Additional label printing ideas

• Recycling: Print labels to help keep containers straight—one for paper, one for glass, etc.
• Storage: Get organized with inventory labels for the outside of your storage boxes.
• Yard sale: Print labels to use as price tags for items to sell.

For easy-to-read labels, use thinner fonts, avoid bold and curly-cues, and set the size to at least 8 pt.

Line up your label paper on top of your test print in front of a bright light or window to ensure that your text will be properly positioned when you print labels.

Once you’ve been inspired and chosen your design, follow these steps for successful label printing:

Step 1: Test print and view
To avoid wasting label paper, do a test printout on regular paper. Hold the test print up to your label paper (near a light source), and make sure they align properly.

Step 2: Make adjustments
You may need to adjust the font size or margins and reprint until the test printout is aligned with your sheet of labels.

Step 3: Load label paper
Load your label paper into the printer. See your printer’s manual for loading instructions, including instructions on loading your paper in the proper direction so that you print labels on the correct side of the sheet. (If you don’t have your printer manual, you may be able to download a manual from HP Support.)

Step 4: Print and affix
Print labels and affix them to envelopes, packages, jars, or gifts.
