No warm up time for ink jets? My Canon i560 inkjet does a little dance
that lasts for over a minute when it first turns on. My Lexmark laser
takes maybe 5 seconds from power on switch to when it starts printing.
:-) Guess we should be careful with generalizations! (And there's no
comparison for print speed. Now I'm making generalizations!)

Yes, you can just print one or two labels at a time and save the rest on the
sheet for later. Very easy to do at the PRINT LABELS window.
