2.25" x 0.6875" Roll Labels | Blank Labels for Roll Printers

2.25 x 0.6875 blank inkjet roll labels with 2.25 inches across the roll and 0.6875 inches into the roll

Our 2.25" x 0.6875" blank inkjet roll labels are a short, wide rectangular label size designed for compact labeling applications that need a narrow height with extra horizontal space. This size is useful for small product identification, short barcode labels, QR code labels, retail labels, warning labels, price labels, inventory labels, lot number labels, and packaging applications where a low-profile label is preferred.

For this roll label size, the 2.25" dimension runs across the roll and the 0.6875" dimension feeds into the roll. This orientation matters because roll-fed inkjet label printers must be able to accept the label width across the roll. A 2.25" x 0.6875" roll label is not the same as a 0.6875" x 2.25" roll label when supplied on rolls.

These labels are designed for compatible roll-fed inkjet label printers and are available in multiple roll configurations and material options. Material, roll size, core size, outside diameter, adhesive, and other available choices are selected on the product page after choosing this label size.

Available Roll Sizes & Configurations

This label size is available in several roll configurations to fit different inkjet roll label printers and production needs. Before ordering, confirm that your printer can accept the selected core size, outside roll diameter, label width, roll direction, and sensing method.

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

Smaller rolls are often preferred for compact desktop inkjet label printers, while larger roll configurations provide more labels per roll and reduce the number of roll changes during higher-volume printing.

2.25" x 0.6875" Roll Label Orientation

Roll label orientation matters because the first number is the width across the roll and the second number is the length in the feed direction. This helps determine whether the label will fit your printer and feed correctly during printing.

2.25" = width across the roll
0.6875" = length into the roll
Shape: Rectangle
Format: Inkjet roll labels
Printer type: Compatible inkjet roll-fed label printers

This orientation is important for Epson ColorWorks, Primera, Afinia, and other inkjet roll label printers because the printer must support a 2.25" label width across the roll. If your design, printer, or applicator requires 0.6875" across the roll instead, you would need the reverse orientation.

Common Uses for 2.25" x 0.6875" Labels

A 2.25" x 0.6875" label works well when you need a compact label with a wider printable area and a short height. This size is often chosen for barcodes, QR codes, pricing, product ID numbers, small warning messages, inventory tracking, lot numbers, and small package identification where a taller label would take up too much space.

Designed for Inkjet Roll Label Printers Only

These 2.25" x 0.6875" labels are supplied on rolls and are made for compatible inkjet roll label printers. They are not designed for standard 8.5" x 11" desktop sheet printers.

When printing inkjet roll labels, the label size is typically entered in your printer driver, printer software, or label design program. You choose the correct media settings, enter the label width and height, and design one label at a time.

Not for desktop sheet-fed inkjet printers
Not for desktop sheet-fed laser printers

No Template Needed for 2.25" x 0.6875" Roll Labels

Roll labels are set up differently than sheet labels. Sheet labels often require a Word, PDF, Illustrator, or Canva template because the label positions must match a fixed 8.5" x 11" sheet layout.

With inkjet roll labels, the printer software controls the label setup. You enter the label width and height, choose the correct media settings, and design within the label area. Because of this, a downloadable sheet-style template is not required for 2.25" x 0.6875" roll labels.

If you are printing sheet labels instead of roll labels, visit our label templates page for downloadable sheet label templates.
