Print the Right Type of Label
We offer four (4) ways to print custom labels: cut-to-size, roll, sheet, and kiss-cut. What’s the difference?
With cut-to-size labels, also known as individually cut labels, each piece is separated and trimmed according to its size and shape. Our process involves a laser cutting through the adhesive and backing material.
Choose cut-to-size labels if:
- You only need to print a small quantity
- You need to apply labels by hand
Roll labels are printed on adhesive paper using a dedicated printer that wraps it around a cardboard spool that fits most label dispensers.
Choose roll labels if:
- You have a label dispenser or need to apply quickly
- You want to print labels in bulk
Sheet labels are printed on a single piece of white sticker paper. Our sheets come in size 3.5” x 8”, 4” x 6”. 5.5” x 8.5”, and 8.5” x 11”. You can also choose a custom sized sheet. One of the best advantages of choosing label sheets is you can also print multiple designs on a single sheet.
Choose sheet labels if:
- You need something easy to stack and store
- You want to easily divide labels among your team members
Kiss-cuts are printed individually like cut-to-size labels, except they come with a border and backing sheet surrounding your design. When printed, these labels initially come in a square shape. But unlike cut-to-size labels, your label design will only be cut through the vinyl, not the backing.
Choose kiss-cut labels if:
- You need extra protection for intricate designs
- You want to print added branding on the border
How to Customize Your Labels
You can print custom labels in a variety of shapes. Our standard shapes include rectangle, square, circle, and oval. If you want something unique, we can also print arch, hexagon, heart, starburst, and even custom shapes.
Our selection of premium adhesives suits all types of label applications. For indoor applications, choose from white sticker paper, premium sticker paper, and Estate adhesive paper. They’re uncoated, writable, and you can add protective gloss and matte coating to enhance your designs.
If you need something more durable and waterproof, white vinyl and BOPP (biaxially-oriented polypropylene) materials will last a long time. They’re tearproof, refrigerator-safe, and ideal for outdoor applications.

Q&A
Both cut-to-size and kiss-cut labels can come in any shape and design you want. The difference is the way they are printed and trimmed. Cut-to-size labels are trimmed through the sticker and paper backing. For kiss-cut labels, we only cut through the sticker adhesive, leaving the paper backing intact. Kiss-cut stickers have a border around your design which makes them easier to peel off and apply.
This depends on the size and quantity of your sticker order. We use a 3” diameter core and for most roll sticker orders the total diameter ranges from 4” to 8” per roll. The quantity of stickers per roll decreases as the dimensions get bigger.
This depends on your chosen sheet size and label size. The smaller the label size, the more pieces you can print on a single sheet. As a reference, you can print 30 pieces of 2.685” x 1” labels on an 8.5” x 11” sheet. If you choose 5” x 4” sized labels, you can print a maximum of 4 labels per sheet.
Yes. Be sure to select Multiple Designs on the Sheet in the order calculator as you make your order.
