Garden Center Loop Tags (Tree Tags)

Windward Software

Loop Tag Formats

There are three main formats of loop label.

Tag with holes to the right Tag with holes on bottom (exits the printer first) Tag with holes on top (exits the printer last)

These labels come in several sizes. The most common being 7 inch long by 1 inch wide, or 10 inch long by 1inch wide.

In this example you can see that even though the tag is 10 inches long, the actual printable area is only about 6 3/4 inches . 2 1/4 inches for the tear off, and 4 1/2 inches for the main tag. The rest is part of the loop. In this, you are limited to the width of the print head which is usually 4 or 5 inches wide.

In the case of the tags with the holes on the top or bottom, they usually come in a 4 across or 5 across configuration. Again, this is because most printers have either a 4 inch or 5 inch wide thermal print head.

Also, In most cases these labels are 1 inch wide regardless of their orientation. However, if you need loop tags that are wider than 1 inch, you would be limited to a 3 across or 4 across depending on the width of your thermal print head.
