    Hi

    I have some little stickers to do for a client, that have previously been outsourced.
    They need to be written on in biro, they are then stuck on a machine to show the service date etc etc
    Not subject to heat or chemicals when in place.
    Our printer is a 540V

    Anyone recommend a good material suitable for this application.
    Metamark MD-P any good for this?

    Thanks

    Hi
    have done the same for excavators etc used an old thermal label printer (precut labels) if not most matt vinyls will work better than gloss vinyls but always use to give a permanent felt pen with the order, but biro will normally write on it

    We use DigiSOL extra thick 150micron for our labels – can write on them okay, and being that bit thicker much easier for customers to apply themselves. Try Glenn at Allprint.
