5 of 5 Very easy to setup and use 4/23/2010
from Waterbury, CT  
The unit has 2 modes, one that uses internal firmware and one that uses free downloadable driver and software. I downloaded the driver and software and really like the way this works. It essentially is a USB printer. The software gives the ability to use almost any font, size and style, and even images can be printed on the tape. What you see is what you get, so there is no wasted tape (except for an inch or so of leader).

5 of 5 The perfect portable label solution 12/24/2009
Lon from Rochester, NY  
Way more versatile than the stand-alone units! I use this with my netbook to print detailed multi-lined labels (with graphics) in the field. Easy to switch out cartridges when a different color is required and the battery-life has been awesome. The available full-featured software (free download - requires install) adds barcodes and host of other nice touches but the on-board no-install-required software is sufficient for most tasks. Excellent product and the price can not be beat. BUY.com delivery was fast (as usual).

5 of 5 Even prints Chinese characters! 9/20/2009
from MA  
Just received it and it works like a charm with the starter tape. I was even able to copy Chinese text into their labeling software and it could print them out just fine!

5 of 5 Truly simple label maker! 9/17/2009
Jayme from Pawtucket, RI  
Just like it states on the side of the device: FAST EASY SECURE! Nothing to install, so it even works on my office PC, which restricts me from adding any software or hardware.
