Printers, Ink and Paper
 
We have a label printer and a typical desktop printer. Somewhat ironically, the label printer gets used more often to
produce adhesive labels for videos, DVD and duffle bags. Check that your label printer works with your computer's
operating system and that it uses a supported port (probably USB).  Software will need to be installed.
We have not had much need to do color printing so we tend to use black ink cartridges up more frequently. You may wish
copy functions (handy if you have to send paper notices home), scan functions (once in a while in lieu of taking a picture),
FAX functions (still popular with our 20th century government agencies) and support for printing envelopes and sizes of paper
other than 8.5" x 11". As with the labelprinter and really any device, check that the printer works with your computer's
operating system and that it uses a supported port (probably USB).  Software MAY need to be installed. We prefer 24 pound
white paper - we have not found any particular use for colored paper.
