Purchasing Your Labels Labels are available for almost every need. Avery, one of the manufacturers of labels, provides labels for envelopes, diskettes, shipping, return addresses, binder dividers, and name badges. Many of the labels come in white, clear, and colors. You will want to select the label that best meets your need. While your printer may be capable of printing labels, it may not be good for your printer.
Labels can peel off during the printing process and stick to various parts of the printer.
Manually feed the labels into the printer to prevent paper jams. When printing several pages of labels, print them in small batches. Print a master page of regular white paper on your printer and then use your copy machine to transfer the information to the label. A frequent choice is the Avery Standard 5160 Address Label. When creating labels, always verify, from the Envelopes and Labels dialog box, that the label size or style is the one you want.
