How to install Brother 18mm HGe Tape

Installing and using this tape is straightforward and designed for quick setup, so you can move from unboxing to labeling in minutes. Start by ensuring your Brother label printer is powered off, then open the tape compartment and remove any old cartridge. Insert the 18 mm HGe tape cartridge or roll so the tape feeds through the path correctly, making sure the end aligns with the take-up cassette or cutter if your device includes one. Close the compartment securely, power on the printer, and verify that the software is set to the 18 mm tape width and the Black on White label option for optimal results. Type your label text using the printer’s keyboard or connected software, choosing clear, concise wording and an easy-to-read font size that matches the label dimensions. Before printing a large batch, print a test label to confirm spacing, character size, and alignment. Feed the tape out, and use the built-in cutter to trim each label cleanly. Finally, apply the label to a clean, dry surface, smoothing out any air bubbles or wrinkles for a durable finish. For best adhesion, avoid applying labels to rough, dusty, or oily surfaces; if necessary, wipe the area with a mild cleaner and allow it to dry completely before labeling. When removing labels later, gently peel at a corner and work slowly to minimize residue on delicate surfaces.

Frequently asked questions

• Q: Is this tape suitable for outdoor use? A: Yes, the HGe tape is designed for indoor and outdoor labeling; for outdoor applications, ensure surfaces are clean and dry, and consider applying labels to smooth, protected areas. Exposure to extreme weather or continual abrasion may affect longevity, so factor in surface conditions and intended exposure when planning outdoor labeling.
• Q: Will it adhere to curved surfaces? A: The standard adhesive works well on flat to gently curved surfaces like boxes, containers, and cables; for highly curved or textured surfaces, test a small area first to confirm adhesion and label durability over time.
• Q: Which printers are compatible? A: This 18 mm Black on White HGe tape is compatible with Brother P-touch label printers that support 18 mm HGe tapes, enabling seamless design and printing workflows within the Brother ecosystem.
• Q: How long does each roll last? A: Each roll is 8 meters (26.2 feet) long, delivering substantial labeling capacity for multiple projects, batches, and ongoing inventory organization without frequent restocking.
• Q: Does it leave residue when removed? A: Standard adhesive labels can leave residue on certain surfaces, especially porous or matte finishes; if removal is anticipated, test on a hidden area first and plan for residue management if required.
