TL/DR? - Cheap tapes, but they work really well! I have always been a bit wary of buying non-genuine tapes for my P-Touch printers. I have an old P-Touch printer that has a built in keyboard and no computer interface and a modern wireless P-Touch printer that connects to a computer so you can print graphical labels. Because I have two printers that have specific requirements for their tapes, I have always purchased the genuine Brother P-Touch TZe tapes, just to ensure that they will be guaranteed to be compatible with the printers. I ran out of 12mm "White on Clear" tape and I urgently needed more so that I could finish a job I was doing. "No problem" I thought, "I'll log on to Amazon, they will have the genuine ones in stock" - WRONG! Amazon did not have the genuine ones in stock, in fact they hard hardly any TZe tapes in stock, so I had no choice but to consider using compatible tapes for the first time. So, I browsed what was available for Prime "Get it tomorrow" and only one seller had the 12mm White on Clear available. So it wasn't a case of making a choice, it was basically a case of just buy what was available. So, the tapes arrived and I expected them to be poor quality. I expected the printers to reject them - but when I opened the packet, I saw 3 tapes that had decent packaging and labelling on them and on removing one from the packet, it looked like a well made copy. I put it in the printer and the printer didn't complain. I sent a test label from my computer to the printer and it printed the label. I then printed the proper labels that I needed and I expected the printer to fail to print at some point, but it did not. All labels printed. The next task was to apply them to what they needed to go on. I expected the tapes to be not very sticky and to fall off, but they have a good stickiness which is on par with the genuine tapes. Almost 2 weeks have passed since I printed the labels and stuck them on the items they needed to go on. They are still stuck fast and you can see no difference between the genuine Brother labels and these much cheaper copies. So, I am converted. In future I will buy the Xemax copies and save a few quid in the process!

Fast delivery, good price, looks fine, haven't yet used it

Backing difficult to remove

Works perfectly

Just what I needed for work and they stick well to metal.

Just what I needed

The labels print and stick just like the real deal, the only difference is that the backing is a little harder to peal off. I even use these on outside boxes and they have proven sun, rain and frost proof/ The only downside is they have the wrong chip in them, so my label printer thinks these are blue labels, although this does not effect their performance in any way,

Wry poor quality. tangled up & all six had to be binned. Don’t buy cheap, buy the best.
