Brother P-touch Design&Print 2 4+

For making basic labels, it’s great. You can make *really* decent labels very easily, with more options than I really anticipated (even with having done mild research).

It would be cool to have the option to get advanced options — like a computer connection or even just tracking/kerning/leading for designers or something, but I understand that’s asking a lot and it’s just a label maker. It would trouble anyone else accidentally tapping into it, but I am saying I would *pay* for that feature.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with it as-is — it’s a very cool label maker/app combo and I’d totally recommend it.

Great software easy to use, and lots of options, and I use it all the time, but it’s missing a few features I’m surprised about that would make usability much better.

1) Cannot modify the prebuilt templates outside of changing text and font type — would like to change icons or remove blocks or even rearrange them slightly. It’s more a form than a template. As it is, they’re not super useful and the home page is all about the mostly useless templates.

2) Prebuilt templates have rotated text, but cannot rotate text in custom labels. If I cannot modify a template, I should at least be able to recreate it.

3) Cannot add a QR outside prebuilt templates (or importing an image). Which would be fine if I could customize templates further.

4) Limited label color options. Includes only Brother official options, but not even all of them. I use orange and green with black text a lot, but I cannot set the colors to that. Color picker for those additional label colors would be great! Then brother doesn’t need to keep updating the database.

5) Saved Label organization could use help — sort by is only newest saved. Could use sort by name option, as well as ability to rename labels.

I’ve been using the Brother Design & Print 2 app for my label printing, and it’s been a game-changer! The app is user-friendly, and I love how easy it is to customize my designs directly from my phone. The seamless integration with my Brother label printer makes the whole process super convenient, especially when I need to create labels on the go. The wide range of templates and customization options gives me plenty of flexibility, whether I’m designing for home organization or business purposes. Overall, it’s a reliable and efficient app that I highly recommend for anyone with a Brother printer!
