MS-828 Template


The MS-828 is a removable label that is 1/2″ wide and 1-3/4″ long. The text has been given a vertical orientation so that you can fit your text. These labels have small margins, and your particular label may not be able to physically print on the leftmost, rightmost, topmost and bottom most part of the sheet. They were originally designed for hand applications. If you need a template, you can easily create your own.   If you know you can safely print these labels on your printer, then you can use the above label.

Color Coding Labels, Assorted Colors


We’ve got great color coding labels They’re removable, and there are 4 assorted primary colors on each sheet: Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue.  There are so many uses for these labels.  You can use them for estate sales, or use them to mark inventory according to the date received.  They can be used as price markers for antiques, or really any item that is unique and needs special attention.

Color Coding Label


Here’s a tip that should help when creating templates for labels on small sheets. When you create a template for color coding labels on a small sheet, the labels usually have very little margins on all sides of the sheet. The top, bottom, right and left margins can be as little as 1/64″ (.015625″). Since Microsoft Word 2007 label Templates are really just tables containing cells, and these tables take up the whole page on small sheeted color coding labels, you’ll discover that Microsoft Word will automatically force a second empty page. The reason for this is that after a table, Microsoft Word inserts a paragraph mark. Can you delete the paragraph mark after the table? If you can, let me know, but in the mean time, there are solutions. The illustration below shows how I look when my face is superimposed on a color coding label template that I have just created only to find that I can’t get rid of the paragraph mark, to which the arrow is pointing. The easiest fix for this is to select a tiny font size right before the paragraph mark, but after the table. Choose a font for which you can input 1 as the font size. Another way to accomplish this is to put the cursor just to the left of the paragraph mark, and right click to show the pop up list, and pick Paragraph. In the Indents and Spacing section, make the “At:” as small as you can, I entered .06, which worked fine. And voila! Success!

MS-620 Removable Label Template


We’ve had so many calls for this template so we finally made one. This is the MS-620. Be aware that that this label was originally designed for hand application, and they are removable labels. Add that to the small sheet size, and there is a chance that these labels might come off in your printer. Although many of our customers have used these labels in their printers, we do not recommend using them in laser or inkjet printers. If you decide that you are going to go ahead and print with the MS-620 anyway, another thing to consider is the direction of the text which you will type in each cell of the label. Instead of trying to print landscape, just change the orientation of the text in each cell to run vertically. Right click in any cell. A dialogue menu will pop up. Select “Text Direction”, and select one of the two vertical text options (on the left select text that is read from bottom to top, on the right, select text that is read from top to bottom)

Removable Color Coding Labels Application


When considering using Color Coding Labels for certain applications, be sure you are planning to put them on compatible surfaces. Our removable labels stick well to glass and ceramic surfaces. Sometimes they stick a little too well, because the surface is so smooth, it creates a fantastic sealing surface for the glue to stick to. It’s usually not a big deal to take the label off, and sometimes there might be a little bit of glue left on the smooth surface that you have to clean off. Also, if the label is left on for say, several years, all bets are off on remove-ability. They labels might adhere even more to the surface, or they might fall of depending on the surface. When applying the color coding label to any surface, make sure the surface is dry and clean and free of dust and dirt. As always, extreme environments are not good for labels. Extreme environments include extreme cold, extreme heat, extended exposure to sunlight, high humidity, or exposure to rain or steam.

3/4″ Diameter labels


Ok, I know we just posted on this subject a few posts ago, but we got a few more calls on making a template for the MR-1212 labels. They are on small sheets, and the labels are removable. They are marketed as non-machinable, or for hand written applications only, but folks have been printing on them. There are some that will have no problem printing this label, but there are some printers for which the labels might become detached, or the color may run slightly onto the fuser unit in some laser printers, so we don’t recommend you use a printer to print on these labels unless you know the labels will not come off in the printer, or the colors will not run. We whipped up a quick template, and you’ll have to adjust the cell margins and such for your application. So if you know your printer can handle these labels, here is template:
