Hi Donna

I'll echo George here. I thought long and hard at spending eighty quid plus just to print a label. But now I have one how did I live without it. And the point George makes is a good one about one off labels. A sheet of A4 labels containing however many gets hard once it's been started so it is easier to write them not print them. Not in itself easy when you can't see the label you're writing on. Nah I now find the money was well spent and I'm very happy with my machine and it gets more use all the time as I find more and more tasks to keep it busy.

Hi Donna,

I'm not Kevin, but we do have 3 of these labellers in the
office, which are very heavily used.

What is so special about these label printers, be they
Dymo's, Seiko's, or any other personal labeller of their
type, is that they can print "one off" labels.  The
alternative is usually A4 sheets of labels, and that gets
messy.

Software does come with the printers, but using Word is not
difficult.  However, it does pay to set up a label template
for on-going use.

You do need to consider what maximum size of label you want
to use.  The cheapest ones will only do labels about 1 inch
wide, where the larger ones take at least two widths.

The printers themselves do not use ink.  They use what is
known as a "Thermal Transfer Process".  Although this means
you do have to buy the proper labels, which are not overly
expensive, you never have to worry about running out of ink.

Once you get one of these, you'll be surprised how
indispensable it becomes.  If you tried to take away any
from our office, you'd get your fingers cut off!  (Smile)

George.

Kevin, please could you tell me how dymo label is better
than
just doing the labels in Word, cos if it's good I might
get it.
