Brother VC500W Colour Label Printer is rated 3.0 out of 5 by 134.
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Great for basic tasks. Not enough on labels I am the owner of the TexasBeardsman.com, and this is a perfect option if you are looking into getting mock-ups of your product idea. However, they fall short when it comes to label sizes. I needed a 1.5 inch label width so that I can place it on a 30ml bottles. Also if you are thinking about placing your logo with no background, that will not work. Thier software always adds a white background so that is a huge bummer. And last, since there is no ink in this system the colors are not true colors too. Overall, it will be more cost effective to purchase professional labels, but atleast this printer will give you some kinda of idea how a finished product will look.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from complete waste of time bought this several months ago and have battling with it ever since. Got it working over wifi in my office, but my staff were unable to connect to it. Connected it over USB to our print server, not fit for purpose as it shuts down very quickly, meaning a nurse needs to go and turn it on, then go back to their desk to print the label, only to find it still didn't print. I connected it back to my laptop, now it simply won't print, all the lights are on and ready to print, I can see the job pass through the queue, but nothing happens on the printer, 25 jobs now and nothing happens. Infuriating, and annoying when its not cheap. Got a Dymo coming now, the masters of label printing.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Misalignment and color not the same as app Tested my new printer and was really excited to get labels I can put on bottles. The labels are great but two things I noticed I am not completely satisfied on: 1. Frames - either the label is off or the printing is... when I do a full frame that should bleed to the edges - the top is cropped a bit and the bottom has white trim. Wish there was a way to adjust frames because I was really excited to use the frames included in the app. 2. Color - Color is more vibrant on the app then on the label - using either Vivid or Standard mode. A true purple color printed magenta and a true pink background printed like a peachy pink color. Also where I tested using a frame - the start of the printing on the right edge looked faded than the rest.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Quality is fantastic, Out of the box it was time consuming to install drivers and software . It’s not plug and play and its not click and print. When I installed the APP on iPad or iPhone you have to go to the wireless settings and select the VC-500W from the available WiFi list, therefore your device is tied up and you cannot switch between apps to do searches , check mail or other tasks. It’s actually a pain. Print quality is unbelievable and right as soon as i got up and running i made some sweet long and short 2” labels.So i am giving a high performance rating for printing only, connectivity and setup, i am giving the device an one star out of five. It’s not worth the money and time.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Interesting little printer I have to agree with another review that out of the box it was time consuming to install drivers and software. It’s not plug and play and its not click and print. I also found it difficult to hook up as a wired (usb) printer. It seems they are pushing for their app style printing with this device then on a PC computer. I am also not impressed with the color. Color is off on label compared to the computer. I printed a deep blue and the color printed out muted or lighter blue on the label. While I like the small simple design and the inkless feature there are some things that need to be tweeked in order for this be be better in my option.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY, this will not work consistently, ALWAYS some type of error when trying to print, I expected way better from Brother than this... missed the window for return or we definitely would have.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible Software I have been trying for 2 months, since purchase to get this thing connected to my network. No problem with 2 other Brother Printers and Scanners but the software for this one is terrible.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Good Printer but with lack of important features I work in a product company with 500+ customers. I started recommending my customers this printer for visitor badges. After ordering around 100+ printers and using them daily, we concluded that this printer only works well with the Color Label App. If you want to use this as a visitor label printer, then this printer is not the correct selection. We paired this printer with our Kiosk app on iPad and visitor printer badges. Once the visitor completes the information, the app sends the printer command to print the badge using Air Print. Problem: after 30+ mins of inactivity, this printer goes idle and does not print the badges. Reconnection or printer restart is needed to pair again with the app. This is a huge task for lobby managers as they need to do this activity after every hour and visitors are also unhappy with the delay. Moreover, the badges are not AUTO CUT; someone needs to swipe on the head of the printer to cut the badge. At last, we tried to contact Brother customer support but got no help from their end. Finally, clients are unhappy with this printer and losing their brand value. Just because this printer is going idle and no one has a solution, we have unhappy clients. Therefore, I don’t recommend this printer for Visitor Management, but you can use the printer label for personal use.
