From a buyer's seat

Our analysis from specs, price and published reviews. Not hands-on.

Built from Brother's product and label roll pages, checked Oct 9, 2026.

A 4 in wide USB label printer, so it takes full-size shipping labels. It costs $105 more than the QL-800 and prints fewer address labels per minute (69 vs 93).

Fits you if

  • You print 4 x 6 in or 4.07 x 6.4 in shipping labels

  • You want a cutter for one label or a whole batch

Skip it if

  • You need wireless or network printing: it lists USB and USB Host only
  • Your labels fit 2.4 in: the QL-800 is $124.99
