Brother PT-1290 Label Maker

For those that need to keep their office organized, Brother’s line of P-Touch Labeling Systems label makers are the best on the market today. They create high-quality labels that are durable, so you don’t have to keep creating new labels after the first one falls off. One of the best PT products is the PT-1290.

The PT-1290 is part of the Simply Stylish sub-line of P-Touch products. It is a perfect device for labeling in your home office or at work. It also features a sleek design that will not look out of place in any home decor.

It has a 15 character LCD display that is easier to read than the smaller displays used on other label makers. The keyboard is also designed in the classic typewriter style so you won’t have to get comfortable with a new set of keys. There is also a unique Auto Tape Detection system which will automatically recognize the size of the label tape cassette you are using. This way, you don’t have to go through the trouble of re-formatting labels to fit the size of the tape. It automatically adjusts the text to fit the tape you use.

Another neat feature is the “Deco Mode” key, which gives you easy access to pre-designed label formats that help you create decorative labels, including layouts with two rows of text. You can also use two different fonts, switching easily by just pressing a button.

You can use labels up to 12mm wide using durable, “TZ” laminated tape, which is great for both outdoor and indoor use. It uses 6 AAA batteries or an AC adapter.
