Brother PT-55 Label Tape
Your Brother PT-55 personal labeller uses genuine Brother M series tape cassettes in 9mm and 12mm widths. This compact handheld labelling device is ideal for everyday home and office organisation, including file folders, storage containers and school supplies. Standard 9mm tapes like M-K221 suit narrow surfaces, while 12mm options such as M-K231 provide extra surface area for multi-line text. Consumables for this model have been available from Ink Depot since Jan 2012. Australian customers rate Ink Depot 4.8 on Google.
Tape Length and Replacement Planning
Brother M series label tape cassettes contain continuous non-laminated label tape designed specifically for personal handheld labellers. Each tape cassette provides continuous material, allowing you to cut custom-length labels for containers, files, and personal items. Selecting multipack bundle options for frequently used tapes like M-K221 or M-K231 ensures you have sufficient supply on hand for larger labelling projects around the home or workspace.
Choosing the Right Tape Width and Colour
Selecting the correct Brother M tape depends on the size of the surface you are labelling and the visual contrast required. Narrower 9mm options, such as M-K221 (black on white) and M-821 (black on silver), fit neatly onto folder spines, narrow drawers, and small lids. Broader 12mm tapes, including M-K231 (black on white) and M-K531 (black on blue), accommodate larger font sizes or multiple lines of text for clear identification. Brother M series tapes feature non-laminated construction intended for indoor applications on flat, smooth surfaces.

Pro Tip: Surface Preparation for Non-Laminated Tapes
To achieve maximum adhesion with Brother M series non-laminated tapes, ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils before applying the label. Pressing firmly across the entire label length helps create a reliable bond on plastic containers, paper folders, and smooth storage boxes.
