Good label maker for cartos

[BanjoMan]

Need a label maker that has labels small enough for flavor-labeling cartos.

Thanks

I have a Brother P-Touch I got at Office Depot. I think the labels are a 1/2" tall. That's too big for my cartos so I trim the unused top and bottom off. It's a handy item to have around the house. If you have kids - hide it because they'll be making labels for everything in sight, LOL.

You can save some label material by batch printing them with periods between each label you want to print. I also round off each of the four corners of the labels I make. I figure that will help them stayed adhered better (I use the condom refill method). It sounds like extra work but it is very easy. They work great and I'm surprised they adhere so well with the "oily" contact daily with e-juice.

Dymo also manufactures labelmakers. I'd go with whatever brand your local office supply store carries.

Casio makes 3/8" and I believe 5/16" tape labelers. Fry's has them fairly cheap I believe.

I gave up on printing labels. Instead, I bought permanent markers (gold and blue). I don't write out the entire flavor; instead, I use abbreviations so I'll know what they are. Then I put a tiny piece of clear tape over my writing so it doesn't rub off.

By the way, I write near the bottom of the cartomizer. In the beginning, I was writing near the top, but had trouble getting the cone on when I use my CigEasy Elegant.

Lowes has a really cool one for about twenty bucks that prints very small, I labeled all of my fiancees cartos and my random juice mixes. The best part is that when they get liquid on them they do not smear. I believe it is Brother brand.

I have a Dymo LetraTag that I picked up at Walmart for $20 or $30. It uses 1/2" tape but that works for me just fine. I put the label near the connector end and I haven't had any issues with them coming off, yet.

I have a Dymo.

I have a Dymo and it prints xtra small, then I trim the labels. Thanks garyinco...never thought to put periods in between and print a bunch at one time! What a great idea!

I'm cheap, I use the extra labeling left over from my DVD/CD label pages with an exacto knife or razor blade and a fine tip marker. Works great for me.

I use a fine soldering tip, etch the caps then rub a drop of permanent dye over it to make it more visible - CAPS not on the carto itself - that would make holes in the carto walls.

I use a Brother P-Touch and print the labels vertically instead of the normal horizontally. Works great.

Mine is a PT-1500PC which connects to a PC via a USB cable. It can print just about anything you can see on the screen. Fonts, jpgs, Clipart, Barcodes, etc

Brother is the way to go. Incredible flexibility and the labels are permanent.

I like it and have used it for all kinds of things. I was surprized that I could soak a carto in vineger and the labels stayed on.

I got it for 99 cents on e-Bay New. Seems that there was a glitch in the Virtual USB drivers that caused people to think they were defective.

Here is an example of what I put on my DIY bottles.

It's a 3/4" label and they fit perfectly on 15ml or bigger bottles.
