Label tape Brother TZe‑131 black on clear 12 mm (Tz2-131)

Brother TZe‑131 black on clear 12 mm laminated label tape provides a narrow, professional-looking labelling solution for P‑touch printers that accept TZe/TZ cartridges. The tape prints black text on a transparent background, producing clear, legible labels that blend with many surfaces. The laminated construction gives the finished labels resistance to water, smudging, abrasion and fading, making them suitable for a wide range of indoor organisation and identification tasks.

Advantages

The laminated 12 mm tape produces durable, high-contrast labels with neat edges and consistent print quality. Black on clear printing allows labels to be discrete when applied to coloured or patterned surfaces while maintaining readable text. The tape is compatible with Brother P‑touch machines that use TZe/TZ cartridges, and its laminated finish improves resistance to moisture, chemicals and everyday wear, extending label lifespan in office, home and light industrial environments.

How to use

Install the cartridge into a compatible Brother P‑touch label printer according to the printer's instructions. Set the desired font size and layout on the printer or corresponding software, then print the label. Peel the backing from the printed tape and press the label firmly onto a clean, dry surface. For best adhesion, avoid applying labels to dusty, oily or highly textured surfaces.

Usage recommendations

For long-lasting results, apply the label at room temperature to a surface cleaned with isopropyl alcohol or mild detergent. Allow printed labels to fully cure for 24 hours before exposure to heavy wear or outdoor conditions. Store unused cartridges in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve adhesive performance and print quality.
