  • High quality printing, affordable generic supplies available & user friendly!
Style: New Pattern Name: QL1100 Has USB Host
This printer has been a lifesaver! I can print multiple shipping labels super quick, all at once, and it cuts between each one automatically. I also use the smaller 2.4” wide label to print product labels. The reason I hated printing labels with my laser printer is because the ink would smear, I would have to tape over the label to protect the barcodes, which defeated the purpose of printing on a label in the first place. I used so much packaging tape (and time!!). Sure the labels from Brother are expensive, just buy the generic ones! All you have to do is look for ones that are compatible with this device (I bought BETCKEY brand and I don’t see a difference). I bought TEN rolls of 4” wide continuous rolls for 4x6” shipping labels, and after 3 months and MANY labels printed, I still have some left on the first roll! Buying 10 rolls at once cut the individual roll price in half, so I figured I could resell some if I wasn’t going through them quickly. I also don’t understand why other customers had issues with printing. I first downloaded the driver directly from Brother’s website. I select the option on eBay and Etsy to print 4x6 labels in PDF form. After I purchase the labels, the PDF opens or downloads, I plug in the usb cord to my laptop, click print and make sure to select the right printer and size of labels (with the Brother sample labels it came with, I had to select something like 4.06” wide, whatever it was it was slightly over the 4x6, because it wouldn’t print with the 4x6 option selected. It would say the size of labels in the printer and what was selected didn't match. When I switched to the generic, it wouldn’t print with the same setting and I found I just had to go back to 4x6. If you get the message that the size doesn't match, but pick some other similar sizes until it does). I’ve even made my own custom labels with Microsoft Word for the 2.4” wide labels. I just set up the size in page setup and plug and print. Super simple. The printing is dark, super clear, excellent quality. And no smearing! And no having to buy ink or toner. Occasionally the blade starts not cutting all the way through, but that's the only problem I've had. This little printer was definitely worth the money and then some. I save so much time buying my labels in bulk, hitting print once, having each print and cut SUPER fast, and just peel & slap them on the envelope. If you do a decent amount of online selling and find yourself spending a lot of time trying to fulfill orders, I recommend you get this printer. You’ll thank me! Update: About one year later and this printer is still going strong with no issues! ... show more

  • Works with Etsy & Pirateship, and Generic Label (Confirmed & linked)
Style: New Pattern Name: QL1100 Has USB Host
I have always loved Brother products, especially since their monochrome printer 5340D that I bought here on Amazon in 2009 is still going strong! This does not disappoint! It is not plug and play though (always read directions first! lol). Here is a few things I learned to help someone else doing this for the first time. I am so glad I purchased this. saves me so much time from printing, cutting out label and then taping it on for my little craft business! I had troubles feeding the paper this being my first label make. When you open the top and put the paper roll through, you will see on the right hand side a white sticker with a yellow triangle with 2 gears printed on top of a rectangular plastic piece, you need to feed the paper underneath this! I had it going over and when I tried printing it would not work. Hope this helps someone! The other issue I had was which things to download (step #3 below) In the manual is the website to go to install.brother, and do this: Step 1: Product categories click "compact label printer," Step 2: Click your operating system and verison (64 bit etc), Step 3: Here is where I got confused. On this page, there is (4 selections: a. Software/Document Installer b. drivers c. editor tool d. firmware). All you need to do is download the first one a. Software/Document installer. This will install all 4 sections (a, b, c, d) at one time for you. The only scenarios you need the others is if something does not go right and you need to say reinstall drivers then you would download b. drivers only. Or if software is not working right you can reinstall c. editor tool. I am sure most people will not have any issues, as even my issues with minor, I had it up in running in no time. Text is clear, I love that it cuts the labels for you. It comes with labels to start you off, 2 different sizes. I bought these labels (Edit: Confirmed they work, with some instructions below- I have not found any other label yet to work with these) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H1CGLIE/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 You do need to adjust the paper size for these labels for Etsy & Pirateship. Go into control panel --> Hardware & Sound --> Devices And Printers, then right click on Brother QL-1100, then click on printer properties (not just properties), then on General tab, go to bottom and click on preferences, paper size drop down menu click on 4X6 label in the drop down box. Hope this helps :) ... show more

  • Lasted 10K Labels
Style: New Pattern Name: QL1100 Has USB Host
This is an above average in quality thermal label printer. There is one major drawback to this QL1100, is that that you are recommended to buy their name brand labels— because they’re different from other labels. So do not think that you can just buy a generic label and use it with this machine, you cannot. So that is the first drawback. The second drawback is that this lasted at me about 10,000 labels. I don’t think that is a good life for this item. The cutter has seem to become misaligned and will not allow the labele to thread, rendering it unusable. I will be contacting Support to see how much they will charge to repair the item. Because you buy this item from Amazon, there seems to be an issue with the warranty being honored if at all. So do you consider that also and investigate. The failure that my printer has seems to be common with this model. I have some zebra printers that were cast offs from UPS, so you could imagine they probably did 10,000 labels in a month and they’re still going. I don’t like it that electronics and plastics are put into the environment at a rapid pace like this as trash. For the amount of money that I paid for this, it should’ve lasted much much longer. When it was performing, it did very well. But the expense of item, along with the cost of the proprietary label it requires. I cannot say that I recommend this item. ... show more
