Postage Address Labels

If you send a bit of postage a Dymo printer is ideal as you can quickly print one address label or multiple. My hand writing is shocking also 🙂 It is a thermal printer so it uses no ink and the printer only costs about $150.  If you head over to http://ausxmods.com.au/dymo-compatible-labels you can get the compatible labels at a great price compared to the original label price.  These labels even work on the new Dymo printers. Chris at AUSXMODS has great service also and you won’t be disappointed.
