Brother QL-800 High-Speed Professional Printer, Plug & Label Feature, Genuine DK Pre-Sized, Multi-System Compatible – Black & Red Printing Available (Required USB Cable Included)

Excellent printer. Use them in our store for inventory marking. Runs well with ACCESS database generating barcodes on various versions of Windows. We have 7 of these printing different size labels in various locations in the store. Only had problems with one over a 5 year period. Super easy to set up and maintain. Occasionally use the red-black printing for name tags - never had a problem with the color printing. All printing is dark and sharp.

The printer itself is good—fast, reliable hardware, and the print quality is solid. Setup is straightforward, and the Plug & Label feature is a nice idea. However, the software is buggy and frustrating to use. Every time I try to print a label, I get an error saying “cannot print – Black/Red on white paper installed, change it to monochrome media.” Even when everything is set correctly. I contacted support, but they weren’t able to resolve the issue, which makes it even more disappointing. Overall, the hardware is great, but the software seriously holds it back.

Excellent label printer! I use it mainly for my business, to print UPC labels. The only fault I can find is with the P-Touch editor software. The software will not allow the printing of the entire label because of its margins settings, and it would be nice to be able to add additional barcode formats to the software, if that is an option I haven't learned how to do it yet. Both could be fixed with a software and firmware update. The ability to print labels in red is neat, and adds to the professional look of some labels, but I wouldn't call it a must-have feature. The ability to change label rolls and sizes quickly and easily is a great benefit.

The Brother QL-800 is an excellent label printer with outstanding print quality. Text comes out sharp and professional, and the printing speed is impressively fast—perfect for handling large volumes of labels. Setup was easy, and it’s very user-friendly. I especially like the option to print in both black and red, which makes labels stand out more. Overall, this printer has greatly improved my workflow and is highly recommended for business or office use.

I bought two new Brother label printers – a QL‑810Wc and a QL‑800 – expecting an upgrade from my old Dymo. Instead, both have been extremely frustrating to use. The hardware might be fine, but the software is a problem. For weeks, I kept trying to work with these printers, assuming I’d eventually figure out the software. I’ve spent far too long wrestling with P‑touch Editor and the Brother drivers just to print a simple label. The software is confusing, inconsistent, and full of hidden or greyed‑out options. Orientation, label sizes, and text layout never behave in a straightforward way. What should be a simple 5‑minute setup turned into repeated trial‑and‑error sessions that went nowhere. Because I kept thinking I’d solve it, my Amazon return windows recently closed, but I am not wasting another minute on these products. I am literally trashing both units and all the labels I bought for them and going back to a Dymo labeler that just works. If you value your time and need a label printer that’s actually usable, I strongly recommend avoiding the Brother QL‑810Wc and QL‑800.

The Brother QL-800 is versatile because of its software and diversity of labels available. I'm pleased with the quality of the labels, which have better longevity than the Dymo labels I'd previously used. My only disappointment after considerable use is the Brother QL-800 lacks an automated bar code addition for postal address labels, which my previous Dymo printer had.

The Brother QL-800 label printer has been working very well with our POS system, which actually recommends this brand and includes built-in label templates. Because of that integration, printing price tags and labels for the business is fast, consistent, and reliable. The printer hardware itself is excellent. It’s fast, prints clean labels, and has been dependable and compatible in daily use. Once set up through the POS, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do. My main issue was the Brother software when I initially tried using the printer directly with my computer. The software that needs to be downloaded is not very intuitive, and designing custom price tags or labels wasn’t as easy as it should be. The software could definitely benefit from updates and a more user-friendly interface. Another limitation is that I did not purchase the Wi-Fi version, so labels can only be printed when I’m physically at the business. That’s something buyers should consider if remote printing is important. Overall, this is a great label printer, especially when paired with a POS system. The hardware is solid, but the standalone software experience and lack of Wi-Fi (on this model) hold it back slightly.

Wonderful product I enjoy it. I love the diversity of this product however, I think brother should work on maybe condensing and simplifying their instruction manual a little bit, especially for us older people.

Excelente producto, muy buen precio, al parecer por los datos del vendedor es directo de fábrica vienen los datos de la fábrica en EU, super rápido que me llegó, me ahorró mucho tiempo y dinero, me arriesgué a comprarle a alguien sin comentarios y la verdad me generó mucha confianza, casa cambio de ubicación me avisaba

Works well

Der QL800 hat meinen alten QL500 nach etwa 4 Jahren abgelöst. Ich hatte auch schon vorher LabelPrinter von Zebra in Einsatz. Das Preis / Leistungsverhältnis ist hier aber Super und die Langlebigkeit des Vorgängermodels hat alle Erwartungen und Erfahrungen übertroffen. Bei dem QL800 erkennt man die Verbesserung des Gerätes selber direkt. Wobei die Druckgeschwindigkeit sich nur minimal verbessert hat, dafür aber ist aber das Handling und die Druckqualität merkbar gestiegen.

簡単に使えました。 宛名書きから開放されて楽になりました！ 書き間違い・読み間違えが減るので、荷主(自分)だけでなく、配達の人や、送付先にもメリットが有ると思っています。 発送業務以外でも、分類ラベルなどにも使えるので、小規模な業務においては必需品レベルなんじゃないかと思います。 日本語フォントも自由に選択でき、商用フォントもキレイに印刷できます。 （よくあるゴシックだけでなく、ヒラギノ丸ゴや筑紫明朝Aなどを使えば宛名のニュアンスを差別化できるので、簡易的なブランディングにも役立ちます。） 想像よりもコンパクトで場所を取らず、しっかりしている印象なので、好きなところに適当に設置できてしまいます。 付属ケーブルが長いのもナイスです。 印刷スピードなどにも不満は感じません。

1 st time it was working then stoped. 2 times i purchased in UAE but not working. When power connected smell and sound came.
