Brother ColAura VC500W Color Photo & Label Printer – Wireless, Inkless ZINK Printing

Overview

The Brother ColAura VC500W brings vibrant, full-color printing to labels, photos, and craft projects without any ink. Built for home and small-office use, this compact white device prints directly onto adhesive ZINK paper, delivering ready-to-use pieces that are water, tear, and smudge resistant. With wireless connectivity and easy mobile printing, you can design and print on demand from virtually anywhere.

What you can print

• Full-color labels for organization, storage, and gift-giving
• Photos, stickers, gift tags, and personalized greeting cards
• Craft and scrapbooking embellishments, home décor accents, and party favors
• Address labels, name tags, and small business identifiers

All projects benefit from the adhesive-backed ZINK paper, which carries color within the paper itself, eliminating ink stains or smears on the work surface. Printing creative items becomes a quick and tidy part of your routine, whether you’re labeling a home office, organizing craft supplies, or decorating for a celebration.

Inkless, color-rich printing

The ColAura system uses ZINK Zero Ink Technology, embedding color directly into the paper. This means vibrant, photo-quality results without cartridges, ribbons, or toner. The result is easy maintenance and a cleaner workspace, along with the flexibility to print multiple copies or experimental designs without extra equipment.

Connectivity and compatibility

Connect wirelessly from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Print from iOS, Android, Windows, or Mac devices, and take advantage of AirPrint compatibility for seamless mobile printing. The included software options, such as P-touch Editor, help you design a wide range of labels and layouts with professional-looking results.
