The Brother DK-22205 is a continuous paper label roll, specifically developed for electronic labelling devices by the manufacturer Brother. The product is used for creating self-adhesive labels of any length, utilising the thermal direct printing technology. The labels feature a black on white colour scheme, with a matte surface finish. The roll has a width of 62 mm and a length of 30.48 m, offering high flexibility for labelling envelopes, folders, shelves, or other items in office and home environments. The packaging contains a single roll per pack, delivered in a box.

Applications

The DK-22205 is designed for indoor use and is particularly suitable for office and home applications where clear, durable labelling is required. The labels are not intended for outdoor use, as they do not offer weather resistance, moisture resistance, UV resistance, or water resistance. Use on textured surfaces is also not recommended, as adhesion cannot be guaranteed on rough or uneven surfaces. The labels are not laminated and do not provide a protective layer against chemicals, oil, or heat.

Functions and Features in Detail

The label roll is designed as continuous labels, meaning users can create labels of any desired length without needing to cut pre-formed labels. The self-adhesive function allows for secure attachment to smooth, clean surfaces. The DK tape type designation indicates compatibility with a range of Brother label printers. The roll is designed for spare part storage of 5 years, describing its shelf life under appropriate storage conditions.

Technology Explained Simply

The thermal direct printing technology operates without toner or ribbons. Instead, the label surface is selectively darkened by applying heat to specific areas. This requires no additional printing media and enables fast, clean labelling. The matte surface ensures good readability and prevents glare. The paper quality is designed for use in standard label printers and provides sufficient strength for daily use.

Compatibility and Accessories

The DK-22205 is compatible with a wide range of Brother label printers, including models QL1050, QL1060N, QL500, QL500A, QL550, QL560, QL560VP, QL570, QL580N, QL650TD, QL700, QL710W, and QL720NW. These devices support DK tape types and are designed for use with continuous labels.

Installation and Mounting

The label roll is inserted into the label printer device. The packaging does not include specific installation instructions. Installation typically involves placing the roll into the designated compartment of the printer, with print direction and roll positioning determined according to the device manual. The roll is designed for direct use in the specified devices and requires no additional preparation.

Operational Advantages

The DK-22205 offers high flexibility in label creation, as labels of any length can be produced. The clear black-and-white appearance ensures good readability, and the self-adhesive feature enables easy attachment. Use in office and home applications is ideal, as the labels are designed for daily use. Compatibility with a broad range of Brother printers increases usability. The roll is packaged in a robust box, ensuring safe transport and storage.
