Algae Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 After switching out cables for the umpteenth time and not remembering where each terminated I finally got organized. Got this cool label maker through Newegg. It was on 24hr. sale for $30.00 shipped. The nice thing about it is that you can use an almost unlimited selection of PS fonts and even import a graphic because you control it via computer. It also (as you'll see) prints vertically. It has an automatic cut-off blade etc., etc. I feel so organized! It is not nerdy to like a label maker.

newfisher Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Looks familiar....Hmmm. Remember to use clear packing tape to secure the labels or the moisture from the sump area will loosen the glue backing on the supplied labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it is not nearly as fancy as yours, it is also a P-Touch brother labeller and it is full of awesome. Do not fret over your love for the label maker, good sir. It is a good thing. Embrace it and let your inner labeller go wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks you may have bigger issues than labels... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grassi Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I wish that was my setup! This is the tank of a guy in Thailand. I think the best private owned tank I have ever seen. It is somewhere on RC. My setup needs some labels. I should order some from Algae's label shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methinks you may have bigger issues than labels... I ran out of room on my dc8 and bought another. On things like skimmers, sump pumps, and some powerheads, I find it much easier just to use a rocker switched outlet strip instead of a controller. Much quicker. So easy to run out of outlets!
