sandyrose Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I've been finding it pretty pricey to have professional labels done. I really don't want to print them myself, too much of a PITA. I don't mind designing them though.So I called Kinko's (the last place I expected to find a cheap deal) and if I send my design t othem in a .pdf file, they have can print full sheets for me for .50 each. I can fit around 4 or 5 labels on each sheet and then buy a paper cutter likr they use for scrapbooking and cut them out. That makes my labels .25 or less. I was looking at $1.00 each for professionally done. Has anyone tried doing it this way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockmonkey Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Is that for black & white labels, and are they waterproof (if needed for your products)?If you're doing any kind of volume, it will be a giant pain in the butt to bother cutting them out. Also, if you're cutting them yourself, you're likely to get some jagged edges now and then, which look unprofessional.Before I invested in a major purchased with Kinko's I would buy some label stock and try cutting them out first to see how they come out.

queenmama1 Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I burned my PDF file to a CD, took it to Kinko's along with my label stock, and they printed my colored labels right out for me on my own sheets. Worked great.Sandi GGoodStuff Bath & Body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
