Oh Collective Wisdom! We use sheets of archival labels to label our document boxes in the archives. I think we buy them from one of the major library suppliers (Gaylord, etc.) although I can't say which for certain. The person who prints the most labels uses a desktop printer for this purpose. After three years of printing mostly labels, the printer will not feed the sheets into the printer any longer. I believe they tried replacing a roller or some such part - I know, I'm being real sketchy on details here, sorry - and it did not improve. You can't even get it to work if you manually feed the label sheet into the printer to help it get started. So, if you were going to buy a relatively-inexpensive - say under $300 - printer for this purpose, knowing you were going to be feeding labels into it all the time, what would you recommend? And, if you think it is ridiculous to expect a desktop printer to handle labels for years at that price, go ahead and say so and recommend whatever more expensive product you think is a good idea. We might just have unrealistic expectations for a desktop printer in that price range. Thanks much. Julie Julie C.
