1.625" x 1.25" Roll Labels | Blank Roll Labels for Inkjet & Laser Roll Printers

Our 1.625" x 1.25" blank roll labels provide a compact rectangular format for product identification, barcodes, QR codes, small packaging, inventory tracking, retail labeling, and variable data. The slightly wider 1.625-inch dimension gives you more horizontal print space than a 1.5-inch-wide label while keeping the overall label compact.

These labels are supplied on rolls with the 1.625" dimension running across the roll and the 1.25" dimension feeding into the roll. This orientation works well for small containers, boxes, bottles, parts, promotional items, and products that need a short rectangular label with enough room for branding and identification.

Choose from available roll label materials based on your printer, application, and desired appearance. White materials provide a versatile surface for text, logos, barcodes, and variable information. Gloss stocks can give product branding a more polished finish, while moisture-resistant synthetic materials are useful for applications where labels may encounter condensation, water, refrigeration, or frequent handling.

Available Roll Sizes & Configurations

Depending on the material and product configuration selected, 1.625" x 1.25" labels may be available in several roll sizes. Selecting the proper core size and outside roll diameter helps ensure compatibility with your printer and keeps the media feeding correctly.

• Mini Rolls: 2" core with a 4" outside diameter
• Standard Rolls: 3" core with a 6" outside diameter
• Double Capacity Rolls: 3" core with an 8" outside diameter
• Triple Capacity Rolls: 3" core with a 10" outside diameter

Smaller rolls are often used with desktop label printers, while larger-capacity rolls can reduce roll changes during longer production runs. Always confirm your printer's supported core size and maximum outside diameter before ordering.

Common Uses for 1.625" x 1.25" Roll Labels

The 1.625" x 1.25" format is compact enough for smaller products while still providing useful space for logos, barcodes, QR codes, product names, item numbers, and variable data.

• QR code labels
• SKU labels
• Inventory labels

Why Choose a 1.625" x 1.25" Roll Label?

This size provides a practical middle ground between very small identification labels and larger product labels. The 1.625-inch width gives you additional horizontal room for text or graphics, while the 1.25-inch feed length keeps the label compact.

The printable area can accommodate combinations of:

• Company logos
• Product names
• Barcodes
• QR codes
• SKU numbers
• Lot and batch information
• Serial numbers
• Short promotional messages
• Inventory data
• Variable product information

1.625" x 1.25" Labels for Barcodes & QR Codes

The compact rectangular format works well for many barcode and QR code applications where only limited supporting information is needed. Depending on the code format and final print size, you may be able to include a barcode or QR code along with an item number, SKU, product name, or short instruction.

Always maintain proper contrast and quiet zones around machine-readable codes, and test finished labels to confirm reliable scanning before beginning a full production run.

1.625" x 1.25" Labels for Small Products & Packaging

This size can work well on smaller boxes, bottles, jars, cosmetic containers, sample products, and retail packages where a larger label might cover too much of the product or interfere with the package design.

The slightly wider shape can also provide more room for a logo or product name than a narrow 1.5-inch label while keeping the label relatively short.

Designed for Compatible Roll Label Printers

These 1.625" x 1.25" labels are supplied on rolls and are intended for compatible roll-fed label printers. They are not designed for standard 8.5" x 11" sheet-fed desktop printers.

When configuring the label in your printer software, enter 1.625" as the width and 1.25" as the height or feed length.

• Designed for compatible roll-fed label printers
• Not intended for standard sheet-fed desktop inkjet printers
• Not intended for standard sheet-fed desktop laser printers
• No sheet-style template required
• Enter the individual label dimensions directly into your printer software

No Template Needed for 1.625" x 1.25" Roll Labels

Roll labels are normally configured by entering the individual label dimensions directly into the printer driver, label design software, or printer application. Unlike labels arranged on sheets, a downloadable sheet-style template is generally not required.

For this size, enter:

Width: 1.625"
Height / Feed Length: 1.25"

Keep important text, graphics, barcodes, and QR codes safely inside the die-cut edges. Printing several test labels before beginning a full production run can help verify alignment, sensing, and print quality.

Before Ordering 1.625" x 1.25" Roll Labels

Before purchasing this size, verify that your printer supports the label width, feed length, selected material, core size, outside roll diameter, and sensing method.

• Label size: 1.625" x 1.25"
• Roll orientation: 1.625" across the roll x 1.25" into the roll
• Printer type: Compatible roll-fed label printer
• Core size: Verify the required core size for your printer
• Outside diameter: Confirm the selected roll fits your printer or external unwinder
• Sensor type: Verify gap, black mark, or other sensing requirements

1.625" x 1.25" vs. 1.5" x 1.25" Roll Labels

The 1.625" x 1.25" size provides an additional 0.125 inch of width compared with a 1.5" x 1.25" label. That small increase can provide useful extra room for a logo, barcode, product name, or supporting text while keeping the feed length unchanged.

If your printer and product can accommodate the slightly wider roll, this size can be a good option when a 1.5-inch-wide label feels just a little too restrictive.

They are commonly used for product identification, barcodes, QR codes, small retail packaging, bottles, jars, cosmetics, inventory tracking, SKU labels, parts identification, promotional products, and variable data.

What does 1.625" across the roll and 1.25" into the roll mean?

The label measures 1.625 inches across the width of the roll and advances 1.25 inches through the printer for each label. This orientation is important when checking printer compatibility and setting up artwork.

Is a 1.625" x 1.25" roll label the same as a 1.25" x 1.625" label?

No. Although the finished labels have the same surface area, their orientation on the roll is different. A 1.625" x 1.25" label uses a wider roll and a shorter feed length, while a 1.25" x 1.625" configuration uses a narrower roll and a longer feed direction.

Are 1.625" x 1.25" labels good for barcodes?

Yes. This size can work well for compact barcode applications, especially when the design only needs a barcode plus limited supporting information such as an SKU or item number.

Can I print QR codes on 1.625" x 1.25" labels?

Yes, depending on the QR code size and complexity. Always test the finished printed code at its actual size to confirm reliable scanning.

Can these labels be used on bottles and jars?

Yes. The compact rectangular format can fit many small bottles, jars, cosmetic containers, and similar products. Measure the available labeling surface before ordering.

Are waterproof materials available for 1.625" x 1.25" roll labels?

Waterproof or weather-resistant material options may be available for products exposed to moisture, refrigeration, condensation, or frequent handling. Choose the material based on the environment in which the finished label will be used.

Can I order clear 1.625" x 1.25" roll labels?

Clear material options may be available for applications where a transparent appearance is preferred on glass, plastic, or other smooth containers.

Do I need a template for 1.625" x 1.25" roll labels?

Most compatible roll label printers allow the individual label dimensions to be entered directly into the printer software or label design program, so a sheet-style template is generally not required.

Will 1.625" x 1.25" labels fit my roll printer?

Compatibility depends on your printer specifications. Verify the supported media width, feed length, core size, outside roll diameter, sensing method, and material before ordering.

Will 1.625" x 1.25" labels work with Epson, Primera, or Afinia printers?

Many Epson, Primera, and Afinia roll label printers support a range of media sizes, but compatibility varies by model. Check the supported media width, roll diameter, core size, sensing requirements, and material before purchasing.

Can 1.625" x 1.25" labels be applied by hand?

Yes. These labels can be hand applied or used with compatible label application equipment when the roll specifications and orientation meet the equipment requirements.

Can I order custom printed 1.625" x 1.25" labels?
