Yes, these are 100 feet, not 100 inches
The title and description both say this is 100 inches, but that doesn't make sense because the sample that came with my printer, a QL-700, was 26.2 feet, and looking at the photo of the roll of the OfficeSmart labels, it is obviously much bigger than the 26.2' roll was. So I decided to gamble and order this, knowing I couldn't complain if I did in fact receive a 100" roll instead of a 100' roll.Now that it is here, I know for sure I made the right decision. The side of the cartridge says 30.48m which is 100 feet, not 100 inches, and the roll I received is identical to the product picture.My first test prints worked just fine and the adhesive seems adequate. Compared to the name brand labels, this material feels a little thinner, but the surface is actually a brighter white. Because the material is thinner, it looks like I'll need to be careful to not put these labels on top of other writing or graphics because those will show through potentially obscuring what is printed on the label. Because of this I am dropping a star, but really this isn't a huge issue. Overall I like this product and recommend it as an economical alternative to thicker labels.

Lower Quality Labels but Still Effective
These do work as a replacement forĀ Brother Continuous 2.4 in x 100 ft (62mm x 30.4m) Paper Label Roll (DK-2205) - Retail Packaging . However, one should note the QUALITY IS NOT THE SAME as the Brother labels. There aren't any deal breakers but here's a few noteworthy differences...The Brother official labels print much darker and look nicer than the OfficeSmart product. The Brother labels are also brighter white (closer to 92 brightness paper). These differences aren't significant but you do notice with the two labels side by side.Another notable difference is that the Brother labels will remove clean off of a surface without tearing or leaving residue. The OfficeSmart labels will tear and leave residue behind. It makes a bigger difference if you want to be able to remove the labels later.If none of these differences make a difference in your application, these are a very cost effective replacement to the Brother DK line of labels. Otherwise, pay up for the higher quality OEM labels.

Worked great for the first 20 feet, then stopped working
As a happy user of a QL700 label printer from Brother, and having exhausted the 'free' roll that came with the printer I was in the market for a new roll of blank labels. The selection on Amazon includes Brother branded materials and this 3rd party compatible label stock. I opted for this label based on low cost compared to the Brother branded (OEM) material.All was good for the first 10 - 20 feet, but then the label roll stopped feeding properly and would print only skewed or 'crushed' images. After investigating the issue it became clear that the roll of blank material was tightening on the roll and failing to feed properly.Having spent too much time on troubleshooting the problem and needing to print labels, I went ahead and purchased a box of Brother label roll stock. Many labels later no issues and my printer works as expected once more. I should add I did buy the Brother label roll from Amazon.Buy Cheap and you buy it twice I guess is the lesson here.I know others have had no issues, however, in my new printer it did not work properly.

Terrible, I will not buy this again.
I purchased this in April 2016 but just started using them as my first Brother original roll finally run out. These labels don't stick well. Almost immediately they are lifting at the edges. If you put tape on them to hold them down they fade quickly. I've tried hard pressing them with my fingernail and hard objects but they keep lifting up on the edges. Mainly the left side of the label. If I would have realized how long the original roll lasted, I would have just stuck with the Brother brand. I gave this a 2 star because even the Brother will lift if you are reusing old file folders. (But this is lifting on new file folders... so it should be a one star.) Super glue and clear nail polish turns it black. Tried warming it with a hair dryer- they just do not stick.I hate this product! It just doesn't stick to paper, which is where I use it the most. One star.

I use these with my 570 printer and they do not seem to print as dark. Also they are not as sticky which causes them to peel off the packages, especially in cold weather. other than that they work just fine. Just worried about a label peeling off in the mail.

Works like name brand
I've been using these as an off-brand alternative for a year or so now. They are virtually the same thing as the Brother brand name product at a third of the cost office supply stores want for it and $5 cheaper than Amazon sells the Brother rolls. They aren't as bright and crisp looking, but the difference is so minor. I haven't had any issues using these as mailing labels.

Five Stars
I've purchased these labels several times and will continue to do so. They work great with my brother printer and save me a lot of money on paper, tape and ink when I was using my inkjet printer to print shipping labels. I've had no problems whatsoever.

Working well
I bought these OfficeSmart labels for my Brother QL-570 after the initial start roll was depleted. They seem to work as well as the original at about 1/2 the cost. The advantage over some of the other inexpensive labels out there is that these come on the plastic spool and you don't have to cut an old one apart to jury rig a spool.
