Will inkpad ink dry on this tape for registered mail sealing? Registered mail requires stamping of the postal seal to secure from tampering.

Yes. The tape is kraft paper treated to resist water. Water based ink needs time to dry or it will smear. Solvent based inkpad ink will dry immediately. You can buy this same tape at any U-Haul rental center-- about $3.00 for a small roll.

We purchased this tape for use with registered shipping and we have not noticed any real issues. We were concerned due to the tape having a bit of a glossy finish but it does take the ink for the stamping.

I believe it will. I wrote on mine with a marker and it didn't smear. That's all I call tell you...hope that helps.Greg

I don't know about dry ink pads, but I use a gel pen to write on it and it doesn't smear. it is a great tape. tears easily, holds well. tough tape. almost as tough as duct tape.

I don't think a standard ink pad would dry, but haven't tested this. The tape has a slightly waxy feel to it. It does accept Sharpie markers so a similar type ink pad may work.

Just as an FYI, I have used this previously to seal registered packages. Today (7-14-2015) the USPS (Tacoma) would not accept my package stating I need to use a "reinforced gummed paper tape" that required wetting and cutting (it doesn't tear). Don't know if they have changed regulations but no matter my protestations that I had used it many times before, I had to re-seal my package.

Any good double sided tape will work. My wife sells Stampin' Up! and their craft double sided tape works nicely. Avoid a cheap adhesive.

Rubber cement is perfect for pasting labels. It will hold a seal underwater. (There were two questions)

Yes, I guess it is. I just found that out by reading another answer. The good thing about this stamp is that the address prints evenly. Every stamp I've had in the past had some fading part of the address. This stamp inks the entire address evenly.

I worked for a company that used this bag type. The stamp smeared. If you are a small operation, it's okay. You would have to make sure it had time to dry. If you handle it right away, it would smear. I would recommend not using a stamp on this type of envelope.

Its a thermo-printer so there is no ink or pressing of letters. Thermo-printing means its not smearable either. There are different types if labels you can get though the most common is a plastic like tape with a good adhesive. Once stuck to something it won't coil.

I use this ink pad to stamp the bottom of wooden boxes I turn on the lathe. I use rubber stamp pads and after stamping stained wood I can apply polyurethane within an hour. I also stamp bare wood and then buff it down with a 3 pad buffing and wax system. The ink is permanent and unless I fall asleep at the buffer it will still show clearly. I'm not sure if this answer helps you but if your tiles are made of wood this ink pad will work. Not sure if it will stick on porcelain or ceramic. The ink is already in the pad and should last at least a year before you would need to apply more. I can say this is very good indelible ink.

We use it as a buffing material for leather work, I would only guess it is not tight enough to stamp - but have never even tried it. Sorry we cannot give you a definite answer on stamping.

The ink is self contained inside the body of the "self inking" stamp's body. It passes the lettering of the stamp by the ink on the way tot the paper when you press down. What you see in the picture is what you get, and it should stay inked for a while. No extra pads or ink came with mine.

It is NOT a glossy surface. A carefully applied stamp should work just fine.

I assume you are referring to the little round seal on the front and not the packaging. In that case, NO, do not break the seal. This is a sure way to get leaks in your printer. The printer port that accepts the ink cartridge is designed to pierce the seal as it is being installed. This is why installing in one fluid push is important. Many people who report leaks are causing the leaks themselves by partially inserting or inserting and pulling back out. Once the seal is punctured, leave the thing in.

The ink will not dry up. It is manufactured so that it will not evaporate. A small amount of ink is used up each time you stamp an impression. When the ink gets low or is empty you can re-ink the little pad inside or you can purchase a new pad full of ink.

They require tape to seal. I like these for LPs - but don't try to mail anything breakable in them without lots and lots of padding.

Yes, I use it to stamp the back of cks and my envelopes, however I have to be sure the surface is level and push down evenly, otherwise the complete address doesn't always print.

It requires stamps labels that are approved by the USPS. I've always bought mine directly from Dymo.

Thanks for your inquiry. The stamp will not likely work, the downward force of the stamp will be too dispersed. The pen however will work great. If you notice you are having trouble similar to some of the reviews below where the copy is only working on the first two sheets, your entire ream may be upside down. If you look on the front of the packaging there is a little black arrow marked "printing side up." This paper only works one direction, so if the pen ink is only working on 2 of the sheets instead of the three, look for the arrow, and make sure you are writing on the printing side.

I tried it over tape and the print is too faint and smears. The ink needs to be absorbed by a porous surface such as paper, where it works quite well.
