The Brother PT-1170 (also searched as PT-1170, PT 1170 or PT1170) is a classic Brother P-touch label printer designed for quick, durable labeling at home, in the office, and in light technical use. It’s valued for simple operation and reliable results—provided you choose the right cartridge for Brother PT-1170, meaning the right thermal transfer tape that matches your needs (width, color, and tape type).
Thermal Transfer Cartridges for Brother PT-1170 – what you’re really buying
In this category you’ll find Cartridges Thermal Transfer for the Brother PT-1170: primarily Brother TZe tape (standard and specialty) and Brother HSe heat shrink tube solutions. Unlike liquid ink for printer Brother PT-1170 or toner for printer Brother PT-1170 (this model doesn’t use those), PT-1170 labels are created using thermal transfer technology—so the key “consumable” is the tape cartridge for Brother PT-1170.
These tapes are chosen for clear readability and long-term durability. Depending on the variant, they can resist smudging, moisture, everyday abrasion, and temperature changes—making them ideal for labeling folders, shelves, cables, chargers, storage boxes, tools, and equipment.
Ribbons, Laminated Tapes, Flexi Tapes and Heat Shrink Tubes – choose the right material
We offer several tape families so you can match the label to the surface and environment:
Laminated Tapes (TZe) – the most universal option for crisp, long-lasting labels; great for offices, kitchens, garages, and storage areas.
Flexi Tapes (TZe-FX) – designed to wrap around uneven or curved items (for example cables, wires, tubes); they adhere well and stay readable.
Heat Shrink Tubes (HSe) – perfect for cable identification; after shrinking, the marking looks professional and stays put.
Ribbons / standard label tapes – practical day-to-day labeling, with many color combinations and widths to choose from.
Common widths in our selection include 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 18 mm and 24 mm, so you can pick a narrow label for small items or a wider label for clear signage.

Compatible vs Original OEM – how to choose (and what really matters)
When you buy a cartridge for Brother PT-1170, the first decision is whether to choose Original OEM or Compatible:
Original OEM cartridges are produced by Brother and are a safe, predictable choice for users who always stick to manufacturer-branded supplies.
Compatible cartridges from our DrTusz.pl offer are designed to match the PT-1170 requirements closely. They deliver labels that are just as practical and durable in everyday use—while helping you reduce labeling costs without sacrificing quality.
What to check before adding to cart:
Tape code (e.g., TZe-231, TZe-221, HSe-211) – it defines the type and color combination.
Width – 6/9/12 mm for small items; 18/24 mm for higher visibility and longer text.
Surface & use case – flat surfaces (laminated tape), curved objects (flexi tape), cables (heat shrink tube).
Color contrast – black on white is universal; black on yellow for visibility; metallics (silver/gold) for premium identification.
Typical Brother PT-1170 user issues – and our practical solutions
Customers using Brother P-touch devices like the PT-1170 often report a few recurring problems. In most cases, the right tape and a couple of habits solve them quickly:
Label doesn’t stick well – clean the surface (dust/grease reduces adhesion). For cables or curved items, choose Flexi Tape (TZe-FX) rather than standard tape.
Text looks faint or uneven – make sure the cartridge is seated properly and use a fresh, well-stored tape. If you label in cold environments, allow tape and device to reach room temperature.
Edges peel over time – select a width that gives more contact area, press the label firmly after applying, and consider laminated variants for harsher conditions.
Need professional cable marking – choose HSe heat shrink tube for a secure, workshop-grade result.
