[Web4lib] Thermal Transfer Printers

[Lin Light]

We use Dymo our magazine labels and the occassional single label replacement.
YES they will fade. We are staring to look for a thermo-transfer printer too.
You will find that you are limited to the size of the label. Usually over 1x1 
inch size. But it is the way to go.
