Ink – has evolved throughout the centuries from the 1800's when Gutenberg invented an oil-based ink to work with his printed press through to the first consumer grade inkjet printers becoming available in 1988.

Computerised printing has led to the development of the types of ink available. From the daisy wheel printers of the late 1960s onwards. Inkjet printers use a system whereby minute particles of ink are sprayed onto paper. The solvent from the ink dye soaks into the paper so the colour remains. Modern inkjet ink is very complex and most are water based dye inks. The toner for laser printers was originally made from combining carbon powder, iron oxide and sugar. Later being replaced by a polymer mix.

Labels – There are basically two types of labels available for use in the office.

1. Avery labels which are a type of label used for ink based and toner based printers and are commonly used in smaller business offices and the home. The advantage of these labels is that they are readily available, cost effective and depending on the brand can be provide high quality graphics.
2. High demand consumers such as government agencies etc usually use thermal devices for their printing. These are specially made for labelling and for short term labelling direct thermal printing is cost efficient and faster. A disadvantage can be that their colour spectrum is quite narrow.

Paper – Paper is used on a day to day basis in almost everything we do. The Chinese perfected the art of paper centuries ago and until the boost of technology in the late 20th century paper was used in offices and home for many purposes.
