If you're okay with wasting $17 per tape on this thing, go ahead. I've had many misfeeds resulting in two unusable tapes and (suprise!) Brother doesn't warrant the tapes (so save your sales receipts to take it back to the store). Another version purchased for our office ate a tape causing the roller to break and (surprise!) the machine was no longer in its warranty. I've had much better luck with a Casio labeler which apparently uses a different system for their tapes. No consumer joy in this device at all.
