What I do is use sheets with multiple labels per sheets, but then only put
text on a template (in officewriter) for the labels I need. Then when I need
more, I erase that text, add text for the labels not yet printed, and run the
sheet though my printer again.
I do the same, except I create a new pdf with only the necessary cells printed. But it's a laser printer so it does gray the paper a bit. But great point on the inkjet. That may be the best option: an inexpensive b&w inkjet.
Thanks!
