Hello! I have been using the weatherproof laser labels for wine bottles...OL713LP My most popular label has a chalkboard look to it with white lettering. I have had a few comments from customers that they scratch easily.

I print on an HP Color Laser (HP LaserJet Pro 200).

Any suggestions on what I can do to prevent this, if anything? Should I coat them with something?

Any help would be appreciated!

Jackie

Hi Jackie!

I just did a review of the weatherproof labels in the 'Winemaking' section on this Forum. I couldn't get them to scratch or smudge at all.

The HP 200 Series printer driver has a label setting. Are you using this setting?

Jackie - RJ is correct. This issue normally is caused by the toner not properly fusing to the sheet. You can change your printer media type settings and it will normally resolve the issue.

Here is a video on our site that discusses this specific issue that you are experiencing.

I would try the labels or glossy setting and see how that performs. Let us know if we can help in any way.
