Inkjet Label Rolls — Colour Inkjet Labels for Shipping and Product Labelling
Inkjet label rolls are designed for use in inkjet printers — including Epson, Canon, and HP colour inkjet printers — rather than thermal or thermal transfer label printers. They allow full-colour label printing directly from a standard inkjet printer, making them suited to applications that require colour graphics, photographic product images, or variable colour content that a thermal printer cannot produce. POS Plaza stocks 100×150mm inkjet label rolls in permanent adhesive paper and poly (polyester) stock, with 40mm and 76mm core options to suit different printer models. Call 1300 115 808 for current availability.
Inkjet label rolls in our range
Label Inkjet Poly Permanent 100×150mm — 250 labels/roll, 40mm core — $63.00 inc GST: A polyester (poly) inkjet label roll, 100mm wide by 150mm long, permanent adhesive, 250 labels per roll on a 40mm core. Polyester label stock is more durable than paper — it resists moisture and tearing, making it suitable for labels that need to survive handling, light outdoor exposure, or humid environments. 40mm core suits smaller desktop inkjet label printers.
Label Inkjet Permanent 100×150mm — 300 labels/roll, 76mm core — $49.00 inc GST: A paper inkjet label roll, 100mm wide by 150mm long, permanent adhesive, 300 labels per roll on a 76mm core. Paper stock is suited to standard shipping label and product label applications where moisture resistance is not required. 76mm core suits larger industrial inkjet label printers.
Both products are currently available to order — call 1300 115 808 to confirm availability and lead times. Prices listed were accurate at the time of writing and are subject to change without notice — please check the individual product page for current pricing.
Frequently asked questions — inkjet label rolls
Q: What is the difference between inkjet labels and thermal labels?
A: Thermal labels (direct thermal and thermal transfer) are designed for thermal printers, which use heat rather than ink to produce the printed image. Inkjet labels are coated to accept water-based inkjet ink and are used in standard inkjet printers. The key advantage of inkjet labels is full-colour printing — thermal printers print in black (or occasionally one colour) only, whereas an inkjet printer can produce full-colour labels with graphics, photos, and colour coding. The trade-off is that inkjet printing is generally slower and has a higher cost-per-label than thermal printing for high volumes.
Q: What is the difference between poly and paper inkjet label stock?
A: Paper inkjet label stock is a standard coated paper suitable for indoor product labels and shipping labels where moisture and abrasion resistance are not requirements. Polyester (poly) label stock is a synthetic film material that resists moisture, tearing, and light abrasion — it produces a more durable label suited to products that may be handled heavily, stored in humid conditions, or exposed to light outdoor use. If your labels need to survive a wet or humid environment (cold chain, refrigerated products, outdoor assets), poly stock is the right choice.
Q: What core size do I need — 40mm or 76mm?
A: The core size (the inner diameter of the roll) needs to match your printer's media hub. Desktop inkjet label printers typically use a 40mm core, while larger industrial or wide-format inkjet printers use a 76mm core. Check your printer's specifications or the existing label roll you are replacing to confirm the core size before ordering. If you are unsure, call us on 1300 115 808.
