Bumpā¦ Itās bottle washing day and I have some important knowledge to share. My last go round ordering blank labels I splurged and bought the Dymo-brand (factory) labels. After many months ā¦with a quick blow-dryering, they peeled right off with zero residue ā¦and with ease. They didnāt just come off cold, but once I warmed em up for 10 seconds they came easily off whole. I winced thinking of all the pennies I tried to save over the years and the HOURS of additional time I spent removing gummy residue from glass and plastic. So next time youāre ordering raw labels, treat yourself ā¦it went from horror story Dread to easy-breezy ā¦duh :facepalm:

What size tape do you buy ???

They use the same tape as my PT-1230PC
(which uses TZe)
I switched to using the desktop version because of the really nice software that Brother provides. (it also enables the ability to use logos, Iāve used several for single flavor mixes: FA, Inawera, etc)
I prefer the 12mm, 0.47", laminated, White tape. Itās black letters on a white background, and being laminated means that if liquid runs down the outside of the bottle, the label maintains integrity (doesnāt smear/run/etc).
TZE231
Black Print on White Laminated Tape for P-touch Label Maker, 12mm (0.47ā) wide x 8m (26.2ā) long
I typically reserve these labels for persistent mixes. The āone-offsā, testers, or infrequent mixes still get the old āpost-it and rubber bandā treatment. chuckles

I have the PTH110 which uses the same tape cartridge. I use the laminated tape also and itās perfect. Iāve never had a label peel off by itself, no smearing if wet and peels off clean when you want it off. A great little printer for 10 bucks.
BTW, almost all the lower end label printers by Brother come as battery operated with an optional AC walwart. Iāve used the same rechargable AAA batteries (Amazon brand) for the past 1.5 years without recharging. Might be about time to charge them up.

Iāve had a PT-85 (the weenie version of your fancee ones) for years and no issues. Those labels go on, stay on, and last a long time. Parting gift from a long previous employer.

I love WIFI label printing, B and W, sharp, and extremely fast. For MY uses, labels added extra cost and hassle, moved to the endless spool of tape (labels), and never looked back.
