DuraLabel 4000 User Guide

Interesting finds in the DuraLabel 4000 user guide

In the DuraLabel 4000 user guide, which is available publicly online, there are a few telling items. First, there are 6 pages dedicated to the proper loading of the printer! That's a lot of reading for something that is supposed to be "easy." Second, the user guide for the DuraLabel 4000 includes recommendations for using Microsoft Word for labeling.

Microsoft Word: a red flag for professional labeling

Most professional labeling systems ship with professional, custom labeling software. Microsoft Word was never intended for industrial labeling- it's a word processor! There is no reason to write a business memo and create a vinyl label in the same piece of software.

One reason the DuraLabel 4000 might recommend using Microsoft Word right in the user guide is to cut costs. In the end, since the cost of the DuraLabel 4000 and its supplies is not lower than the competitors industrial-class printers, only corners are being cut, and not costs.
