The one thing I absolutely cannot stand about all the low-end brothers is the amount of waste they generate. When printing single labels, they spit out a useless 3/4 inch tab that you have to hit the 'cut' lever for. This tab is the tape that was wasted pushing out the last label. I would estimate this consumes about 20% of the tape on these printers - perhaps less if you chain print or have longer labels. The PT-1830 and PT-1880 are good examples of this insanity.
