Should come with a pair of scissors
I have owned this product for two years and it never fails to irritate. Not only does it waste Brother's ridiculously expensive tape, but it also fails to automatically trim labels symmetrically on both sides. This means the user has to MANUALLY TRIM at least one side with a pair of scissors to center the text neatly on the label. Oh, and while I'm on the subject of the text . . . It's a pixelated, utilitarian sans serif stretched to awkward proportions by some of the various "size" settings on the machine. If you're considering this product, I would seriously recommend one of those old-fashioned embossing labelers instead.

Wasted Tape
The P-touch is capable of making labels, however, it's extremely frustrating to continue buying expensive tape for this label-maker, only to have to cut an inch of tape each time I print a label. I called the manufacturer in the hopes that I didn't set the machine properly but had an extremely frustrating conversation with their "customer service" representative who explained (not so patiently) that it is not a design flaw. The manufacturer intended for the machine to create an inch of lead in tape each time you print out a label. She acknowledged that they log calls EVERY day complaining about the wasted tape but insists they cannot do anything about it. Given the low cost of the machine, the real money-maker is in the cost of the tape itself so cutting off an inch of tape each time you use the machine tends to add up in wasted money. If I had known about this problem earlier, I would not have bought this machine.

It works well
my complaint is the cost of the Tz tapes and the amount of tape it waste on each print. I've gotten to the point I setup multiple labels to print all at once and then cut into individual labels. It would be nice to have an AC adapter for the unit included with the labeler and smaller font for 3 line printing but the print is excellent and there are enough options in the fonts and layouts. I rated it a 3 because of the amount of wasted tape and the cost of the tape itself. (Can you say OEM? :D)

font size stuck ridiculously small
Mine worked pretty well for about the first 50 labels that I made. Then the font size got stuck ridiculously small so that the message only covers about 10 percent of the tape surface. If you want really small labels with a hard-to-read font size, you could use my PT-1750 to print them out and then cut down with scissors to eliminate all of the wasted label area.

Wastes Tape, wastes tape, wastes tape!
This thing wastes so much tape it is ridiculous. Don't buy this or you'll be kicking yourself after you realize how much tape it wastes and the price of the tape.

The tape cassette gets messed up and can't be fixed.
I really loved this machine as stated in some other reviews. It was so great for so many labeling uses. However, at some point it started to eat the tape coming out of the cassette. Once it starts to do that to a cassette, there is no repair to it; the cassette is completely unusable. I have tried everything I can think of to fix cassettes that have started to do this. As so many have stated, the tape cassettes are really expensive. I have had this machine eat really new cassettes that I have just started to use, and at more than $20 per casette, that is way unacceptable. This is actually the SECOND machine of these that I have bought that has done this. I am going to ditch both of them and look for one by another maker.

great labeling system
easy to use; lots of options to "personalize" labels and cost is reasonable for what it can do

Poor quality control
The machine works great when it works. Unfortunately, I have had two models that needed repair - sigh. The first time the print head died. The second time the cutter was defective. Brother needs to a better job on their quality control. Also, I agree with others about too much wasted tape - a real scam since you need their expensive tapes.

Wasted tape is a big problem
It is obvious that Brother designed this labeler to waste tape. I bought the labeler because I wanted to implement the Getting Things Done System. I find the labeler useful but I am very annoyed that Brother made the labeler is such a way as to force people to buy as much of their tape as possible. The reviewer Rick Galati is completely wrong. There is always wasted tape no matter what adjustment you make and the wasted tape is usually substantial. There is absolutely no way to prevent the labeller from wasting tape. No matter what setting of the margins you use the labeler will always print out an margin on the left side. There is a margin setting called "NONE" but even this prints out a sizable margin on the left side. The worst thing though is that if you use the settings which reduce margins than you no longer have the text centered in the label. Instead there will be a margin on the left side but no margin on the right side. Thus you have to cut the tape in order to center the text which is a big hassle. In fact I just use the labeler with the margin settings set to "FULL" because I don't want to bother having to cut the tape myself. Brother could easily of made the labeller in such a way as to reduce the margins but they didn't. I can only include that they did this on purpose to get people to buy more tape. The tapes themselves are about 20 dollars.

Good capability, fair price
I was looking for an inexpensive, yet high quality, long lasting, and durable way to identify dozens upon dozens of electrical wires behind the instrument panel of my airplane. A fellow pilot made me aware of the family of small electronic labelers available in the marketplace. The Brother 1750 fits my needs perfectly. Offering two lines of crisp, highly readable print gives a professional appearance to all labeling needs. My experience is quite different than some reviewers who have complained about wasted tape. In fact, I found that little wasted tape is generated if you simply adjust the margins to a particular task and this option is clearly spelled out in the instruction booklet. Since I purchased the 1750, I have found many uses for it around the home office and I wonder how I got by without one in the past! My only complaint about the keyboard is that among the characters, it does not offer a dash or hyphen, so when one is required, I find myself using a star instead. That is a minor complaint though. The Brother 1750 gets considerable mileage on AA battery power alone, so I have not felt the need to purchase the adapter.
