3. Load Labels: Load the 8.5 x 11 inch label sheets into your printer's paper tray according to your printer's instructions for specialty media.

Operating Instructions (Application)

Once printed, apply the name badges as follows:

1. Peel Label: Carefully peel each individual name badge label from the backing sheet.
2. Apply to Clothing: Position the adhesive side of the label onto the desired area of clothing. Press firmly to ensure proper adhesion. The removable adhesive is safe for most fabrics.
3. Removal: To remove, gently peel the label off the fabric. The adhesive is designed to be removable without leaving residue on most fabrics.

Important Note: While the adhesive is safe for most fabrics, it is not recommended for use on delicate fabrics such as silk, leather, suede, velvet, or vinyl, as it may cause damage or leave residue.
