From those home made jams to envelopes to pay your bills, everything needs a label. Might as well put your PC to work. I'm Fred Fishkin with Bootcamp, a report on computers and technology. If your handwriting is anything like mine, you're a lot better off letting your computer print out mailing labels and such. You can buy sheets of labels that will work in a standard inkjet printer, but that can be cumbersome if you just want one label at a time. A company called Dymo.... remember those old labelmakers that you'd use to print plastic labels by turning a wheel for each letter and then squeezing.....well today they have a line of LabelWriters that you can leave hooked up to the serial port of your Windows PC. Company chairman Andrew Newmark...

"The Dymo LabelWriter is a small label printer that connects to your PC. . It connects easily to your PC and it holds rolls of labels. The printer is designed to print those one at a time labels that you need. Whether it be a label for an address, for an envelope, a label for a file folder...whether you be labelling video cassettes or floppy disks, all the labelling chores you have in an office, the LabelWriter makes quick work of all of them."
