A couple of problems: * They sometimes go through at about a 5 degree angle from true, which is noticeable * Occasionally you'll get a double feed. If it's really important that your labels be right the first time, I suggest manual feed, which works fine. I've been a beta tester for something called "Silicon Press", which was announced at the MW Expo and is allegedly shipping next week. I find it perfect for setting up mailing labels on the Laserwriter (with a Mac, of course). Joel West CACI, Inc.
