Brother PT-E510 label tape compatibility
Short answer
The PT-E510 takes Brother TZe tape cassettes in 3.5 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 18 mm, 24 mm widths[1].
Brother's US documentation also lists:
- HGe cassettes: 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 18 mm, 24 mm[1]
- HSe heat shrink tube (2:1) cassettes: 5.8 mm, 8.8 mm, 11.7 mm, 17.7 mm, 23.6 mm[1]
- HSe heat shrink tube (3:1) cassettes: 5.2 mm, 9 mm, 11.2 mm, 21 mm[1]
- Maximum TZe tape width: 24 mm. Wider TZe cassettes will not fit.
- Same width is not proof of fit: the tape family (e.g. TZe vs. M or HSe) must also be supported.

How to read these labels
Inferred from manufacturer specs means Brother's US page lists this model's tape family, width and tape type, and Brother says its TZe tapes of that width work across those models. It is not a test we ran.
