I printed out labels using a Brother P-Touch PT-2030 and the DYMO LabelManager 160 and these were the results of my findings: As of the time of this writing, the DYMO 1/2" D-1 label roll is selling for $14 and includes 23 feet (276 inches) of label. As of the time of this writing, the Brother 1/2" P-Touch label roll is selling for $11 and includes 26.2 feet (314 inches) of label. I printed two labels that had this text in 24pt BOLD "TEST-XX-01". The DYMO label that was printed including wasted space on both sides was 2.75" in length which would allow 100 labels to be printed on a $14 roll. *** $0.14 per label. The Brother label that was printed including wasted space on both sides was 4" in length which would allow 78 labels to be printed on the $11 roll. *** $0.14 per label. *** TIE ***. I printed two labels that had this text in 24pt BOLD "255.255.255.255". The DYMO label that was printed including wasted space on both sides was 3.375" (3 3/8") in length which would allow 81 labels on $14 roll. *** $0.17 per label. The Brother label that was printed including wasted space on both sides was 4.5" in length which would allow 69 labels on a $11 roll. *** $0.16 per label. *** BROTHER WINS ***. The DYMO would win with smaller labels, it seems that my first label tested is about the tie breaker in size. Bottom line: If you print SMALL labels, you will get more for your money using a DYMO label printer with less waste per label. If you print larger labels, you will get more for your money using a BROTHER label printer even though it waste more per label. The DYMO generally prints more labels per roll than the brother, even though there is less label per cart, however the Brother label is cheaper at this time."
"It's the perfect size. It prints super clear. It has a button for clip art designs and pictures! It can write multiple lines on a single strip! Just grab this and a 2 pack of 23 foot long rolls and you'll love the thing! The tape cutter is very smooth and comes out from the top instead of the sides like other label makers!"
"I love labeling things and was so happy to receive this label maker."
"This is the only new Dymo labeler I could find that used that same cartridge, so I bought it and it's actually pretty cool! And you print right from the computer!"
"It does the job, and as an added bonus, it's actually easy to peel the backing off. The labeler is fun to use and comes with a rechargeable battery."
"Why did no one mention it requires a power adapter sold separately (mentioned in a blip) or a bunch of AAA batteries?"

"Merely select your label and then the software displays the label for you to type on. I could not get MS Access to see the printer to print a label directly from the program, so was obliged to re-type the label itself. I am including with this review a photo of the finished labels, a screenshot of the Dyno Tab it puts on MS Word, and a screenshot of the program they install with it to create & print a label."
"I seem to print lots of labels -- addresses, especially at the holidays, and file folder labels, mostly."
"I already had the Dymo software on my computer, and it recognized the printer seconds after I plugged in the USB cable."
"If not because I already had the predecessor to this model, I would have been upset not to receive the cable as it was not notified in any of the writings for the product."
"My only complaint is that the software is made for windows 8 or earlier."
"I think I've got it loaded right because the feeder button ^ sends the labels back and forth until their positioned correctly to print at the beginning of the label. The second problem is that the labels aren't centered correctly on their backing so the printing of the label isn't centered either."
"This box was opened, the bubble back replaced on the printer, the UBS cable missing."
