Brother QL-1100c Wide-Format Label Printer, 4-inch, 300 dpi, 110 mm/s, Auto Cutter, USB, Black
Brother QL-1100c — 4-inch direct thermal desktop label printer, 300 dpi
The Brother QL-1100c is a 4-inch desktop label printer that prints by direct thermal at 300 dpi and up to 110 mm/s, made for shipping labels including 4 × 6 in marketplace and FBA labels, address and file labels.
It connects over USB 2.0. Labels are designed in Brother's free P-touch Editor or printed straight from Word, Excel and Outlook through the Office add-in; SDKs are available for custom apps. It is a compact, single-user or workgroup printer for counters, packing benches, back offices and small warehouses rather than a 24/7 industrial line printer.
In practice it sits between a PC or POS terminal and a roll of labels: you design labels in label software such as BarTender, or print them straight from your ERP, WMS, e-shop back office or courier portal. Label size, gap and darkness are set once in the driver or by a quick media calibration, and after that every print lands in the same place on the label.
What's in the Box
- QL-1100c label printer
- 62 mm black-on-white continuous label roll (8 m)
- Large shipping die-cut labels (41 labels)
- USB cable and power cord
- User guide and quick setup guide
What It Means in Practice
- Brother DK labels and continuous tape up to 103.6 mm wide — wide enough for 4-inch shipping labels, with the built-in cutter trimming continuous tape to any length up to 3 m.
- At up to 110 mm/s a 150 mm long label prints in roughly 1.4 seconds, so batches of a few hundred labels are a matter of minutes.
- With USB 2.0 only, it prints from the PC it is cabled to; to use it from several PCs, share it from that PC or choose the network version.
- No ribbon to buy or change: running cost is the labels only, and loading a new roll takes seconds.
- PDF Crop Print takes a shipping-label PDF from Amazon FBA or a courier portal and prints just the label area, without manual cropping.
What Will Not Work
- Non-Brother label rolls and media wider than 103.6 mm.
- Ribbons and thermal transfer-only labels — this model has no ribbon mechanism.
- Colour printing, photos or ordinary A4 office printing — it prints one colour (black) on label media.
- Network, Wi-Fi or phone printing — the QL-1100c is USB only; the QL-1110NWBc adds LAN, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
