These are the worst labels I have every used. They do not feed smoothly through my printer. Test print on plain paper looks great but labels are always cut off and unusable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are very sorry to hear you had trouble printing. One recommendation we have if the label sheets are not feeding through is to select a thicker paper type option such as Label or Heavyweight and a best quality setting. This can help the printer with feeding the sheet through. If this issue continues, please reach out to our Care Team at avery.com/contact and we would be happy to make this right for you.
Really disappointed. The labels on the left have streak marks down them, so they are unusable. Now I have a whole package of labels, but can only use the right side. For sure not worth the money.

We're sorry to hear that, if you get in touch with our consumer care center they should be able to replace these labels for you.

I'm printing with an Epson Stylus Pro 3800. Nothing I do gives me black blacks rich colors with these labels. I can find no info whatsoever on what ICC profiles to use, so am left with the "trial and error" method which is a total WASTE OF MY TIME. Would it be so hard to include this info on the packaging???
Cons: Dull Colors

We apologize but we do not support device ICC profiles with our software. If you are trying to make the black sections of your print darker then we would recommend checking your printer options to make sure it is being set to print at the highest quality or possibly check if there is an option to increase the saturation. Epson may also be able to provide further suggestions to make the print darker and richer. If you have any other questions or concerns you can also contact our consumer care team for more assistance. You can reach us by phone or chat by using the "Help" section above. Apologies again for any inconvenience!
I wanted to create a label that was large enough to include a logo along with 'To' and 'From' addresses which is to say what attracted me initially to Avery's 8168 label was its size and format. It turns out that I like this particular label for a number of reasons, one of which wasn't immediately obvious and that's TrueBlock. Shipping boxes aren't cheap. If I'm wanting to make a particular impression I might purchase a brand new shipping box but for the every day shuffle of stuff, recycling boxes not only makes sense, it saves a lot of dollars and cents along the way. That's the beauty of TrueBlock. Users of Avery products are well acquainted with its 'true blue' image and packaging but this particular product and others in the TrueBlock range could well do with a splash of green. TrueBlock products belong in a green wrapper! See accompanying image which is this artist's conception of a package that better promotes a more planet friendly product. Most actions, like going 'green' begin as a thought or an idea, so why not plant the seed of that idea with every opportunity we have? Unlike mass produced labels where you have to buy a prescribed minimum number to get your 'best' price, Avery makes it possible to print 1 label at a time. With a template that accurately represents the layout of the blank label sheet you can run the same label sheet through your printer 4 different times creating 4 completely different labels.
I use these Avery labels in the office for mailing and other miscellaneous labeling. The great thing is I use them at home too, for labeling storage boxes, gifts, etc. Year after year, Avery delivers high quality, easy-to-use, reliable products. Plus, I have never had a printing error using these labels and the accompanying template! You can't go wrong with these labels!
