Labeling various items (document folders, store goods, office supplies, food trays in cafes, electronic components and wires) with labels and stickers noticeably streamlines their storage. But making handwritten stickers can be very time consuming. If you want to automate this process, you should consider reviewing Brother Label and Label Printers.
Peculiarities
Brother was founded in Nagoya, Japan in 1908 . and was originally engaged in the repair and manufacture of sewing machines. In 1961 the assortment of the company was supplemented with typewriters, and in 1971 the company created the famous M-101 dot matrix printer. Since then, various printers and MFPs for household and industrial use have become the backbone of the company's business.
Brother today is a multinational corporation with a turnover of about $ 4 billion a year.
The main differences between Brother printers for printing labels and stickers from analogues:
- print quality and speed - all thermal printers of the Japanese company compare favorably with the majority of counterparts in high-performance printing with high resolution;
- reliability - Brother thermal transfer printer breaks down much less often than analogues;
- affordable service and availability of consumables - in the Russian Federation there is a full-fledged representative office of the company and about 200 certified SCs, and consumables for its thermal printers are easy to find in free sale.
The main disadvantage of Japanese label printers is their high cost relative to their Chinese counterparts

Secrets of choice
Consider the main criteria that need to be considered when choosing.
Performance
The category of the printer depends on its cost and the speed of printing labels on it:
- mobile devices print up to 100 labels a day and are designed for field work;
- desktop appliances can print up to 3 thousand stickers per day;
- semi-professional solutions handle 30 thousand copies daily;
- industrial printers are capable of printing more than 100 thousand labels in 1 work shift.
Belt width
In width, the ribbons used for printing are:
- narrow - from 6 to 18 mm;
- average - from 19 to 36 mm;
- broad - from 37 to 241 mm.
Data input
Different models may combine the following methods of obtaining information:
- manual input (in such models, it is important to pay attention to the capabilities of the built-in editor, for example, whether it supports changing the font and different templates);
- USB input;
- Ethernet connection to the local network;
- Wi-Fi.
Useful options
It is worth considering the presence of some functions in the printer
- Guillotine - separates printed labels from other tape. Knifeless printers require expensive perforated ribbons.
- Video clip rewind tape.
- Separator - if you are going to apply the label immediately after printing, purchase models with this option. If you are interested in printing large editions, then buy a device without a separator.
- RFID module - Allows, simultaneously with printing the label, to write information on the transponder (mini-chip) built into it.
