What kinds of labels do I need?

The types of labels you need to print, their size, and what you need to print on them will effect your selection of a label printer.

What size? (width and length)	What size labels will you be printing? What is the minimum and maximum width? What is the maximum length you expect you'll need? (For example, 6 inches or 6 feet?)
What colors?	What color do your labels need to be? (Background color of the label vinyl.) What color does the printing on the label need to be? Do you need multiple color labels.
Based on the environment.	Where will the label be used? Will the environment effect the printing? The adhesive? The vinyl itself?
Temporary or Permanent?	Do you need your labels to last more than six months, or do you do a lot of temporary labeling. (For example, temporary labeling would be used for in-house tracking of supplies and materials, for inventory tracking, shipping information, etc.)
What needs to be printed?	You probably need to print text. What fonts do you need? What size text? How many lines of text on a label? Do you need to print boxes around text? Do you need to print lines? Do you need to print bar codes? Do you need to print graphics? Are you printing the same standard graphic over and over, or printing custom graphics?
