Is the print and label label water or weather proof?

I use the regular tapes on mason jars in my freezer and they hold up to the moisture and dampness. Sorry, I don't know about being totally waterproof.

They are waterproof if you use the correct tape. See http://smile.amazon.com/Epson-LabelWorks-Adhesive-Cartridge-LC-4WBW9/dp/B005S0KG7E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1425933675&sr=8-1&keywords=epson+strong+adhesive for an example.

They are waterproof if you use the correct tape. See Epson LabelWorks Strong Adhesive LC Tape Cartridge ~1/2-Inch Black on White (LC-4WBW9) for an example.

Yes it is possible, but its probably not going to be the quality of label that you want for a finished product. The labels are not shaped and are not water-proof. The thermal label is monochrome only and you probably want color for your product.

All I find on the label is that it's waterproof when dry. Perhaps on an outside with a little protection from the elements but not sure if just placed directly in the elements.

I have had no problem with stickiness in any weather. However, the material used on top (paper, vinyl, etc.) can be affected by the weather. For example, I would not want to cut a figure from paper and make it sticky on the back and then get the paper part wet. Protect your stickers just as you would protect anything made from the same material. Vinyl would probably fare better than paper.

Advertising says it is: "Weather, dust and impact resistant". Mine has been in heavy rains before without a problem. I wouldn't take it swimming. :)

I had a label on my travel conditioner bottle and had it in the shower while on vacation for 4 days and the label stood on. The bottle got wet many times.

It can if you do a bit of extra work. There are inks you can purchase for printers that are waterproof. To make it have a shiny/harder cover, you can purchase clear sheets of contact paper, peel their backs off, and stick them over the sheet of paper. If the printed item is small enough, you can even use clear packing tape as an alternative to the contact paper.

Hi, a little bit.. I normally use packaging tape over the label if I know I have to leave them on the porch for pick up on a rainy/humid day.

I have one the I put on our soap dispenser and it's still there from last year. This container gets wet frequently and it is still holding. I assume because plastic does not attract moisture than paper. Make sure you wipe the surface first before puting the label. You can also put a magic tape on top after sticking the label to avoid moisture if you want to finish the paper label first.

No, they are just like regular address labels. I have never tried to see if they are waterproof, but they are the same material as a normal address label.

Can't say it is however i don't know of any ink thats water resistant. Depends on where you use it and the application , you did'nt say

I have two of these. The tape is more vinyl like than paper. The labels hold up well. That being said I am not sure this would be the case outdoors. If it is weather protected I do not see the sun as being a huge issue although it would shorten the life. I have labels in direct sunlight all the time but in a climate controlled area with no issues.

It would make it water resistant- not waterproof. You might want to test it out on something unimportant first, to see if it runs. I also suggest that you spray lightly in several coats, and keep the nozzle of the can at least 12" away from the surface of the test print to prevent drips and runs from the spray pressure. You might also want to give the back of the print two or more coats to help prevent seepage in case it does get wet! That being said, there are photo paper out there that have a coating already on the paper that prevents water damage- last time i saw this photo paper was at Best Buy- you might want to check it out before using the spray. :)

I don't know exactly what you are asking, but for the initial use for which I bought the printer, I am pleased. I bought it so as to print labels to use on aluminum plant markers outside in my garden. They have held up well to sun, rain, and now snow and wind. By May I will know for sure whether they have weathered what a year can do to them. They were quick and did not smear and easy for making 2 or more copies of the same name I needed. When tax season is done, I may start labeling all the folders in my cabinet just so they are easier for me to read at a glance.

I'd say it's resistant but not water proof. I've taken it out in the pouring rain and everything inside has stayed dry, but I'd be afraid to drench it just in case.

I have not experienced any label problems. If you make sure you do not overfill the wash basin, and set the end rollers at the right distance, the label will not get wet as long as you withdraw the record right after the wash procedure and dry it. If you have concerns about the label washing off due to the type of ink used, I would test a small area with no text with a damp sponge. No ink should come off and it should not fade. If it fades or washes off I'm not sure I would wash it other than by hand. I have not run into any labels on 331/3 LPs that wash off or streak, same for 45s. I have not washed any 78s. I guess I have washed about 250 or more records with the Spin Clean and find it indispensable when buying used records and going back through my personal collection. I even wash records that don't show any signs of dust. The Spin Clean get down deep in the grooves.

Well I have had some labels in my garden for the last ten years and still look as good as new. They are outside year round in some of the harshest weather included extreme heat and sun to snow and hail. The trick is to buy the UV resistant tape which costs a little more but well worth the extra money.
