AVERYPrintable Shipping Labels with Sure Feed, 2" x 4", Matte Clear, 500 Blank Mailing Labels (5663)

I like how my laser printer prints on these labels - they look great. However, when I put them on my smooth, straight-sided glass jars, there are a lot of little bubbles under the label that look pretty terrible. I ultimately opted not to use them for my packaging. I think they'd work fine on envelopes or in other places where little bubbles won't matter visually, but I haven't tried.

These labels are perfect for printing on a laser printer (no smudging at all) and for sticking on envelopes. They're a good size for regular size envelopes or Thank You cards, and are very easy to print on. Microsoft Word has a template already built-in for addressing, and they're easy to peel and stick.Although they are clear labels, they are not invisible, so you can tell there is a label there, and sometimes behind the label looks a touch darker than the plain envelope.I was very impressed how nice it came out, even when printing in black ink on a laser printer that feeds through the machine in a loop - they didn't melt or mush in the printer at all. I'll likely be using these to address my wedding thank you cards as well as Christmas cards until I run out of them. I debated using them for the wedding invitations themselves, but because of the slight discoloration, I think I'm going to print directly on the envelopes for those instead. They're perfect for less-formal addressing, though, and very convenient.

I ran these on my Xerox 550 Laser printer and one of them came off and stuck to the finisher and we couldn't find the problem so had to have tech come in.....big problem....lots of cost to get it fixed. Looked good, but will not use them again...sorry!!!

I do love these labels and they serve my purpose well (labeling ingredients in body products). Be aware that oils will remove any printing from the label. The labels are sold as clear, but they are actually opaque. The have a matt like finish, so whatever is under them will be somewhat blurry and obscured. This probably would not be detrimental to most peoples' applications, but I would have liked to have known that the shape of the label would be very obvious due to the opacity of the sticker.

I saw the negative review about them smudging when printed with an inkjet. I totally understand that could be frustrating. HOWEVER, I love these labels. I am indie designer who actually silkscreens these by hand with my own designs, which I put on my products. Acrylic silkscreen ink grips the surface nicely and does not scratch off. I make my own messages for products and airmail stickers for my international orders...They also work great with a laser printers, but I prefer using bright silkscreen inks, including shimmer colors like gold.While the new 'easy peel' function does make it easier to peel them off, if you work in an environment with a lot of dust, I only recommend removing that easy peel strip the moment before applying them to your objects...I have a lot of daily dust/lint from my apparel products, despite my top air filter in the room and my daily cleaning, and if I peel the strip and leave the sheets out, the dust/lint fibers sticks to the edge of the labels and makes them look dirty once applied to any white object...not classy...I try to keep them in their box to keep them clean.The main negative is the price. In the big online auction marketplace (you know which), the price is sometimes as low as $17 + shipping, but in stores they're $50. That's just too much for what I consider to be stickers...UPDATE AS OF 2/2012: I've stopped using these labels...I now buy and laser print stickers that look more professional....

As beautifully as these first turn out, the second they’re touched the ink smudges. Even days after being printed. So everyone received smudged up invitations in the mail because obviously the mail carriers and such move it around and touch it.

These labels did the trick! Printed nicely from printer, great size and came on time. My only complaint is that the labels are pretty flimsy.

Love the clear label for my Christmas cards

fast shipping, exactly as described.
