a) Due to the construction of the tape cassettes, arises before each label an unused band drop what ever gives 50% decrease of the expensive tape with short labels.
After all, by the automatic cutting unit that automatically cut off, but in the long way to do this if you specifically individual, short labels printed as early as the money ... For larger label series (multiple print) this falls not so significant since waste is only 1x .. ,
b) It may only be 18mm high printed on 24mm tape for example, so that the bandwidth can never be fully utilized.
Generally no borderless printing is possible ...
c) print quality, especially resolution:
Of the 180dpi we must unfortunately - especially when you create labels with extensive graphics and logos on the PC - not expect too much.
But otherwise I can not really say what the printer bad.
Price / performance definitely very good!
Installation, setup problems under WinXP.
Software (s) easy to use.
Reliable fast print.
