Technical Data for Brother DK Labels

Label Durability – Technical Data & Performance Overview

While Brother DK labels—both paper and film types—are made for direct thermal printing, they are best suited for short-term labeling applications. These labels are ideal for uses such as shipping, name badges, temporary file organization, and other everyday office or retail tasks. For any long-term or high-durability labeling needs, we strongly recommend switching to Brother TZe laminated P-touch tapes, which are built to endure harsh environments over time.

The performance results below are based on rigorous internal testing conducted by Brother under controlled conditions. These tests were designed to demonstrate how Brother DK paper and film labels perform under various stressors.

Please Note: Brother does not guarantee the performance of DK labels outside of the tested conditions. Actual durability may vary depending on environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, sunlight exposure, and surface material.
