J7300 - Brady Print Utility

The Brady Print Utility was introduced with Brady Communication Service in Brady Workstation 4.19.0.4 March 2024 shell. Brady Print Utility (BPU) automatically installs with your printer driver or Brady Workstation 4.19.0.4 download. It cannot be downloaded on its own. Access BPU through the printer driver preferences or as a program on your Windows start menu. 
 
The BPU accesses most of the information it uses from the printer itself, so the printer must be turned on and communicating for the program to open. Access Brady Print Utility: Start > Programs > Brady > Brady Print Utility.

Use the Brady Print Utility for maintenance, gathering ink levels, print history, material calculations, and other functions. 

Uninstall BPU in Apps & features in Windows 10 and prior or Installed apps in Windows 11. If you uninstall BPU, also uninstall Communication Services.

Print Calculator

Estimate the appropriate cost per label for large projects.
 

* Print Calculator estimates are based on current labels being printed and are print job dependent. Pricing is input by the user. How many total and how many remaining labels can depend on several factors:

  • Humidity in the printer's environment.
  • Length of time the ink cartridge is open which can lead to evaporation.
  • Number of automated maintenance routines run between print jobs.
  • Loss of accuracy if ink cartridges are switched between printers. 
Print Calculator

Enter the prices for the K cartridge, CMY cartridge and label supply. After the next print job is sent, the values update with each label printed.
