<p class="MsoNormal">They are on perforated sheets and print 4 slips per sheet. We have a Word document that is basically just four columns that lines up with the perforations. It works well – I just add the call numbers to each column until I have four ready
to print and then print an entire sheet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The downside is that you have to wait until you have four slips to print, or you print fewer than four and potentially waste a few. If I do that, I try to print two slips at a time, leaving two blank. Then I can re-use the two slips, using
the middle two columns of the Word template.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We print our 3 x 4 ½ inch bookplates by attaching them to a regular 8 ½ x 11 sheet of paper and then running them through the printer. We’ve pre-marked the sheet of paper with a pencil outline to show where the plate needs to be in order
for the printing to come out in the right place.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We attach the plate to the paper either using a piece of masking tape, which easily comes off after the paper goes through the printer, or by lightly moistening the gummed backing on the plate--we put a piece of scotch tape on the paper
in the spot where the gumming will stick as it goes through the printer; it easily comes off after printing (we found this still leaves enough gumming on the plate to attach it to the book), and the sheet with the scotch tape can be reused.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We are going to be changing to a new archival book slip. Our previous slips were created in-house at 2 7/8 inch wide and we were able to print them using standard HP printers. In testing the width of the new slips (before ordering) we
have been unable to print them because of the narrower width. The printer guides do not get narrow enough to hold the slips in place as the printer roller grabs them and they shift as they go through.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have experience printing either of these slips? What printer do you use to print them? Is there an adapter for a standard printer tray to keep them in place?<o:p></o:p></p>
