How to Print Clear Labels
Clear labels are stylish and eye-catching for a number of uses. They look fantastic on home canned preserves and add a more professional air to business mailings. The cost of custom printing is high and often unjustified, especially if you only need a sheet or two. Fortunately, you can purchase sheets of clear labels at office supply stores and print your own on an ink-jet printer.
