Rollo 4x6 Fanfold Direct Thermal Labels (500)
Fanfold stacks are the easiest label format for external-feed printers: no holder, no roll clearance, and the stack sits flat behind the printer. Rollo's 500-label stack is documented as direct thermal, perforated, BPA-free and FSC certified.

Analysis
Why fanfold suits small desks
A 500-label stack takes a 4 × 6 in patch of desk behind the printer—about the same as a roll holder, but without the holder's hardware. See roll vs fanfold.
Compatibility notes and common mistakes
Any direct thermal printer that accepts 4 in media and fanfold feed can use these in principle; only Rollo printers are named by Rollo.
- Buying for a thermal-transfer printer without a ribbon.
- Feeding the stack at an angle.
