![]() ![]() ![]() The Brother TD-4100N label printer is almost identical to the Brother TD-4000 ($389.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) that I recently reviewed, except that it adds an Ethernet connector. As we've seen with other label printers, that makes a big difference in speed, with the TD-4100N coming in significantly slower than the TD-4000 on some of our tests. More important, however, is that it turns the TD-4100N into a shared printer. That, in turn, makes its heavy-duty capability more appropriate for more offices, since everyone on your network can use it. Like the Brother TD-4000, the TD-4100N is a distant cousin to the Editors' Choice Brother QL-700 and it's network-ready variation, the Brother QL-720NW. However, it doesn't offer the same variety of label types or the same ability to print stamps as the QL models. Instead, it concentrates on speed and also adds the ability to print labels as large as four-inches wide. That translates to less versatility than the QL models but heavier duty capability. Key features for the TD-4100N include an automatic cutter and the ability to switch label rolls easily. That's important, because swapping out rolls with most label printers is just hard enough to discourage switching labels very often. With the TD-4100N it took me only about 30 seconds to switch rolls without rushing, and it was easy enough that you're unlikely to consider it an issue unless you have to switch rolls repeatedly every day. Unfortunately, as with the TD-4000, there aren't all that many types of rolls to switch to with the TD-4100N. ![]()
