5 Ways a LabelWriter Can Save You Time in the Office

If you’re anything like me, there are likely 100 different things waiting to get done when you get to the office. “Boredom” doesn’t exist. For this reason, it’s important to use as many time-saving tips as we can get our hands on. A great tool for this is the Dymo LabelWriter. Use these five ideas for using a label printer to save time in your office.

1. Stay organized with file folder labels. Keep your paperwork sorted and avoid the deluge of clutter on your desk by printing professional-looking file folder labels on-the-spot when you need them. Since the printer is conveniently located on your desk and already loaded with labels, you don’t have the hassle of searching for the annoying sheet labels and messing with special templates in a Word document. The label printer is simple to use and hassle-free…which inevitably means you’ll use it more often and keep your file folders more organized.

2. Maintain labeled binders. Keep important information in binders with clearly labeled spines. Even if you have a lot of binders that need to be labeled, you’re only out the minuscule cost of the label. Remember: this printer is direct thermal, which means no messy ink cartridges.

3. Print postage quickly and easily. Avoid going to the post office for stamps and print postage directly from your desk using internet postage stamps. If you regularly are sending packages, it’s a good idea to invest in a postage scale to save a trip to the post office. You can even schedule a courier pick up!

4. Access frequent fax numbers quickly. Are you frequently sending faxes? Place labels with your most frequently used fax numbers directly onto the fax machine for easy access.

5. Organize shelves and storage. In order to avoid your office becoming cluttered, use labels on shelves and storage bins. Not only will it better ensure each item is returned to its designated location after use, but it also will save time the next time you need to find something.
