Brother 2"x2" DT Premium Paper Label – 615 Labels per Roll, 8 Rolls per Case

Discover a premium labeling solution with the Brother 2"x2" DT Premium Paper Labels. Built for speed, precision, and reliability, these white, top-coated direct-thermal labels deliver exceptionally smooth print quality that shines in high-volume environments. The ultra-smooth surface minimizes printer friction, resulting in flawless text, bold graphics, and clean barcodes at fast speeds. Designed to endure real-world conditions, these labels offer strong environmental resistance, helping to maintain legibility across storage, shelving, and handling scenarios. With archival potential of up to 20 years when stored properly, they are ideal for product labeling, asset tracking, inventory management, and shipping documentation. Each roll contains 615 labels, and eight rolls come in a case, providing substantial uptime between replacements. The labels feature a 4" outer diameter and a 1" core, making them compatible with a broad range of standard label printers and dispensers, and ensuring a smooth feeding experience across diverse workflows.

• Direct-thermal performance with a premium finish: White, top-coated surface is optimized for direct-thermal printing, producing high-contrast text, precise barcodes, and vibrant graphics without the need for ink or ribbons. This translates to sharper readability and reduced reprints in bustling environments such as warehouses and retail operations.
• Ultra-smooth print surface for high-speed printing: The ultra-smooth substrate minimizes friction and wear on print heads, enabling reliable operation at high speeds. This means faster batch labeling, reduced downtime, and improved throughput during peak labeling periods.
• Robust environmental resistance: Formulated to resist common environmental challenges—humidity, handling abrasion, and routine surface contact—so labels stay legible even after repeated handling, shelving, and transport within dynamic workspaces.
• Long-term archival readability: With archivalability rated up to 20 years when stored under appropriate conditions, these labels are a smart choice for long-term asset tags, product identifiers, and compliance labeling that may need to withstand the test of time.
• Economical, case-ready packaging for uptime: Each case includes eight rolls of 615 labels, delivering excellent label density and minimizing restocking frequency. The consistent packaging supports predictable inventory planning and reduces downtime in labeling-heavy operations.

How to Install Brother 2"x2" DT Premium Paper Label

• Verify printer compatibility: Ensure your direct-thermal printer supports 2" x 2" labels and can accommodate a 4" roll diameter with a 1" core.
• Prepare the printer: Power on the printer, open the media guide, and remove the old roll if necessary. Clean any dust or debris from the media path to promote smooth feeding.
• Load the roll: Place the 8-roll case in the appropriate storage area and remove a roll for installation. Mount the roll so the label surface faces outward and feeds in the correct direction as indicated by printer guides.
• Align and thread: Adjust the media guides to fit the 2" width accurately. Thread the label through the printer’s path, ensuring the edge of the label sits squarely in the feed area without skewing.
• Set printer parameters: In your printer driver or printing software, select the label size as 2" x 2" and the media type as Direct Thermal Label. Choose a suitable print darkness level and speed for optimal readability.
• Run a test label: Print a single test label to confirm alignment, readability, and barcode clarity. If adjustments are needed, fine-tune the media gap, darkness, and print speed until the result meets your standards.
• Load additional labels: Once the first label is correctly aligned, continue loading the remaining labels. Make sure the flow remains consistent and that the roll does not sag or cause feed interruptions during printing.
• Monitor for wear and tear: Periodically inspect the print head and platen for debris. Clean as needed to preserve print quality and extend the life of your printer components.
