Brother PT-D220 Tape Sizes: 9mm vs. 12mm

The PT-D220 supports four TZe tape widths, but the compatible replacement options currently available in this Colorty collection focus on 9mm and 12mm. Use the table below to check the difference before choosing a refill.

Tape Width Approximate Width PT-D220 Support Common Uses
3.5mm 0.13 inch Supported by the machine Very narrow identification labels
6mm 0.23 inch Supported by the machine Small labels and narrow spaces
9mm 0.35 inch / 3/8 inch Supported; available in this collection Small folders, notebooks, cables, drawers, and compact labels
12mm 0.47 inch / 1/2 inch Supported; maximum width and available in this collection File folders, storage boxes, shelves, cabinets, and everyday office labeling

Which width should you choose? Choose 9mm TZe tape when labeling space is limited or you prefer a compact label. Choose 12mm TZe tape when you need more room for readable text on folders, storage containers, shelves, and office supplies. Although the machine supports 3.5mm and 6mm tape, those widths are not currently the main replacement options offered in this collection.
