Brother PT-PC label maker. Currently still available new or used. Was about $500.00 or so when first released, ...HOWEVER.....that was six years ago. This was / is a fancy Brother label maker with extensive programming for printing fonts, images, label forms and borders, etc. driven tby the PC.  Initially, it would seem the extrodinairly high price inhibited sales, as they're STILL available, six obsolete years later, new. Be forewarned, this printer predates Windows 95.  Brother has released drivers for Windows XP......HOWEVER (again)....the XP drivers  are borderline impossible to load, and DO NOT allow access to the full proliferation of   features initially available in the Windows 3.1 floppy software that came / come with the unit. The unit is serial and printer port connectable. NOT USB! The only truly assured use is that of a large paperweight.

This price of this PT-PC printer has spiraled downward from the original $400.00-$500.00 to anywhere from $30.00 to $250.00 +/- $150.00. Another issue is the fact it ONLY takes the equally obsolete TX tapes.This is a fine device for anyone who is a glutton for stress and disappointment in futile drills of  loading software that is virtually unworkable with Windows XP (and 98, 98 SE). Brother offers cordial phone service and driver downloads, I give them A for effort (albeit not too successful). It would be my guess they wish the existing PT-PC printers would all go away. Certainly the many merchants still having new ones in stock would have like desires.
