Product Information

Full details

The Brother Label Roll DKN55224 is a high-quality compatible continuous paper tape designed for users of Brother QL series thermal label printers who require versatile, non-adhesive labeling solutions. It is ideal for professional environments, shipping departments, and organized home offices where customized length labels are necessary for various organizational tasks. While this tape provides excellent print quality and consistent feed performance, it is important to note that it lacks an adhesive backing, making it better suited for inserts, tags, and internal documents rather than standard parcel labeling.

FAQs

Is this label roll adhesive?

No, the DKN55224 is a non-adhesive, continuous paper tape.

Which printers are compatible with this roll?

It is specifically designed for use with Brother QL series thermal label printers.

How do I cut the labels since there is no adhesive?

Most Brother QL printers have an integrated automatic cutter that will slice the continuous tape at the length specified in your software settings.

Yes, the clean white surface is perfect for printing sharp, scannable barcodes.

How should I store these rolls?

Troubleshooting

Printer does not recognize the label roll

Remove the roll and ensure it is firmly seated in the guide pins. Restart the printer and verify the software is set to the correct media type.

Streaks appearing on the printed text

The thermal print head may have accumulated dust or adhesive residue. Power off the unit and gently clean the print head with an isopropyl alcohol-dampened swab.

Labels are misaligned or not cutting correctly

Check that the continuous tape is fed straight into the printer path and ensure that the printer driver settings match the physical orientation of the media.

  • High-contrast white surface for professional legibility
  • Reliable, print-tested performance in Brother QL printers
  • Cost-effective for high-volume internal labeling

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the DKN55224, ensure your printer is powered on and insert the cartridge firmly into the label slot until it clicks into place. The printer will automatically detect the roll width; check your software settings to ensure the page size is set to "Continuous" to avoid cutting errors. For care, keep your printer in a dust-free environment and avoid touching the thermal print head with your fingers. Periodically cleaning the print head with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol will ensure that your labels continue to print without streaks or faded text.
