Brother Custom Self-Inking Stamp 2260 – 0.87″ × 2.36″
Professional Custom Stamp for Business, Office & Personal Use
Create clean, professional and consistent impressions with the Brother Custom Stamp 2260.
With an impression area of approximately 0.87″ × 2.36″ (22 × 60 mm), the Brother 2260 is an excellent medium-sized rectangular stamp for business information, addresses, names and titles, company logos, signatures, approval messages and everyday office use.
Your stamp is professionally customised using the information or artwork you provide and arrives pre-inked and ready for use.
There is no separate ink pad required.
Important: Is This a Self-Inking Stamp?
The Brother 2260 is commonly described as a self-inking stamp because you can repeatedly stamp documents without using a separate ink pad.
Technically, Brother classifies it as a pre-inked stamp.
Unlike a traditional mechanical self-inking stamp that rotates between an internal ink pad and the paper, the Brother StampCreator system stores ink within the stamp itself. Ink passes through the customised stamp surface when pressure is applied.
The result is a compact and convenient stamp with:
- No separate ink pad
- No rotating stamp mechanism
- Pre-installed ink
- Refillable ink reservoir
- Quick and simple stamping

What Can I Put on My Brother 2260 Stamp?
The Brother 2260 provides a useful rectangular area that works particularly well when you need several lines of information without moving to one of the larger stamp sizes.
It can be customised for many different purposes.
Business Stamps

DIGITAL WAVES TT
Technology & Digital Products

Name & Title Stamps
The 2260 is also suitable for professional name stamps.
For example:

JANE SMITH

These are useful for:
- Offices
- Schools

Additional information can also be included where space allows.
For example:

Date: __________
Accounts Department
Can I Add My Company Logo?
Yes.
A company logo can be incorporated into your custom stamp.
You can request:
- Logo only
- Logo with company name
- Logo with contact information
- Logo with address
- Logo with name and title
- Other suitable combinations
For best results, provide the highest-quality version of your logo available.
Suitable file formats may include:
- PNG
- JPG/JPEG
- Other high-resolution image formats
Simple, high-contrast artwork generally produces the best stamp impression.
Will My Logo Print in Full Colour?
No.
A custom rubber stamp does not reproduce a full-colour digital image in the same way as a printer.
Your design is converted into a stamp-friendly image and the entire impression is produced using the ink colour selected for the stamp.
For example:
If you order a black ink stamp, both your text and logo will stamp in black.
If you order a blue ink stamp, both your text and logo will stamp in blue.
Can Detailed Logos Be Used?
Many logos work very well, but extremely detailed artwork may need to be simplified.
Very small details, gradients, shadows, photographs and extremely thin lines may not reproduce as clearly as:
- Bold logos
- Clear text
- Simple graphics
- High-contrast artwork
- Vector-style designs
If your logo is complicated, it may need to be converted into a simpler stamp-friendly version.
Can I Use a Photograph?
The Brother StampCreator system can work with image-based artwork, but photographs are generally not ideal for a normal business stamp.
For the cleanest professional results, we recommend:
- Text
- Logos
- Signatures
- Line artwork
- Simple graphics
instead of highly detailed photographs.
How Much Information Can Fit on a 2260 Stamp?
The impression area is approximately:
22 mm × 60 mm
or:
0.87″ × 2.36″
There is no universal maximum number of lines.
The amount of information that can fit depends on:
- Length of each line
- Font size
- Font style
- Number of lines
- Logo size
- Spacing
- Layout
- Complexity of the design
A typical business stamp may comfortably contain several short lines of information, but attempting to fit too much information can make the stamp difficult to read.
Our recommendation:
Keep the design as simple as possible.
A clean stamp containing the most important information will usually look more professional than a crowded stamp with very small lettering.
If you need considerably more information, consider selecting a larger Brother stamp size.
Is the 2260 Suitable for a Business Stamp?
Yes.
The Brother 2260 is one of the most versatile sizes for everyday business use.
It provides enough horizontal space for business information while remaining compact.
It is particularly suitable for:
- Small businesses
- Sole traders
- Offices
- Professionals
- Schools
- Clubs
- Churches
- Associations
- Government departments
- Administrative offices
- Accounting departments
- Warehouses
- Retail businesses
Can I Use It for a Signature Stamp?
Yes.
A clear image of a signature can be converted into a custom stamp design.
For best results, provide a clear, high-resolution signature on a clean background.
Important
A signature stamp should be stored securely and controlled by the authorised user.
Having a person’s signature reproduced on a stamp does not automatically make its use legally valid for every document.
Customers are responsible for determining whether a signature stamp is acceptable for their intended transaction, document or organisation.
Can It Be Used as a Company Stamp?
Yes, it can be customised with your company’s:
- Name
- Registration information
- Address
- Contact details
- Logo
- Other relevant information
However, a custom stamp should not automatically be considered a legal company seal or officially authorised seal simply because it contains company information.
If a bank, government department, court, regulatory authority or other organisation requires a specific type of official stamp or seal, confirm their requirements before ordering.
Does the Stamp Require a Separate Ink Pad?
No.
The Brother 2260 is pre-inked.
You simply:
- Position the stamp over the document.
- Press down evenly.
- Lift the stamp.
- Allow the impression to dry.
There is no need to press the stamp into a separate ink pad before each impression.
Does the Stamp Arrive With Ink?
Yes.
Your completed custom stamp is supplied pre-inked and ready for normal use.
A separate traditional ink pad is not required.
Can the Brother 2260 Be Refilled?
Yes.
The Brother StampCreator stamps are designed to be re-inked when the impression begins to become faint or incomplete.
Compatible refill ink can be added through the stamp’s refill ports.
Important
Use the correct compatible ink.
Using an unsuitable ink may damage the stamp or affect the quality of the impression.
Refill ink is not automatically included with the stamp unless specifically stated on the product page.
How Long Will the Stamp Last?
Brother states that its StampCreator stamps can last for up to approximately 50,000 impressions with proper re-inking.
This does not mean you will necessarily receive 50,000 impressions from the initial ink fill.
The 50,000 figure refers to the potential service life of the stamp when it is properly maintained and re-inked as necessary.
Actual results can vary depending on:
- Frequency of use
- Design
- Size of stamped areas
- Ink consumption
- Re-inking
- Storage
- Stamping pressure
- Surface being stamped
- General care
How Do I Know When It Needs More Ink?
The stamp may require re-inking when:
- The impression becomes noticeably lighter
- Some areas begin appearing incomplete
- Previously dark areas become faint
- Impression quality decreases despite even stamping pressure
Do not automatically add excessive ink.
Too much ink can result in:
- Bleeding
- Smearing
- Leakage
- Blurred impressions
How Is the Stamp Re-Inked?
Brother’s refill process uses the refill ports on the stamp.
When the impression becomes faint:
- Remove the stamp holder/handle as required.
- Add the appropriate Brother-compatible refill ink to the refill holes.
- Allow the ink to distribute through the stamp.
- Test the stamp on scrap paper.
- Resume normal use once the impression is clean.
Brother specifically warns against using unsuitable ink because it can damage the stamp.
What Ink Colour Can I Choose?
Select from the available ink colour options shown on this product page.
Brother manufactures compatible 2260 stamps in several colours, including:
- Black
- Blue
- Red
- Green
However, availability from Digital Waves TT depends on the options currently displayed as available for purchase.
The colour you select will be used for the complete stamp impression.
Can Different Colours Be Used on One Stamp?
No.
A single Brother 2260 stamp normally produces its entire impression in one ink colour.
For example, you cannot normally have:
- A blue logo with black text
on the same standard stamp.
You would need separate stamps if different ink colours are required.
What Surfaces Can I Stamp?
The Brother 2260 is primarily designed for normal office and document stamping.
It is ideal for materials such as:
- Standard paper
- Envelopes
- Invoices
- Receipts
- Forms
- Letters
- Documents
- Suitable paper-based packaging
- Card and similar absorbent paper materials
Can I Stamp Glossy Paper?
Possibly, but results can vary.
Glossy or coated paper absorbs ink more slowly than normal office paper.
This means the impression may take longer to dry and can potentially smear if touched too quickly.
Testing is recommended.
Can I Stamp Plastic?
Plastic is generally not the primary intended surface for this type of stamp.
Because many plastics are non-porous, the ink may:
- Take longer to dry
- Smear
- Rub off
- Fail to adhere permanently
If you specifically need a permanent stamp for plastic, contact us before ordering so the intended application can be considered.
Can I Stamp Metal?
Standard Brother stamp ink should not automatically be assumed to provide permanent results on metal.
Metal is generally non-porous, which can result in slower drying and easier smearing.
A specialised ink system may be more appropriate for permanent industrial marking applications.
Can I Stamp Glass?
Glass is also non-porous and is not the main intended application for this standard office stamp.
The impression may take significantly longer to dry or may smear.
Is the Ink Waterproof?
Do not assume that the standard stamp impression is waterproof, weatherproof or permanent on every material.
Performance depends heavily on the surface being stamped.
For general office paperwork and normal paper documents, the stamp is ideal.
For specialised outdoor, industrial or permanent marking applications, contact us before ordering.
Why Does Paper Type Matter?
Different materials absorb ink differently.
Very porous paper can absorb ink quickly and potentially make a design appear slightly larger or less sharp.
Very glossy or non-porous materials may not absorb the ink quickly enough and can therefore smear.
For the best everyday results, use the stamp on normal office-quality paper and similar materials.
How Clear Is the Stamp?
Brother’s StampCreator system supports up to 600 dpi, allowing suitable text, signatures, logos and graphics to be reproduced with excellent detail.
Actual impression quality also depends on:
- Original artwork quality
- Font choice
- Font size
- Design complexity
- Ink level
- Paper type
- Stamping technique
- Amount of information placed on the stamp
What Font Size Should I Use?
There is no single required font size.
However, very small text can become difficult to read when stamped.
The ideal font size depends on:
- Number of lines
- Amount of information
- Font style
- Logo size
- Overall design
When possible, prioritise readability instead of fitting unnecessary information into the available space.
How Do I Get the Best Stamp Impression?
For best results:
1. Use a Flat Surface
Place the document on a firm, flat surface.
2. Position the Stamp Carefully
Make sure the stamp is correctly aligned before applying pressure.
3. Press Straight Down
Apply firm, even pressure.
4. Avoid Rocking
Do not excessively rock the stamp from side to side.
5. Lift Straight Up
Lift the stamp directly away from the document.
6. Allow the Ink to Dry
Give the impression a moment to dry before touching or stacking documents.
What If My Stamp Looks Blurry?
A blurred impression may result from:
- Too much pressure
- Rocking the stamp
- Excess ink
- Very porous paper
- Glossy/non-porous surfaces
- Extremely bold lettering
- Text positioned too closely together
- An overly detailed design
Try the stamp on clean standard office paper before assuming there is a problem with the stamp.
What If the Stamp Is Too Light?
If the stamp has been used extensively and begins producing a faint impression, it may need to be re-inked.
If the stamp is newly received, make several test impressions on scrap paper first.
How Should I Store My Brother Stamp?
To maintain performance:
- Keep it in a clean location
- Avoid excessive heat
- Avoid prolonged direct sunlight
- Prevent dust from collecting on the stamp surface
- Keep the stamp properly assembled
- Avoid storing it in a manner that encourages ink leakage
- Do not expose it to harsh cleaning chemicals
- Use compatible refill ink only
Can I Clean the Stamp?
Avoid aggressive solvents or abrasive cleaning methods.
If the stamp face becomes dusty or dirty, it should be handled gently.
Do not scrape or damage the customised rubber surface.
How Do I Submit My Custom Stamp Information?
When placing your order, provide the exact information you want on the stamp.
This may include:
- Business name
- Personal name
- Position/title
- Address
- Telephone number
- Email address

Yes.
