How to find the right Continuous-Form Labels AI guide
Written by an AI model from its trained knowledge.
What the AI looks for in Continuous-Form Labels
- Feed type
- Pin-feed (tractor-fed) continuous labels are for dot-matrix or impact printers with a tractor. They cannot feed through laser or inkjet printers.
- Across count
- Match 1-across, 2-across or more to your software's layout. A wrong across count misaligns every label.
- Label size and pitch
- Match the label height and the vertical spacing (pitch) your print job expects. A pitch mismatch drifts out of alignment over a long run.
- Multipart or carbonless
- Only buy multipart labels if your impact printer has the strike force for multiple plies. Lower plies print faintly on weak printers.
Brands that matter
- Avery: Has made dot-matrix pin-feed labels.
What to avoid
