We strongly recommend purchasing weatherproof labels. These are best for cellar conditions where the label may get wet, dirty, damaged, or all of the above.
This article covers label choices for:
- Sheet labels (for a standard office printer)
- Ribbon labels for label printer (for Dymo and/or Zebra printers)
Sheet labels:
You do not need a special printer besides your standard office printer. Laser printers are best for weatherproof labels, however we do have a recommendation for inkjet weatherproof labels below.
