How do I mail merge?

Traditionally, place cards show where guests are to be seated by displaying names at a particular seat.  However, it is becoming increasingly more popular to print table numbers on place cards in order to direct guests to the table they are assigned to be seated at parties, weddings, banquets, or other special occasions.  Often, place cards are designed to add to the table d®cor.  Sometimes, they match the menu cards and table cards.

My inventory is outdoors in harsh weather conditions, but I want to use barcodes to track inventory. What should I do?

The new 6-UP Blank Printable Weather-Resistant / Tear-Resistant Tags?

• made from a special weather-resistant and tear-resistant paper for staying power and to withstand rough conditions
• six pre-perforated tags per 8.5 ” x 11″ sheet
• each tag is rectangular shape
• each tag measures 2.83″ x 5.5″
• pre-drilled 0.25″ hole at the top of each tag

The new tags can be printed using laser or inkjet printers or copiers. (The tags can be printed using inkjet printers, but inkjet ink is NOT weather-resistant. Ink toner printed with laser printers IS weather-resistant. Burris recommends using laser printing for outdoor and other moisture-exposure applications.)

The new tags can be used for several different applications such as retail tags, warehouse tags, price tags, inventory tags, warning tags, discount tags, bag tags, inspection tags, auction tags, jewelry tags, shipping tags, key tags, product tags, barcode tags, hazard tags, refrigeration tags, plant tags, chemical tags, nursery tags and ornament tags.

Burris Blank Printable Tags? are tags that can be printed by a user using one’s own PC and printer. The user can create his/her own tag content and layout using existing software such as Microsoft WORD or Publisher ®, and print immediately using his/her own existing printer. No additional hardware or software is required.
The tags come 6-up or 8-up on blank, printable tag paper that is 8.5″ x 11? to fit in all printers, are pre-perforated for easy detachment into individual tags, and have a small hole pre-punched for affixing to products, bags, vehicles, keys or other items. The user can print as many or as few as need, with “No wait. No waste.”(SM) Blank, printable tags provide the additional advantage that they can be used for several different tag applications within an organization. Burris provides free templates for use with Microsoft WORD and Publisher.

Blank postcards are an effective, easy and inexpensive way to send graduation invitations, birthday party invitations, and baby shower invitations.

By printing your own postcards, you can quickly communicate time-sensitive needs, while saving time and cost. Blank postcards save labor, time, and money because there’s no folding, stuffing, or sealing. No special equipment is required. All that is necessary is a personal computer and inkjet or laser printer or copier.

Postcards (4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″) can be mailed at $0.28 apiece, saving up to 35%* on postage expenses. The current postcard rate is $0.28.  Your card must be between 3.5″ to 4.25″ high and 5″ to 6″long and be made from paper that has a 7pt thickness or greater. All of the Burris Four-of-a-Kind Postcards™ meet this requirement.  You can have printing on both sides as long as there is still room for the address and postal bar code information.  Printing postcards in-house eliminates buying, storing, and printing envelopes.

Question: My company would like to start printing our packing list on the computer but I’m not sure which of your products would best fit our needs. We are using Microsoft Word 2002 and a laser printer.  We will need to be able to hand the customer a copy after they sign. What do you advise?

Any shipping label sheet would work. It’s easy to get started with a  shipping label sheet template for Microsoft Word. A popular label sheet form features a 2 1/2″ x 4″ label (in top right corner or bottom left corner). It fits the need for an address label perfectly, and you can perform a mail merge to print out several orders at once.

If you are using a printer with 2 trays or feeds to speed up order fulfillment, you can print 2 copies of the packing list:

a) one copy printed on a shipping label sheet

b) another copy printed on a sheet of plain paper

If your customer doesn’t need a signed copy, then you can either print out a second copy of the packing slip or simply make a copy for the customer. This last method would work best if the customer needs to have a copy with his signature.
