[comp.sys.mac.hardware] DeskWriter Labels

The Avery labels (Part 5260) work very well with the DeskWriter. I have 
printed thousands of labels without a single jam or other problem.

My concern is this: if I print mailing labels on my deskwriter, will there
be a problem with the ink running or smearing so badly they can't be read
and therefore can be delivered? Has anybody had any experience with this?

No problems using the newer ink cartridges HP introduced late last
year.  The ink is pretty water resistant.
