Material Types That Cause Problems in the BBP11 and BBP12 Printers

What material types can the BBP11 and BBP12 printers use?

The BBP11 and BBP12 printers can use the following material types: 

• Gapped
• Notched
• Continuous
• Minimum Label Height is 0.39"

• Sleeve / Permasleeve / B342 material is NOT recommended. White ribbon with notched media or clear die-cut media may not calibrate. 
• "-SC" - 1" diameter Small Core label rolls are recommended.  
• If you use standard THT 3" diameter core label rolls, a  Media Holder (BBP12-U) is recommended to hold the label roll outside of the printer. If a 3" roll is left to sit in the printer, its weight may not allow the labels to feed to the print head correctly. 
• Materials with multiple labels per row can have difficulty being detected by the gap sensor: Some label parts that have multiple labels per row (Such as THT-12 and THT-163) do not work in the BBP11 printer
