This is the tape to get if you are labeling paper or cardboard items, like manila file folders, shoeboxes, or suchlike.

It does NOT stick well to plastic or glass, but will start to lift & curl after a few days (depending on humidity, I suppose.) Don't use it if you are labelling VHS cassettes or those little glass spice jars -- you need the plastic tape for those projects.

I keep both kinds of labelling tape in the house, because it's so easy to pop the cartridge in & out -- there's no wasted tape. Get some of each!

This white paper label makes the best labels I've ever seen, Quick and easy.

I used to use my labelmaker everyday of my life. It was integral to getting my work life and my home life organized. I bought tape for it all the time and used it up, then got some more and went on using. Then systems changed at work and when they did, I changed some of my organizational syles at home. The Labelmaker was no longer an extension of my right arm. In fact, it fell into disuse. I had organized most everthing, and it stayed that way.
The other day, though, I needed to use the labelmaker to put a label on a few itinerant folders and I found it empty. So, I dug around in my desk drawer and came up with this labeling which is white paper with black printing. I wasn't in need of being picky about the color I was using so I stuck this in the labelmaker and proceeded about my business. I got the labels made in no time at all and filed them away.
Then, I had a thought out of the blue. That Labeling tape was over two years old. It has been sitting in my desk for a long time. But when, I went to use it, it seemed as fresh as the day I bought it and it did my job with no problems. I decided that deserved some notation, so I decided to write this review.
Here is what I would like to impart: "I bought this tape two years and some months ago. Today, I put it in my labelmaker and it produced first rate labels. It is not cracked or dried out, but worked wonderfully. I think that makes it a good product and would like to take this opportunity to say so!"
There, how was that? I hope it was short and sweet. I like this. It held up over time. If you need something that hold up over time, use this. Thank you.

Can't for the life of me see how you are meant to peel this thing so it is stickable .... a real disappointment, instructions say easy unpeel, that's a load of baloney.
