When I bought my Brother label maker, I bought two extra cartridges because I knew I'd be using it alot. Well its been almost six months, and I use the labeler every other day for something, and the cartridge that came in the labeler is still going strong. I've had no problems with running out or the labels not sticking. The only problem I have had was when I try to take the paper backing off of the label...maybe Brother could devise an easier way for a guy with no fingernails to get the backing off easier.

We bought one of these labelers. The first surprise came as we started to use it. As has been noted at length by another reviewer on this page, these labelers are designed to waste the tape. OK, we thought. Whatever.
Then, when the tape ran out, we purchased more via Amazon. Wow, these refills are unreasonably expensive! Brother clearly has a "give away the razors and sell the blades" philosophy, seemingly making all of their money on the tape. But we bought it anyway, cause what else were we going to do? We were stuck.
We got the tape, inserted it correctly. But the cartridge was faulty and it unraveled on the second label. Irreperable. So we called Brother and -- guess what -- the tapes have NO WARRANTY!!
So, unless you are in the mood to give Brother a *blank check* for your labeling needs, don't get into bed with them. They will leave you angry and wanting.

I needed a label maker for a job at work, and this one was on sale. I used it, I like it, and I would recommend it. The only drawback is the price of the tape. It is a bit steep, but not prohibitive. I used all of the cartridge that came with the unit, and a part of a new, full cartridge, and I had no problems at all.

The tape works fine; it s little pricey but when I catch it at a good price I buy enough to last a while. I label just about anything and everything.

This stuff is great. My wife and I use it to label things we don't use often so we can tell at a glance what is in a box or what a bottle contains. It goes into the labeler without a fuss and works the first time every time. The glue on the back (once the backing is peeled) requires the the surface be dirt and oil free or it will eventually come off. The printing will "wear off" if you are using it in a high friction environment such as on a book in a backpack. However, it lasts long enough that whatever it is on becomes habit and the label is no longer necessary.
BTW, if I did not have fingernails, I could not peel the backing off without using a large paperclip. There ought to be suggestions from Brother about the best way to get the backing started off the label.
