Classroom Applications
School Labeling > Classroom Labels & Stickers

A label printer is a helpful tool in the classroom. Not only can you make labels and signs, a school labeler should be able to make stickers with either permanent or temporary adhesive, magnetic-backed "stickers" in any shape and including text and graphics, and static cling stickers in any shape.

The Varitronics VisiMate is he only machine we know of that provides these capabilities.

When we say "make stickers" we are referring to a label printer that is also a vinyl cutter. Labels can be printed and then cut into custom shapes to create stickers. It can also be used to create cut vinyl lettering and graphics. With a variety of materials available, the label printer can then also be used to create magnetic-backed stickers, labels and signs as well as static cling stickers, labels and signs. This provide the advantage of "sticking" to various surfaces without marking those surfaces. Another option is to use repositional vinyl tapes. These are tapes that have an adhesive that allows them to be removed after they've been applied.

Having all of these capabilities in one machine will save money because only one set of supplies needs to be purchased. For example, with the Varitronics VisiMate the same supplies can be used to make a warning label for an outdoor structure and cut vinyl lettering for an office window. Another reason you'll see savings is that your staff will only need to know how to use one machine. There will be no need for double training to learn how to use two--or maybe three--different machines.
