We believe the Brother 2260 pre-inked notary stamp is the best money can buy

Featuring an ultra-crisp impression with no bleed-through, the Brother will yield up to 50,000 impressions when properly re-inked

When one of our business partners asked us to carry the Brother line, we were both skeptical and reluctant. Our skepticism stemmed from the fact that the stamps can be made fairly quickly - often in as little as 10 minutes from start-to-finish, in fact - which had us thinking they had to be cheap. Our reluctance was due to the very high price of parts, as well as the fact that you cannot make more than 1 stamp at a time. (Brother materials range from 2 - 4x as expensive as other stamps and the Brother stamp machine can only accommodate one.)

However, after seeing the impressions first-hand, we were sold. The Brother imprints are extremely crisp and, unlike many other pre-inked stamps, bleed is virtually non-existent, even after several weeks. So, we promptly ordered our first machine.

The Brother, like most pre-inked stamps, can be re-inked to yield additional impressions. If your stamp impression ever fades, simply remove the cap and add the appropriate number of Brother ink drops.

IMPORTANT: Re-inking with any other brand of ink will ruin your stamp, so please do not do this.

Massachusetts Frequently Asked Questions and Answers of Notary Publics

Do I have to get a new stamp or seal?

Notaries must have and use a stamp or seal. It can be either a black ink stamp, or a seal that makes an indentation on the paper. The stamp or seal must contain: (1) the notary public’s name; (2) the words "notary public," "Commonwealth of Massachusetts" or "Massachusetts," and "my commission expires on" or "my commission expires" or "commission expires" (all of which indicate the commission expiration date); and (3) a facsimile of the great seal of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If you are a current notary and have a seal that has all of this information except for the expiration date, you may obtain a black ink stamp that has your name and the expiration date. You then would use both the stamp and the seal each time you notarize a document.
