Compact, elegant and easy to use

The P-touch 1230PC and 2430PC redefine personal label printing. Their compact
design uses little desk space, so they fit perfectly at the side of your monitor; they
can be powered from standard batteries or an AC adapter. Create personalised,
durable labels whenever and wherever they are required.

P-touch 2430PC additional features

The P-touch 2430PC has valuable additional features, including the capability to
print labels up to 24mm in width (twice as wide as the PT-1230PC). The built-in 
cutter is particularly useful when printing many labels at once – each one is cut to
the correct length. The P-touch 2430PC is also supplied with an AC adapter as
standard, and a CD containing the Professional P-touch Editor 5.0 software.

Professional software

P-touch Editor 5.0 is Brother’s professional label editing software, allowing the 
printing of labels directly from Microsoft Word / Excel / Outlook. Barcodes can be
added to your labels and, as both models can use batteries, this combination
makes an ideal labelling solution for asset management through a portable laptop.
This powerful software is supplied on CD (P-touch 2430PC only) or is available to
download from http://solutions.brother.com.

P-touch laminated labels – designed to last

Unlike ordinary labels, Brother P-touch laminated TZ tapes consist of six layers of
materials, resulting in a thin, extremely strong label. Characters are formed with a
thermal transfer ink and sandwiched between two protective layers of PET 
(polyester film).

We’ve tested them to the extreme, against the effects of abrasion, temperature,
chemicals and sunlight. Results prove that Brother P-touch laminated labels 
out-perform competitor labels, so you can be confident of a professional quality
label that has been designed to last.
