Printhead cleaning cassette
The Brother CK1000 is a 50 mm wide cleaning cassette made for the VC-500W label and photo printer. It removes debris from the printhead to maintain consistent output quality across labels, photos and stickers. The cassette inserts directly into the printer and starts the cleaning cycle automatically. Using genuine Brother supplies helps protect the printer hardware over time.
For VC-500W owners needing routine maintenance
This cassette suits anyone who owns the VC-500W and wants to keep print quality sharp without manual intervention. It is not for users of other Brother label printers or for those who need label media rather than a cleaning accessory. Buyers looking for ink rolls, label rolls or a different cassette width will not find them here.
50 mm width matches full printhead
The cassette spans the full 50 mm print width so the entire printhead is cleaned in one pass. This single dimension determines whether the part fits and functions correctly in the VC-500W. No other specification governs compatibility for this consumable.

Questions about this item
Does the CK1000 cleaning cassette consume any power or generate heat while cleaning the VC-500W printhead?
The cassette is a passive roll that moves through the printer during its automatic cleaning cycle, so it draws no power and produces no heat of its own.
What printer model must I already own for the CK1000 cassette to work?
It is made exclusively for the Brother VC-500W Versatile Label and Photo Printer.
Can I use the CK1000 cassette with an older Brother label maker such as the QL or PT series?
No, the cassette fits only the VC-500W and is not compatible with other Brother label printers.
