bthouse Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 For those of you who use labels with patterns or colored backgrounds on things like lotions and scent shots, do you buy colored labels somewhere or print the backgrounds on a home printer. I have been using just white labels and print at home but would love to do something more classy looking with colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Print all colors myself on white or clear stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandlekrazy Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Ditto, have an HP CP1525nw color laser printer. The cartridges are expensive but the colors last me almost 2 years and black about a year. I use it for everything I print from my computer, not just labels.

SuzyK Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I buy the blank labels and print at home. My labels are very colorful. I'd love to eventually have a laser printer but I have an inkjet now and it does the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those ink jet printers are cheapbut the cartridges are expensive unless you are refilling them. My laser was $239.00, I don't believe they make that model but a replacement model around the same price is avail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a set not that long ago and already need to buy more because I've been so busy. I guess it's time to look into the laser one! Thank you!
