This label tape is easy to use from start to finish. It's easy to install, prints perfectly and peels easily. I have used it mostly for office labeling and home organization. I like the fact that if I don't place it properly on the first try, I can peel it up and place it again and it sticks just as well as the labels that have never been moved. I haven't tried that on paper yet, but if any tape could do it...this would probably be the one. The size is nice, too. It's large enough to make very easy to read labels or 2-line labels. All in all, I'm satisfied.

I cringe to be a complainer, however, the refill tape I bought for my label maker jams repeatedly. We have rethreaded the tape numerous times, but it still jams. (The original tape that came with the machine worked perfectly!) Love the machine--hate the refill tape. I am considering buying a new labelmaker with a different kind of tape, but feel I will be wasting the $$ spent on the original one. Sorry, but you asked!!!

Comments about Brother 1/2" Black on White 26.2Ft tape (M231):

Works Great. No problems peeling. It peels from the middle of label very easy. When I first bought it i tried peeling from edge and it doesn't peel like that. So if your having hard time peeling, maybe this is why. Cartridge is very easy to change.

Our company would be lost without our label maker, we use it for folder tabs, logbook labeling and anything else that needs a narrow label.

Comments about Brother 1/2" Black on White 26.2Ft tape (M231):

These are awesome. This is one of th the best organizing tools I have ever purchased. The cartridges are a little expensive at [$] a unit while the labeler is just [$]. worth it.

Works very well but is is very difficult to separate label material from backing. Would be better if there were intermittent splits on the backing

Label Maker Cheap, Label Refills Are Not

Comments about Brother 1/2" Black on White 26.2Ft tape (M231):

I bought this label maker on sale very cheap ([$]) and gave it a try. I do like how easy it is to figure out how to use it, and add the tape. I have found that it wastes a lot of tape while trying to get the right size length, even when choosing a pre-set. It also makes the size of text too small unless you clear all and not mess with any settings. Overall I do like the label maker, but the tape just does not last long enough and the cost of refills are not a good value for a small business. Perhaps it would be a better fit for personal home use.
