Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

While the printer works fine and is priced right the overuse of tape is inexcusable. Basically it leaves a huge space before the printing and a huge space after - this has 3 effects 1) more than doubles to triples your tape usage which costs more $$$ to use (also lines Mr Brother's pockets) 2) means that you have to go back afterwards with scissors and cut the label so that it is not ridiculously large - this is a big waste of time and means that if you are walking around making labels (as I do) you must carry scissors 3) If you believe that we live in a world of scarce resources, isn't this just plain wasteful?
