they have been working great on this. The only problem I have that I have with all Brother label printers is the lead in and lead out, they use a lot of extra tape. I know the cutter is about an inch away from the print head but it's only an inch so maybe they could find a way to retract that inch after cutting.Other than that one thing, it works exactly the way I needed it to.

仕事での使用のために購入しました。製品は印刷スピードも早く、使用状況自体には満足していたのですがサポートセンターに電話しても中途半端な回答しか得られず本来の目的とは違った使い方をすることになってしまいました。もうすこし手厚いサポートが受けられると総合でも星5になるかと思います。

Brother told me this could use TZ tapes. It will NOT. Brother no longer makes a TZ tape printer. So if your TZ machine breaks down your library of TZ tapes becomes useless unless you can find a used machine. The TZe tape case is different. It has holes to allow pins to stick through the case where the TZ tape does not have these. I attempted to drill all the correct holes in one of my TZ tapes to see if it might still print the tape. Even though I was able to get the tape into the machine there must be some other niche that identifies the tape because the machine complained that it was not the proper tape and would not attempt to print.Brother does not care since they state that their tapes are only good for 15 months. So if your tape malfunctions or the glue does not work after 15 months Brother says it is not their problem.I only occasionally use these tapes but for a wide variety of uses. So I have over 30 TZ tapes. Some of them are 5-6 years old and still print and stick as well as the new TZe tapes. Not happy with Brother for not giving people like me any other option for a new machine.

前機種の方が細かい印字が鮮明に出来たがこの機種は駄目ですね。印字速度は速くなったけどメリットは感じない。36ｍｍサイズの印字幅が広くなった点は良いと思う。ブラザーのラベルプリンターは必ず2年程度で壊れているので購入価格からすると割高ですね。

Well, I am an IT person and have the know how to set this type of things up. This machine is perfect. I look forward to using it for many years to come. I like things organized and neat. Hopefully this gadget with help me mitigate some of the chaos and bring about some order is a stylish manner. I am not selling or advertising and have nothing to do with the seller or the company.
