Q: QuestionBrother says the machine will not print "labels". Does that mean it cannot not print properly spaced mailing labels using Avery sheets of mailing labels?

Asked 3 years ago by Boyce.

• A:Answer I have printed sheet labels without issue. Perhaps this means it won't print single labels, for which you would need a dedicated label printer.
