Brother P-Touch PT-1830 SUCKS!
* Worst label printer EVER! I bought it for my busiess to label file folders and it is TERRIBLE. It is designed to waste an INCREDIBLE amount of label tape. It is very difficult to get the output you want...again the primary design is to waste tape. Don't buy it! ...

* Love the PT-1830 Labeler ...
I purchased this labeler for the purpose of making 'permanent' labels to identify my flower varieties in my perennial flower garden. I have used the labels on many metal plant stakes in my flower garden and have not been disapointed with them. The labels stick well to the metal and the sun has not faded the letters. I haven't had any type of malfuntion problems with either the machine or the tape. I do remember the instruction book was a bit challenging, but it has been easy to use once I figured it out. My only 'complaint' is that it does use an 'excessive' amount of tape. There is an inch of blank tape at the beginning and at the end of each label.
Overall, I would buy this labeler again.

TERRIBLE TAPE, WORSE CUSTOMER SUPPORT
The documentation for the pt 1830 laminator is TERRIBLE and the TZ tape is WORSE - it (a) wrinkles (b) doesn't stick and (c) the lamination falls off almost instantly. One would expect 'laminated tape' to stay that way but this stuff doesn't.
Worst of all is Brothers lack of customer support -- their website doesn't allow one to send an email or a fax to try to rectify the situation. (There's a place to try, but it won't actually allow you to send anything).
Don't make the mistake I did: AVOID BUYING THIS (or any other Brother TZ product).

* Overpriced because it has no AC Cord ...
* I bought this and returned it when I discovered that the AC cord does not come with the unit. The AC \"adaptor\" will set you back about $25.00. Too bad, because this seemed like a nice unit when I took it out of the box, with its angled keys and clean face.
For $59.00, you can get a PT-1950, which has a cord and can be used with your computer USB. ...
