| The Brother PT-H101TB (also known as Brother P-touch, PT-H101TB, PT H101TB or PTH101TB) is a handy, reliable label maker designed for quick, everyday organisation. It’s a popular choice for homes, small offices, schools, workshops and anyone who wants clear labels for folders, shelves, cables, storage boxes or tools. To get the best results from this device, you simply need the right ribbon for Brother PT-H101TB—and in this category we’ve gathered both compatible and Original OEM options, so you can choose exactly what suits your needs and budget. Although many users search for “ink for Brother PT-H101TB”, this model uses thermal transfer ribbons (Brother TZe tapes). That means: no liquid ink, no toner powder—just a durable ribbon that prints crisp text and adheres well to many surfaces. Choosing the right ribbon for PT-H101TB is the key to labels that stay readable and look professional. Thermal transfer ribbons for everyday labelling – what you gain Labels created with a Brother P-touch PT-H101TB ribbon are made for practical use. The TZe format is valued for its neat appearance and good resistance in typical environments—perfect for items that are handled often or stored for longer periods. With the right tape width (for example 18 mm or 24 mm), you can print anything from small identifiers to bold, easy-to-spot markings. In this category you’ll find transparent tapes with coloured text, which are especially useful when you want a clean, “no-label” look on smooth surfaces: - Transparent / White – great for minimalistic labelling on glass, plastic containers, office binders and home organisation systems.
- Transparent / Red – ideal for warnings, priority tags, colour coding, compliance notes, or quick visual identification.

How to choose the right ribbon for Brother PT-H101TB When selecting a Brother PT-H101TB ribbon, focus on three practical elements: - Compatibility / tape series – this device uses TZe tapes (e.g., TZe-145, TZe-142, TZe-152). Pick the exact symbol to match your preferred colour and width.
- Width (18 mm vs 24 mm) – 18 mm is a balanced everyday option; 24 mm is excellent for bigger labels, storage areas, signage and improved readability from a distance.
- Text colour and background – transparent tape with white text looks subtle and modern; transparent tape with red text stands out for warnings and categorisation.
Original OEM vs compatible ribbon – what’s the difference? Original OEM ribbon Brother is produced by the printer manufacturer and is often chosen for standardisation in offices or for users who always stick to branded consumables. Compatible ribbon for Brother PT-H101TB is a smart choice when you want excellent print quality and reliable operation at a better price. In our offer, compatible ribbons are selected to be just as practical and dependable as originals—so you can label more, more often, without worrying about quality. Common user issues – and simple fixes With label makers such as the Brother P-touch PT-H101TB, most issues come down to tape selection and installation. Here are the most frequent problems customers mention: - Faded or uneven print – make sure you’re using the correct TZe ribbon for PT-H101TB and that the cassette is properly seated.
- Tape not feeding smoothly – check if the ribbon is snapped in correctly and the device is closed firmly.
- Labels peeling sooner than expected – clean and dry the surface before applying; for best adhesion, press the label down evenly along its full length.
- Choosing the wrong width – if your labels look cramped, switch to 18 mm or 24 mm depending on how much text you print and how visible it needs to be.
