Have you been using the Zebra for a significant time without frequent jams or labels peeling inside the mechanism? | I have never had either one of the ones I use jam at all.
Home 1000 + labels in a year ---No Problems
Work 4000 + labels in a year ---No Problem
These things are bullet proof as far as I can tell. Quote:

Me, I'd have to look up the label stock number and a lot of searching.
Thx in advance | If you have or know someone who has a true business UPS WorldShip account you can get the labels for free through UPS.
4X6 labels with out receipts from UPS through WorldShip - Cost $0.00
Other wise: Endicia Store - Zebra 4x6 Thermal Labels (12 rolls) $195.95 Zebra Z-Ultimate 4000T 4" x 6" Thermal Perforated Acrylic Polyester Labels and other Labels at CDW.com394.99
You can also do a search on eBay or Amazon for Zebra Labels.
Beware of crap dead printers that have been running at Zappos non stop for 8 years being sold as "used"... LOL I will not provide links to these sites.

They might be expensive at the start up but if you stop & think about it....
They use NO INK..... How much have you spent on print cartridges for the regular desk top printer?
I also gave up the basic desk top printer.
I bought a HP LaserJet P3005dn for my home.
Uses toner and not ink, holds a full ream of paper (500) sheets.
I got really tired of running out of black ink at 3am... LOL
The Zebra is worth it in the long run and MUCH easier to deal with than regular printers.
