Custom Stickers Factory (customstickersfactory.com) prints 3 x 3 in thermal-compatible labels, with each piece measuring 76.2 x 76.2 mm (7.62 x 7.62 cm) at the outer edge. It covers about 10% of a US Letter page, which is 8.5 x 11 in. This size is quoted after review. The minimum is 1,000 pieces per artwork and specification, and you approve a proof before printing.
Key takeaways
Custom Stickers Factory has a minimum order of 1,000 pieces for Thermal-compatible labels, per artwork and manufacturing specification.
- Material & format
- Thermal paper or top-coated film. Rolls of individual labels.
- Size & quantity
- 3 × 3 in (76.2 × 76.2 mm) is the requested outer bounding size. Count individual labels, not rolls. Confirm the core, unwind direction and label spacing.
- Intended uses
- Warehouse identification; Shipping labels; Product information. Confirm suitability for the actual surface and conditions.
- Before ordering
- Direct thermal and thermal transfer are different production routes. This specification needs a quote. A worksheet or family listing does not establish a price.

TAKE IT OFF SCREEN
Print. Measure. Check.
The SVG has physical inch dimensions and a 1-inch calibration bar. Print at 100%, disable fit-to-page and measure the bar before using the outline.
Worksheet canvas: 8.5 × 11 in. The worksheet uses a US Letter canvas. Check your printer margins and scaling settings.
Size reference only. No production bleed, safe area, die line, cut spacing or availability is approved.
Thermal paper or top-coated film
Prepare this brief.
Label constructions for direct thermal or thermal transfer equipment. Select the print method before choosing stock, roll dimensions and sensing requirements.
- Measure one label. Quantity counts individual labels, not rolls.
- Record which edge leads, unwind direction, core, label gap and printer or applicator model. These are not set by rotating this worksheet.
At 300 pixels per inch, a raster example for these bounds is 900 × 900 pixels. Confirm the required resolution and smallest detail before production.
Checks for thermal-compatible labels
- Direct thermal and thermal transfer are different production routes.
- Confirm printer model, ribbon, core, winding, sensing and service conditions.
