Club Repair Label Best Practices:
When printing labels for the first time or creating a new label template, always test a label or two before using it during shop hours. This way you can:
Test to ensure the labels have the proper information.
Verify the font is legible.
The labels are centered and not cut off.
When using laser or inkjet printers to print labels, put a seal on the labels to ensure that the ink is not washed away.
