    Labeling

    Years ago, we might've used Letraset for labelling switches ... not ideal, though, because wear & tear would soon have reduced legibility ...

    'wonder what would be best, now - for various things, like the buttons on a four-button module, like power points for which we'll being having Idratek give a timed connection, and even for MFPs, which allow the buttons to be allocated to various functions, not just the defaults for which they are marked when delivered ...

    one possibility might be to use some of those self-adhesive metal plaques that key-cutting shops often do, and place them nearby ... might be expensive, though, if more than a few were needed ... another approach might be to print labels from the PC / Mac, and mount them under glass ...

    either way, with careful sizing & placing, something neat might be possible ...

    any thoughts, any other ideas ??

    a third option, looks quite promising :



    might be quite economical, if careful to fill the sheet before printing !

    seems OK for plastic & metal, as well as paper, glass, etc, 'though not wood ...

    anyone tried it ?
