Avery Half-Sheet Printable Shipping Labels, 5.5" x 8.5" Customizable Stickers, White, 200 Blank Mailing Labels, Great for Mailing, Shipping, Organizing, and More (5126)

I worked as a quality manager in paper manufacturing and this product meets my standards. The paper has high opacity so it hides everything underneath it. The release liner (the label backing that peels away) has good tensile strength which means it does not pull apart. The adhesive is applied well and is high quality. The paper has the correct moisture content and therefore does not curl when heated during the laser printing process. The papers surface has been properly coated so that ink does not smudge. I do a moderate amount of eBay and amazon shipping. I printed paper labels and then used 3 feet of tape putting the labels on the packages. Those days are over. For about 20 cents per label you can easily print these labels and then it is "peel and stick". I shopped other cheaper labels but the 2 - 3 cents savings does not seem worth curly and poorly sticking labels. I fed these via my Brother 7860DW laser's manual feed slot. This slot sends the paper through its normal path which means they fed and handled like regular paper with no jams or delamination. I was also able to use the duplexing feature to print the receipt on the backside of the label. Even though the backside is release liner and not paper it accepted the laser toner just fine. This is a great cost savings on label stock and paper. June 11 2013: Still working great, no issues with peeling loose, no smudges, no jams. August 17 2013: Tip for USPS; Get the instructions or receipt not to print by adjusting the margins so that the instructions are forced onto a second page and then set the page range for just the first page. I had issue of the label not printing entirely on one label (half the page) and this fixes it in all circumstances. Tip: These labels are two up on one sheet and the sheet is perforated in the middle. So if you tear the sheet in two you can feed each label separately and avoid the problem of printing the instructions.

The Avery Half Sheet Printable Shipping Labels are a game-changer for anyone needing a reliable labeling solution. The quality of the labels is outstanding; they are thick and sturdy, which prevents tearing during the printing process. The adhesive is strong, ensuring that they stick securely to various surfaces, from cardboard boxes to envelopes. Printing on these labels is a breeze. They feed smoothly through my printer, and the templates available on Avery’s website make designing labels quick and easy. The ink dries rapidly, preventing smudging, which is a huge plus for professional presentations. I also appreciate the clear finish, which provides a professional look to my shipping packages. Overall, these labels offer excellent value and performance, making them ideal for home offices or small businesses. I highly recommend them for anyone needing high-quality shipping labels!

Avery basically sets the standard for home printing labels. They're good quality and have downloadable templates. For these, I can just print the label on my printer directly from USPS, UPS, Fedex, etc.

This served my purpose perfectly for sending in dozens of record requests for a dual citizenship claim. I did not need to buy a shipping label printer that I wouldn't need in the long term since I rarely mail stuff. I used Shippo and PirateShip to buy USPS labels - outbound and inbound. These labels print nicely with my Brother laser printer. The barcodes look intact in the rain, but scuffing from other mailpieces during sorting can diminish them a little but not enough to lose the ability to scan. They stick on strongly to flat rate envelopes. If I was starting an ecommerce business, I might consider buying a label printer. If all you have is a short term project, this will do the job.

Always work flawlessly. These are the thicker labels that come two to a full sheet. I've bought literally hundreds over the years, and they have always worked perfectly.

This was a purchased item, not a promo received for review. Like ALL Avery labels we've ever purchased, they feed without jamming, provide excellent print quality, adhere well and are consistently the same box after box. Yes, they may cost more than most other brands, but worth every penny.

I started selling a large comic book collection on eBay last month. Suddenly finding myself running a small shipping operation out of my spare bedroom, I needed high quality shipping labels that would work with the prepaid USPS options provided. These print perfectly every time on my HP laser printer, hold toner without fading, are thick, adhere strongly, and don't fall off. I'm going to stick with this brand and product number as long as I need labels.

Always work great and easily feeds through printer.
