2.25 in x 1.25 in Perforated Direct Thermal Labels - Purple, 12 Rolls

In this review of the 2.25 in x 1.25 in perforated direct thermal labels, the bottom line is simple: these rolls suit small businesses and craft applications that need bright, consistent purple labels compatible with many desktop direct thermal printers. The reviewer found them most valuable for shipping, consignment tags and address labels where color helps visual sorting. While print quality and adhesion showed mixed results for some users, the clear compatibility list and large roll size make these labels a practical choice for teams using Zebra and similar printers.

Key Features

• Direct thermal construction: Prints without ink or toner, simplifying setup and reducing ongoing supply costs for short-term labels.
• Perforated roll format: Perforation between labels allows quick tear-off and neat, consistent labels when dispensing by hand or with many desktop printers.
• Wide printer compatibility: Works with a long list of Zebra models and other direct thermal machines, so integration is straightforward for existing label workflows.
• Distinctive purple color: The colored face stock improves visual organization for shipping, consignment or inventory tasks compared with plain white labels.
• Large pack count: Twelve rolls provide extensive supply for medium-volume operations and cut down on reordering frequency.

Who It's For

This product is aimed at small retailers, consignment shops and office users who use direct thermal desktop printers and want a colored label option for address, barcode and consignment use. It is especially useful where color coding speeds sorting or catches attention on crowded packages.

Those who need flawless thermal print performance on every model should verify their printer settings and test a roll first, since some users reported mixed print quality and occasional adhesion issues. If you require long-term outdoor durability or waterproof labels, consider thermal transfer or coated stocks instead.
