Hello everyone,
So I received my 6570 labels. I did a test print with my Canon MP620
printer. Results are ok but not amazing. The code prints completely on the
label so it is usable. It still is not centered so I still have some work to
do to figure out my printer.
I need to practice a bit more with these labels before I can report
back.
Thank you Nancy for the tip about the Avery numbering system. I was given some
labels that start with the number 5 so now I know those should be used on a
laser printer. Meanwhile my 6570 labels can be used on either Ink or laser.
It is hard to improve my printer set up skills as I cannot see the results and
my sighted helpers have limited patience when it comes to printer issues.
Still it is working well over all.
