(A “cut-to-length” tape – no pre-cut labels.) Print Type: Thermal label tape (black-on-white). The tape prints bold black text on bright white paper, ensuring professional readability. Adhesive: Strong, permanent glue backing. The adhesive holds labels firmly on paper, plastic, and cardboard surfaces in a broad range of temperatures and conditions. Durability: Water- and oil-resistant, smudge-proof paper. Labels remain crisp and legible even if they get damp or exposed to oil, making them suitable for shipping or retail use. Compatibility: Works with most Brother QL desktop label printers (e.g. QL-1050, QL-500, QL-700, QL-810W, QL-1110NWB, etc.). (Requires the matching DK 22205 brother cassette holder.) Packaging: Each roll comes sealed in a protective black polybag and carton to prevent dirt, light or scratches during shipping. This keeps the tape clean until you install it. Advantages of DK 22205 Brother Compatible Labels: Custom Length Flexibility: Create labels of any length up to 30.48 m. You can print long shipping labels, small address tags, or even banner-style labels as needed, as there are no fixed size limitations. Moreover, the built-in cutter on many QL printers makes it easy to cut labels precisely. Professional Quality: The bright white surface yields high-contrast black text. This ensures that addresses, names, or barcodes stand out clearly. In addition, the Fasson/Ricoh quality stock means reliable print consistency and a smooth finish. Durable Labels: With a strong permanent adhesive and water/oil resistance, these labels stay attached to parcels, folders or products in most conditions. This durability is perfect for long-term filings, inventory tags, or courier packages. Wide Applicability: These labels are suited for mailing, warehouses, office organisations, retail, and more. For example, use DK-22205 to print Royal Mail postage labels, Amazon shipping tags, barcoded warehouse labels, or even temporary ID badges. Simply put, it serves any purpose where a flexible label is required. Cost-Effectiveness: As a Brother-compatible roll, DK-22205 offers “value for money” compared to some OEM tapes. Businesses save on consumables without sacrificing quality. (This generic tape is made to the same quality standards but typically costs less than the original Brother-branded roll.) UK-Friendly: Use metric units (millimetres, metres) for label dimensions and instructions, as these are commonly used in the UK. The product is widely stocked by UK suppliers (e.g., Printerland, Cartridge Save) with UK tax-inclusive pricing. Plus, it’s compatible with local shipping systems (Royal Mail Click & Drop, etc.) and UK Office setups. Disadvantages of DK 22205 Brother Compatible Labels: Manual Cutting Required: Because the tape is continuous, you must cut each label at the desired length. (Many Brother QL printers have an auto-cutter, but very short label printing can be slower.) One-Colour Printing: This roll only prints black on white. If you need coloured labels or backgrounds, you must switch to a different tape type. Cartridge Needed: The DK 22205 brother tape comes without a cartridge. To use it, you must load it into the correct Brother plastic cassette (DK 22205 brother spool). You can purchase this spool separately. Not Pre-Cut: For very standard jobs (e.g., fixed-size address labels), pre-cut label rolls (like 29×90 mm labels) can be more convenient since the printer handles all cutting. A continuous tape gives ultimate flexibility but may be less convenient if you only ever need one label size. Printer-Specific: This tape only fits Brother QL printers. It will not work in Dymo or Zebra printers. (However, many QL users have a large selection of compatible Brother printers.) Comparison of DK 22205 Brother Compatible Labels with Standard Address Labels: To illustrate the difference, consider Brother’s standard pre-cut address labels (e.g., DK-11201, 29 × 90 mm, 400 per roll) versus the DK 22205 Brother continuous tape: Feature DK 22205 Brother (Continuous Tape) DK-11201 (Pre-cut Address Label) Label Size 62 mm wide, any length (cut-to-length) 29 × 90 mm per label Labels per Roll Single 30.48 m roll (variable count) 400 labels (fixed size) Flexibility Cut each label to exact needed length Fixed-size labels only (no cutting) Applications Long labels, banners, shipping, cable tags Mailing addresses, name badges Printer Brother QL printers Brother QL printers Stock Control One roll covers mixed lengths (less waste) May have leftover unused label space The DK-22205 tape offers much more flexibility, especially when label lengths vary. However, DK-11201 or similar die-cut rolls are convenient for fixed-format tasks (like printing all labels at 29×90 mm). Overall, the DK 22205 Brother continuous label roll delivers versatile and reliable labelling for UK users. For shipping labels, filing systems, and any tasks requiring custom label lengths, its continuous format and strong adhesive make it an ideal choice. While you must cut labels manually and use a separate cassette, the benefits – clear prints, durable adhesive, and broad Brother compatibility – outweigh these minor drawbacks.
