From intricate patterns to full colour photographs, you can customise all of your designs easily. Labels can be designed, edited and printed from PC, Mac, iOS or Android, via USB or Wi-Fi and the printer uses the latest technology to guarantee a high quality, professional finish.
The Design n Craft Colour Label Printer uses cutting-edge technology for a professional, full colour finish on every craft project. It’s simple to use and gives you complete creative freedom – whether you’re making cards, gifts, or home decorations, they’ll be unmistakably yours and can be customised to suit the lucky recipient.
Full colour professional finish
The Brother Design n Craft is the first full colour label printer from Brother. Print in multiple colours to create visually stunning labels ideal for everything from papercrafts, bullet-journals, wedding invitations, scrapbooks and even home decor.
Print without ink
Powered by ZINK® Zero-Ink® printing technology, the secret’s hidden in the label rolls. Special colour crystals in the paper are activated by heat to create full colour labels without the need for additional ink cartridges.
PC and Mac connectivity
Connect to your computer using USB or Wi-Fi then design and print full colour labels from the Brother P-touch Editor design software. Import images, add frames and include clip art to ensure your message gets across clearly.
Color Label Editor app for iOS/Android
Create labels on your smartphone or tablet and print wirelessly from the Brother Design n Craft full colour label printer. Unleash your creativity by choosing your favourite fonts, clipart, frames and photos to include on your labels.
AirPrint for easy photo printing
AirPrint is a technology from Apple that helps you create full-quality prints without the need to download or install drivers. Print photos from your camera roll directly to the Brother Design n Craft using your iPhone or iPad’s Wi-Fi connection.
Create labels to the length required
The Design n Craft printer uses continuous length rolls in an easy-to-load cartridge. This gives you total creative freedom to design and print labels up to 420mm in length. Plus the built-in cutter ensures a clean cut, every time.
Range of label widths
Available in 9, 12, 19, 25 and 50mm widths to offer maximum flexibility. Despite their compact size each label roll is 5 metres in length, long enough for even the most demanding of labelling tasks.
