The stock paper thermal labels for the Dymo LabelWriter 400 do fade very
quickly, sometimes in a matter of months in my experience. We cover
them with a clear UV label protector which seems to alleviate this issue
-- however, take this with a grain of salt, because my particular
library is unlikely to keep most things in the collection for the very
long term. Most things are replaced or withdrawn within 10 years.

I think 5 years is probably long term where most items are concerned.
Reports I heard were that the labels faded too much within a year.

We started using the Dymos about five years ago and the labels we
printed then still look nice and dark. Really long term I don't know.

How do the labels hold up printed on the Dymo printers? I have heard
reports that they fade faster than others.

+1 on the Dymo Label Writer 450s. We have both the Duo and the
Turbo, love both of them.

We use Dymo Labelwriter 450s. They're inexpensive, easy to setup, work
well, and are compatible with multiple OSs.
Cheers!

Our spine label printer has officially retired. We need to replace
it as soon as possible. I’ve seen the survey that was taken on
printers before the last upgrade; however the last upgrade did not
work well with our microline. What I need to know is which
printers have worked well since the upgrade. Any and all
information on the printers you are using and how they work with
Evergreen at this point would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
