Looking at a used J435W. I need it to print (color) product labels to apply to packages of baked goods. Anyone have experience w/labels?

This printer has worked fine on labels. Be aware though that it has no single sheet feed, so envelopes and other 'not 8.5" x 11" ' media are not really and option for the J435W. Although the printer has managed to survive, it is without a doubt the most cheaply constructed printer I have ever seen. Although the price may seem good, you definitely are only getting what you pay for.

go to office supply store & see what type of label you want. There's a number on the label container which you would use in whatever word program you are using. For Microsoft word go to mailings-labels-options enter in that label # in the appropriate section & hit new document. You can then format whatever text you want in the label.

Zebra and Dymo labels work fine; I use generic labels from u-line (specifically 2 1⁄4 x 1 1⁄4) I see that you had an additional question regarding printing of ISBN barcodes- the labels I just mentioned are a perfect size for printing ISBN barcodes in a size that makes them easily readable by barcode scanners.

I have an HP officejet 4500 and the labels didn't consistently feed into the printer. I eventually printed them using a regular office copying machine.

I'm sure this printer would work fine. I am not sure it would be the best choice. Only back and white. Also, not sure how creative you can be with the software. You may want to consider a color printer and Avery labels. Would be more flexable and give you the ability to be more creative.

Carl! I just did it... took out the color cartridge and it printed a B/W image....hey thank YOU it is good to know just for general purposes. BTW it is darn good little printer and if you can find it on sale as I did (40 bucks) also there is a vendor here that sells both cartridges for under 20 bucks including shipping...they wanted 48 bucks at Staples for the dang cartridges themselves for cryin' out loud........:>}

I have the 450 Model, but use the 4XL model for printing postage, as it uses the 4x6 labels. I also get my DYMO compatible labels from the House Of Labels, as they are very reasonably priced, and available here on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007NIVZZQ/ref=pdp_new_dp_review. Hope this helps.

I just got mine and followed instruction my fiance found online to install it. Here is the link: http://help.shipstation.com/customer/portal/articles/1092200-how-do-i-set-up-a-zebra-thermal-printer-on-my-mac- It depends on what you would use this thermal printer for and what applications you would use this with. For other purposes, I tested it, and it works. However, a few other applications that are not designed for Mac or not integrated with Mac, then, you would not be able to use this thermal printer properly without going through quite some hoops. For instance, if you are using this with Seller Central (which is a platform for 3p-sellers on Amazon) you would not be able to use this printer for printing item labels from Seller Central, or from Scan-and-ship.

I did, but the problem the label has it does not print where the label is. It prints off, I could not get them to print on the printer. What I did was to print a sheet then copy on to the labels on a copy machine

Yes, I am working with it and had no problems. I just installed it a few weeks ago, following the procedure in the manual, then the firmware was automatically updated and then connected to the computer with the drivers and apps previously installed from the cd. I printed from word, open office, gimp, illustrator, chrome, adobe reader, and all of them worked fine, I am using it with a usb cable but because I need to test large heavy graphics, but the speed when printing wireless was as fast as usb for letter size documents. The drivers are current. No compatibility problems or popups.

It does not recommend any particular printer for these labels. If you go to Avery.com you will find the template for the labels and be as creative as you wish. One note: first do a trial run with regular printer paper to assure line up. I placed an X on the trial sheet to make sure I didn't print wrong side. Good luck!

Hi, Anybody have trouble with the software aspect? I am running into trouble with the driver intalls, in particular the DLLs, and the worst is driver CNMBR333, even with the updated drivers. I already email tech suppport and they responded quickly but their solution didnt work. I wont hear again till tommorow but since so many others here are enthused about what is definitley a quality printer that even make standard paper printouts seem like photo paper, I though maybe someone with a bit more experience with install issues might be able to help.Thank You Regardless

It claims it's for a laser printer, but I printed my labels on an inkjet (HP Officejet Pro 8600). It worked just fine. The ink didn't smear during/after printing and looked great. I downloaded the free template from the website.

I wouldn't know. I sent the printer and the tape back because it only printed the occasional label. When it takes three to six tries to print one frigging label, it's not worth it....

Buy the software called bartender, then print yourself using the fba sku. Also, I would recommend using thermal transfer, not direct if you are using a 200dpi printer. Make sure the media you use is extra sticky. That means you will usually have to buy 50 to 100 rolls at a time, if not through me. I sell special labels myself that are vinyl or metallic based; super sticky! Most of the amazon ebay labels are cheap Chinese labels and will fall off at the warehouse, making your inventory "damaged/unfulfillable"

I have not personally done this on the Oki, but I would be surprised if it didn't. Label printing is a common capability these days (as opposed to the first days when the laser heat melted the labels off the page).

It has a built in driver that when plugged into the USB port it runs the program that prints labels. I have used it in XP and Windows 7 so far. Seems to work fine in both although it worked more seamlessly in Windows 7. I think I had to do something extra to get it to work in XP.
