The BPI CodeTapers printer require two items for printing on gummed tape:   Printing type and Ink.  Depending upon how your message is to be printed, you have several options.  

For three inch tape users, your printable message area is approximately 2" wide.  For 2 1/2" wide tape users the width is 1 3/4", 2" tape users 1 1/4", 1 1/2" tape users have 7/8".  Length varies by mfg.

For printing type your options include: 

1. A logomat - Best for companies wanting to print their logo, or the same information over and over. 
2. Word mats - Best for companies wanting to print the same worded message. 
3. Rib type letter and number sets - Best when the message changes every day/shift/etc.   Assortments are sold by the kit and include all letters and numbers with the special characters of .,-&$'/ and ¢. 
4. Rib type date sets - Best for when dating is required.  Two types of sets.   Standard with each month and assortment of numbers to make the day, and year (1998-2004), or One year date sets that contain 366 pieces. 

For Ink, we offer Black, Blue, Green, and Red colors.  The ink is available in 6-4oz cases, pints, quarts, and gallons.   We highly recommend the 4 oz bottles for ease of use.
