OMG, I’m in love with my newest little gadget 😘 Hey everyone I recently saw a report that Brother has upped its label maker game and created the Brother PT-P300BT aka the Brother P-touch Cube and it’s a game changer. The Cube is a bluetooth-enabled label printer that links with a smartphone app. You download the P-touch Design&Print app and use it to type and design your labels. (The app is available for Apple and Android phones.) Your phone communicates with the printer wirelessly via bluetooth. And it works like a charm. I had read about the Cube on a Sponsored Post by Staples Canada on Instagram and was intrigued, I didn’t see an immediate need to shell out $60 for a new label maker, but then I decided why not, ordered it online and it was delivered promptly! Here are a few of the features packed into the Cube and the Design&Print app: * It’s smaller than a traditional label maker (though at 4.6” x 4.6” x 2.5” it’s by no means tiny). * It uses regular TZ laminated tape cartridges (comes with a sample and I haven’t used it up) * There’s lots of flexibility in terms of designing the labels; the app has many frames and symbols. * The app comes with templates for attractive labels for typical uses (cords, flash drives, clothing bins, kitchen, for example). * You can use any font that your phone has available. * My family, friends, and team members can put the app on their phones and print to my printer (using my tape) when near the P-Touch * You dictate your labels like you dictate your texts! Is it perfect? Of course not. The CONS: * I wish it had a rechargeable battery (like my phone) rather than having to use a power adapter (sold separately) or batteries (it takes 6 AAA batteries, not included). * I wish it had an automatic label cutter. Instead I have to press down on the cutter between labels. NO BIG DEAL * I wish I didn’t have to pair my phone to the device each time I bring it out to use it, but hey most devices are like that.... * I wish it would default to one label to be printed so I didn’t have to touch the quantity each time, but I can handle it! #labelsfordays #labels #labelmaker #rollers #blends #portable #batteryoperated
