Brother VC-500W full colour label printer

Brother's first full colour, compact desktop label printer is a truly revolutionary product in the office label printer market. For the first time you can print labels with any colour combination required, ideal for colour coding files, documents and archive folders.

Include full colour, photo quality images such as company logos, or staff and visitor photographs on security passes.

Incorporating both wireless and USB interfaces, the VC-500W connects to your PC or Mac and uses the free P-touch Editor desktop label design software, or to your Apple or Android device with the Brother Color Label Editor app.
