Question 1

Typography is similar to that of the machine came out in the 70s, with relief and retro look? Labels stick on paper and plastic?

Accepted Answer

Yes, The tech hasn't changed since than, I had one in the 70s.  Main thing is to use a gentle hand.  It takes very little effort to emboss and cut and this thing is made of flimsy plastic.  As to glue, labels stick well to any smooth clean surface, but any dust, oil or texture and they need help.  Paper? well I just write on that. When a label won't stick to something or falls off, I use a little yellow wood glue smeared on the back of the label and that seems to work excellent to put it back up, and yellow glue can be scrubbed off of metal and plastic easily.  White "Elmers" would probably work too, I just have the yellow around.  Smooth plastic it sticks well, textured, it needs help.  Same with metal.  Should stick well to glass. My mother used the one from the 70s to label spice bottles when I was a kid.  I haven't labeled anything on wood, but wouldn't even try without my handy bottle of tite bond.

Yes.  Three rolls.  One comes in the gizmo and there are two extras included.   There was a black one in it and I believe the extras are one red and one green...

Question 4

I'm interested in buying additional tape with this product.  Is 3/8" the standard size tape that it requires?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 3/8" is the correct tape size.  I checked the box to see if there was additional information, but no.   The box of 10 embossing tapes says each tape measures 3/8" x 9.8'.   Susie B
