Greetings.. Last year I started a thread where I was looking for high-quality, glossy, inkjet label sheets.
https://www.printerknowledge.com/th...ce-for-high-quality-inkjet-label-sheets.11604
Some time has gone by, and I haven't had any luck getting die-cut sheets from one company recommended in the above thread (Papalio). I've written them numerous times, including recently, but for whatever reason it seems they can't be bothered to help me out.
So, I think at this point what I need are 8 1/2" x 11" photo sheets with an adhesive backing. Preferably the same company could then die-cut the sheets for me, but I'll send them to another company to do that if need be.
I know the sheets I used for a long time had a clay-based coating. I've also read that papers with a microporous coating work well. I'm looking for paper-based glossy labels with a decent weight that leaves a smooth, glossy coat after printing. I've tried so many different papers over the past two years, most companies are using what appears to be the same poor stock I have now (blacks are not deep, colors are not saturated, edges of labels peel up with heavy ink saturation, gloss finish is poor).
I greatly appreciate advice on any papers that meet my requirements, and/or companies that can supply them and/or do die-cutting. Again, I'm looking for inkjet, high-gloss, photo-quality 8 1/2" x 11" photo sheets that I can get die-cut (preferably both from the same company). I go through roughly a thousand of these sheets a year, so I'd ideally being able to buy them in that quantity.
Thank you!
