A little Rant...:thumbdown:
Since my label printer went out and I have not spent the $250 to have it fixed I have been having to design and use sheet round labels. Yuck...I recently purchased 25 sheets of 2.52" labels from sheet-labels.com. After spending 3 days of tweaking settings and wasting 3 sheets of labels I am a little frustrated to say the least. I used their template pdf file, used their setting for making them in Avery Design Pro, designed some in my normal program, MS Publisher and none would print correctly. Some days I am a little slow...today I finally decided to measure the miserable labels and found them to be 1/16" smaller than the 2.5" they are supposed to be. Guess what it made the difference between printing correctly and not. I am very dis-enchanted with sheet-labels.com at the moment and sent them an email letting them know. Next year first on the agenda is getting the Primera fixed. I only use it for round labels and it does work well for rounds. Okay Rant done :-D
 
Do you have a sign shop near you? I used to work at a franchise place and most shops have printer/plotters that could do your labels. Too expensive to do for regular product but might save you some heartache when you need to get things out and done.
 
I use online-labels.com and love them. Fast cheap shipping, great multi format downloadable templates that always come right.
