" ...  and no problems "staying bent/wrapped around" The printer printed on them fine, no issues. ... But be sure to "label" the labels - the manufacturer's label only has a subtle difference from the "normal" labels unlike it's packaging (bright yellow highlight anyone).  ...  "

" ...  YouTube had several videos showing how to open the cartridge, pull the black tape spool out, tape the broken area of tape, re-thread the tape and close the cartridge casing making sure all the pins line up. ... The open cartridge slid off the table and spilled all 3 tape spools onto the floor, spools rolling and unwinding in every direction.  ...  "
