Avery 5126 shipping labels poor quality
I purchased Avery 5126 shipping labels and am very disappointed in the quality compared to my old box of labels. The old box had labels that were rounded on the edges and easy to tear off. The labels were separate and easy to use. When I used one label and then put the sheet back in the printer to print another label, it worked fine. The new labels are sticky to the edge and difficult to get started. The labels are not separate and have a perforated edge between them that is not a clean edge. When i put the used sheet in the printer, it jams. I am not happy with this new version. Why has the quality decreased so much?

Hi Lisa, really sorry to hear about your experience with the 5126 labels. We do have some advice for print settings that may assist with the print quality. We do recommend selecting a thicker paper type such as Label or Heavyweight and a Best Quality setting. This can help with preventing jamming issues.
