Is the labeler really necessary? DA basically makes it a "no option" issue, but I just wondered if you really think it helps that much?
No, the labeler is something I never needed and probably never will. I either use handwriting with a pen or computer with printer.pbs said:Is the labeler really necessary?

I can fit about 100 Pendaflex / Manila files in each 26.5" drawer. I print labels from my computer A-100 to A-199. When I have something to file, -I always have PowerMarks open - and I select the next available number and quickly fill in the Name of the File and any search words to help me locate it.
Retrieving a file is simple: Type in any word that comes to mind, and the files with that word instantly comes on the screen.

Hmmm. My Brother labeler came with a tool to remove the backing. It's a plastic stick about the size of a stylus with a split in the middle. You slide the label through the stick and twist the stick and the label comes right off (it takes a few tries to get the hang of it). If your labeler didn't come with one, maybe you can get buy one?
