Brother UK launches upgraded desktop label printer range

Brother UK has upgraded its P-touch desktop label printers, adding greater connectivity and flexibility across the range

The label printers are suited to home users through to larger offices and workplaces, and are designed to make organisation, personalisation, and identification quicker and more efficient for users.

With these new models added to this desktop range – the intermediate PT-D460BT, and the PT-D610BT for advanced labelling tasks – there is a printer designed to meet the needs of every user.

The upgrades to the range focus on greater connectivity, with the latest Bluetooth capabilities, while delivering expanded options for users creating labels through Brother’s free iPrint&Label mobile app. The new PT-D460BT model specifically also come equipped with PC connectivity, a notable upgrade from its previous model.

Aaron Hopkinson, product and solutions manager said: “We’re seeing significant growth in demand for professional labellers as more people are using the office within hybrid working models. Speaking to customers, it’s clear that workplace organisation is a challenge, especially following the explosion in flexible working arrangements.

“The upgraded range ensures we offer a solution to every labelling challenge, whether it’s identifying equipment and assets like headphones and laptops – an increasingly important way for IT leads to manage devices in hybrid environments – identifying storage containers in a workshop or warehouse, or tidying up cables in a home office, among countless others. The upgraded range enhances users’ ability to label anything easily from wherever they are.”

“With a three-year warranty as standard on all models and our usual ‘At your side’ support, we’re confident the new range will allow our reseller partners to meet all of their customers’ desktop labeller requirements, as well as to upsell the improved models to users of older units.”

Compatibility with iPrint&Label also unlocks higher levels of productivity and flexibility, enabling users to print ready-made templates anywhere using a smartphone.

All devices feature QWERTY keyboards and LED screens, making them easy to use as standalone devices too.

The new models are compatible with Brother’s hardwearing TZe tapes up to 18mm, allowing users to create long lasting labels, an advantage for all labelling applications but especially those in rugged environments such as warehouses or gyms. The range-topping PT-D610BT can print wider labels up to 24mm, which means more information, such as QR codes can be included, and larger text can be used.
