Custom rolls sized for mobile & handheld thermal printers
Custom & Blank Stock

Labels built for mobile printers.

Label rolls sized and wound specifically for handheld and mobile thermal printers used on the warehouse floor, at the receiving dock, and in the field. Direct thermal options available — no ribbon needed.

What makes these different from standard rolls
Sized for mobile cores
Mobile printers use smaller core and roll diameters than desktop or industrial units. Our mobile rolls are wound to fit — no jamming, no re-winding.
Direct thermal available
Most mobile printing applications use direct thermal — no ribbon to carry, no ribbon to change mid-shift. Simpler and faster on the floor.
Custom print available
Need labels pre-printed from your data file? We produce custom mobile label rolls to your spec — shipping labels, LPN labels, pick labels, and more.

Mobile vs Standard Rolls

Why you cannot just use any label roll in a mobile printer.

Mobile and handheld thermal printers have different media requirements than desktop or industrial units. The core diameter is smaller, the roll OD (outer diameter) is smaller, and the label width is typically narrower to fit the compact print mechanism.

Loading a standard full-size roll into a mobile printer leads to feed errors, label jams, and wasted stock. Our mobile label rolls are wound to the correct dimensions for the printer you are running. Tell us your printer model when you get in touch and we will confirm the right specification before producing anything.
