I want to give it 5 stars... but I can't! June 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love this item--it is quick, easy to use and inexpensive. It makes beautiful labels as well which are incredibly useful. The issue has been that it gobbles batteries at an alarming rate! When I read the reviews, I figured I wouldn't be using it *that* much and that the folks who mentioned battery life were probably using it a lot more than I would. Well, I use it pretty darn sparingly (I think I've printed 20 labels total) and, I kid you not, I've been through 8 triple A batteries in owning it for 3 months or so! Not only does that make it expensive, it makes it a pain because you have to keep buying batteries (or invest in rechargeables which are not cheap). Why? All because it DOES NOT have an AC adapter port! If it had such a port, even if it didn't come with an adapter, I would rate it 5 stars. As it is, you have a great device with a serious power issue. 3 stars is the best I can do. If you are using this at home, get one of the other models with an adapter---this way the only consumable is the tape.
Fast shipping June 19, 2008 Great product. The only thing is that I cannot change the language. Maybe defective. Still need to check.
Perfect Little Labeler May 31, 2008 I dont use this Labeler for anything too sophisticated, If all you need is something labeled, short, simple, to the point this will do it. I use it to label various small items with my name, and to label little drawer organizers, and file labels. There are some symbols I wish it had that it doesnt, but they are pretty uncommon anyway and nothing a little abbreviating cant solve. It might do some extra stuff, I dont know but ive had it for quite awhile now and it is great, its very durable, the labels are easy to find, and if you ask me, the price is very reasonable (on amazon.com.
Good basic labeller May 27, 2008 I found it to be very simple to use and it creates nice-looking labels. The only downside is that it does seem to go through batteries fairly quickly, but I use rechargeable batteries so it's not too bad.
Battery Issue May 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I see now that other people have had this same issue. $29 is a good price until you have to figure in $5 every other month for batteries. I use the PT-80 to make 5-10 labels a month and I continue to get the battery message. The PT-80 actually stops printing and feeding even though the measured voltage on the 1.5vdc batteries is 1.52-1.54vdc. Brand new batteries, they measure 1.59vdc, still get the battery message after printing 5 tapes.
