ZINK® zero-ink
Powered by ZINK® Zero-Ink® Printing Technology, the secret’s hidden in the label rolls. Special colour crystals in the paper are activated by heat to create full colour labels without the need for additional ink cartridges. No ink means you save money, and makes the printer incredibly compact too.
Create labels to the length you require
Available in five different widths, Brother label rolls use ZINK® Zero-Ink® printing technology to produce full colour labels without ink or toner cartridges. Simply slot the roll into the back of the printer to create labels for many applications around the office.
