Leonard company - they have a website) But you have to turn the wheel and press each letter out one at a time. When I already have the plant names and other info in a Word table, spreadsheet, or database file I certainly don't want to have to capture all those keystrokes again. That's why I mailmerge to clear address labels (about 5 minutes for a thousand!) and then peel and stick them on the zinc labels with legs. If they're not as permanent as the steel dymo tags (and they're not), they're a heck of a lot faster to do. Bill Lee
