2.5" Across the Roll and 6" Into the Roll
For this label size, the 2.5" dimension runs across the roll and the 6" dimension runs into the roll. This orientation is important when confirming that the labels will work with your printer.
A 2.5" x 6" roll label is therefore different from a 6" x 2.5" roll label. Your printer must support a media width of at least 2.5 inches.
Designed for Roll Label Printers Only
These 2.5" x 6" labels are supplied on rolls and are designed for compatible roll-fed label printers. They are not intended for standard 8.5" x 11" desktop sheet printers.
When printing roll labels, the label dimensions are typically entered directly into your printer software, label design program, or printer driver. Enter the label width as 2.5" and the label height or feed length as 6".

No Template Needed for 2.5" x 6" Roll Labels
Roll labels work differently than sheet labels. Sheet labels often require a Word, PDF, Illustrator, or Canva template because each label must align with a fixed sheet layout.
With roll labels, the printer software controls the label setup. Enter a width of 2.5" and a height or feed length of 6", choose the appropriate media settings, and design one label at a time. A downloadable sheet-style template is generally not required.
