Professional label printers designed for any
labelling task
With a wide range of colours combinations and tape widths up to 36mm, near
borderless printing and high speed/high resolution print capabilities, these two label
printers are ideal for facilities management, document archiving, asset labelling and
creating on-demand labels whenever and wherever required.
Industrial label design software for PC and Mac
Both models use the free P-touch Editor label design software for Windows and Mac.
It boasts advanced features normally found in expensive desktop applications such as
industry standard 1D and 2D barcodes, import of logos and other graphics, and allows
you to use the fonts installed on your computer. Link to a Microsoft Excel® spreadsheet
or .csv file to print multiple labels quickly and efficiently.
Print from smartphones or tablets
Instantly create and print simple labels from your smartphone or tablet without needing to start
your PC. The Brother iPrint&Label app wirelessly connects to the printer to let you design and print
labels from your iOS or Android device. Or if you need to identify electrical and datacom cabling
and equipment, use the Brother Cable Label Tool app to print labels for wrapping around cables
or for sticking to faceplates, electrical distribution boards and other specialist equipment.
Include label printing as part of your solution
Software and app developers can use various software development kits for Microsoft Windows, iOS
and Android devices to enable label printing from within your own software and apps. This makes
these printers ideal to integrate into custom solutions, where durable labels are required.
Print wherever and whenever required
There are situations where AC power may not be available, such as on construction sites, or
if the label printer needs to be used on a portable trolley. Attach the optional battery base and
rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack to allow label printing wherever and whenever required.
Wireless connectivity for ultimate flexibility
Create and print labels from your smartphone or tablet quickly without needing to boot your PC or
Mac. The Brother iPrint&Label app connects wirelessly using Wi-Fi direct to let you design simple
labels on your iOS or Android device.
Or if you need to identify electrical and data cabling and equipment, use the specialised Brother
Cable Label Tool app to quickly print labels for wrapping around cables or for sticking to faceplates,
electrical distribution boards, cabinets, servers and other equipment. The PT-D800W can also be
connected to your office wireless network, and allow multiple users to print labels from their PC or
Mac whenever required.
Advanced cutter with easy-peel function
The advanced cutter can produce one long strip of labels that are easily peeled
one-at-a-time, and ensures your labels are kept in the correct order. Or each label can be fully
cut if required.
Print labels on demand without a PC
Ideal for the food, healthcare and laboratory markets, the optional Touch Panel Display Unit (for PT-
P950NW only) lets you print labels without a connection to a PC. Design your label(s) and upload to
the required location(s) indicated on the buttons. The user simply then needs to press the relevant
button to print that label, on demand. Furthermore, the built-in clock allows labels to include current
and future time/date - ideal for “Use By” or “Printed On” labels.
Offering the highest print speed and
print resolution in their class, the P T-
P900 series of professional label
printers produce durable labels up to
36mm in width. Print text, barcodes,
images and logos onto laminated,
durable labels that are suitable for
indoor or outdoor use, and last for
many years. Choose from wireless
and wired network connectivity,
and a range of optional accessories to
create a customised label printing
solution that suits your requirements.
Wired and wireless connectivity including
Bluetooth
These compact desktop label printers can be connected to your PC or
Mac using the integrated USB or Wi-Fi connections. The PT-P950NW can
also connect to your wired network thanks to its 10/100 Base-TX network
port, and an optional Bluetooth module allows it to easily connect directly
to rugged tablets, portable PC’s and to Bluetooth input devices such as
barcode scanners.
