round labels
By Carol
It wasn't easy finding these round labels, but fortunately Avery still makes them and Amazon.com sells them. They're perfect for spice jars, reward stickers, whatever. Some software programs (Printmaster) are designed to use these labels with the space between them/20 per page, so no other labels will work. Other programs use the labels that are closer together/24 per page. If you don't get the right labels you can waste a lot of time and ink and never get them lined up. The programs I have allow you to design only one label at a time, while the Printmaster program using these labels lets you design a whole page of different labels and save and print them in one step.

Useful and Practical - template issues
By Leila Sidawy
These round labels are perfect for so many situations: from personal to professional. They stick well and the diameter is perfect.

My one frustration (which caused me to waste many sheets and afford this product 3 stars instead of 5) is the template. It took way too many steps and workarounds to get the labels perfect:

Step #1) The package includes a sheet of paper with the outlines of the labels marked, but that's it! That doesn't help one layout the image in Word.
Step #2) The label template did not already exist within Microsoft Word, so I had to download it from the Avery website - this wasn't a problem although it was a little annoying that I had to make an account in order to download the template.
Step #3) Once downloaded, the template consisted of black borders drawn for each label - not gridlines - meaning if you don't want your image to have a thick black border, you have to delete the black circles one-by-one, and thus losing the template since gridlines weren't used.
Step #4) When in this situation, I normally just draft my own gridlines using the specs printed on the package, but this package did not list an label dimensions! I ended up making my own template by literally measuring the labels with a ruler, and typing the specs into Word. I assume most people wouldn't even know how to do this. Needless to say, I wasted a few good label sheets in the process when my images printed off-center.

As a marketer, I'm very comfortable and experienced with label making, but this was a headache even for me. The final product turned out fantastic, but the process was a pain.

Does the job
By Garabaldi
Labels either work in your printer, or they don't. These work and hold the ink just fine. I needed to order labels quickly and found these at the top of the list. However, there are other venders that make these labels for a fair price. Searching for "Avery compatible" will reveal the more competitive alternatives, although shipping cost may also be a consideration.
