Hey, i have some of my nes games that the label has some damage and one that is without label, for now i have made the Gyruss label (that's the one missing) and i want to know:

The type of paper that is use for cartridges labels?
Does it came pre cut for each cartridge (nes, Snes, N64)?
Where can i buy it on internet?
Best printer to use, inkject, laser, other?

Thanks

The type of paper that is use for cartridges labels? Semigloss sticker paper I think gives best results
Does it came pre cut for each cartridge (nes, Snes, N64)?Not that I know
Where can i buy it on internet?
Best printer to use, inject, laser, other?Inkjet with colors that don't smudge or add clear coat after printing

Thanks

I thought that laser printers were much better for printing covers and labels  :P

I use a Pixma Pro 100 and photo paper (Pro Lust or HP high gloss) to print my custom covers and it is fantastic.

With the right paper it is literally photo studio quality prints.

Thanks, i'm watching a Canon PIXMA MX860 All-In-One Inkjet Printer, i think this will be a good printer. In work i had a canon a little bit older model but similar to this Canon printer and it was excellent.

What you all think, is it a good buy and a good printer to print covers?
