Print Sheet
Labels
Printing labels is a fast and easy way
to create instant branding. However, not all labels are created the same way.
With most labels, you can print only one design per
order. If you’re running different promotions at a time, you need to print
separate designs fast—and you can do this with custom printed sheet labels.
Sheet label printing provides the benefits of both cut-to-size and roll label
formats. Like rolls, they’re easy to peel off and apply and you can order small
quantities like with cut-to-size labels.
At Al Print, you can print sheet labels labels and we can have them ready for
shipping in just a few business days. Upload your own ready-made design and our
prepress team can proof it for free to ensure it meets technical printing
guidelines.
Advantages of Sheet Label Printing
Sheet labels are versatile in terms of
design, size, and quantity. They are great for mailing labels, address
labels, shipping labels,
or return address labels.
In addition, full sheet labels have advantages over types of labels:
Multiple Designs
One of the things that make printable label sheets different from cut-to-size and roll labels is
the ability to have multiple designs per sheet. This makes branding more
memorable since customers see different but related designs from your business.
You can print various designs for your personal use or create a full sheet of
on-brand iconography to use as freebies and packaging inserts for your
business.
Stackable
Sheet labels are stackable, which means they are easy to store even if you
don’t have much real estate to work with. They store flat, making storage a
breeze. They’re also easier to carry along than roll labels. We also offer
shrink-wrapping, which bundles your labels in protective plastic to minimize
space and prolong their shelf life.
Economical
With custom sheet labels, you don’t need to print more than you need. Choose the
label size you want and print different designs without creating a separate
order for each new artwork.
NEW Custom Shapes
Customize sheet labels according to your brand or preference. With custom
shapes, there’s a style that’s made for everyone. Whether it’s a heart, a star
or a half-circle, custom shapes allow you to create designs that reflect your
personality.
Al Print easy to use product calculator lets you quickly choose the perfect
shape for your sheet labels. Just choose between Basic Shapes and Custom
Shapes.
Looking for a traditional shape? Choose the basic shapes and pick the one that
works best with your design. If you want to create a unique look or get more
personalization, choose custom shapes. This option lets you have the same
design or print multiple artworks on a single sheet.
How to Choose the Best Size for Your Sheet Labels
We have four (4) sheet sizes you
can choose from:
3.5” x 8”
4” x 6”
5.5” x 8.5”
8.5” x 11”
The number of labels per sheet depends on both the size of the sheet and label
you choose. The smaller the size, the more labels you can print.
For reference, here’s a quick comparison of the standard rectangle
label sizes and their corresponding quantities on an 8.5” x

These adhesive labels are easy to peel off and apply. Choose from (2) two
coating options to enhance your labels: uncoated and high gloss.
Uncoated is best for labels that you want to write on. With this
finish, the colors in your artwork may look muted. High gloss coating is
UV-resistant. It’s not writable because of its glossy finish. Both label
materials are not waterproof.

Design Tips for Sheet Labels
Before getting started, here are some
quick label printing and design tips to keep in mind:
Choose an
appropriate label size based on your purpose. Are you printing
address labels? Those are okay in small sizes to read up close. Will you apply
these labels on a product? Is your product displayed in store shelves or
online? Make sure to choose a size that customers can read from at least two feet
away.
Enhance designs
with the right coating. Gloss coating makes designs pop and adds vibrance
to colorful labels. Matte softens colors and adds a chalky yet elegant effect
that suits dark and bold hues.
Separate
information with fonts. Consider using 2 to 3 fonts to help readers easily
digest your label information. If it’s the headline or the title of the
product, choose a bold and eye-catching font to ensure that’s the first thing
customers will read. When combining contrasting fonts, one should be more prominent
than the other. This establishes hierarchy.
Not sure what label size and material to order? You can request a free sample kit and
we’ll deliver it to your address. This kit includes our popular print products,
a swatch kit for materials, and information about sizing and folding.
