Brother PT-1880 Label Tape
Your Brother PT-1880 uses genuine Brother TZe label tape cassettes in widths ranging from 6mm to 18mm. The Brother PT-1880 is a versatile desktop label maker suited to everyday office organisation, asset identification, filing and cable marking. Standard TZe-231 12mm black-on-white tape handles standard folder and storage labelling, while TZe-FX231 flexible tape is designed for wrapping around cables, and TZe-S231 strong adhesive tape secures textured surfaces. Australian customers rate Ink Depot 4.8 on Google. Consumables for this label printer have been available from Ink Depot since Jan 2012.
Tape Length and Expected Output
Standard genuine Brother TZe tape cassettes supply 8 metres of continuous laminated tape, providing consistent output across daily filing and asset identification tasks. Specialty cassettes, including iron-on fabric tapes and stencil tapes, offer continuous rolls suited to specific craft or industrial applications. Ordering multi-packs containing two or three cassettes helps maintain standard labelling stock for busy office environments.
Selecting the Right TZe Tape Width and Type
The Brother PT-1880 supports four tape widths: 6mm, 9mm, 12mm, and 18mm. Choosing the correct width and material ensures clear, durable results for your application:
- 6mm and 9mm Tapes: Ideal for narrow folder tabs, thin file spines, electrical switches, and compact storage bins.
- 12mm Tapes: The standard size for general office labelling, file folders, binder spines, and shelf tags. Options like TZe-231 provide clear black print on a white background.
- 18mm Tapes: Suitable for multi-line asset tags, equipment warnings, large storage boxes, and high-visibility signage.
- Flexible ID Tapes (TZe-FX): Specifically engineered with pliable adhesive for wrapping smoothly around cables, wires, and curved pipes without flagging over time.
- Strong Adhesive Tapes (TZe-S): Formulated with extra bonding strength for rough, textured, or powder-coated surfaces where standard adhesives might fail.
- Specialty Tapes: Options include TZe-FA fabric iron-on tapes for clothing, TZe-SE security tamper-evident tapes for asset protection, and STe stencil tapes for chemical etching.
