Admittedly, today is not "Ask the Curator" day but, I have a question for the Curators of the collection: what kind of paper do you use to laser print labels in yours collections for dry specimens and what kind for labels to wet specimens in alcohol. #Curator #Insect #Collections

This is the paper I use for labels. In Poland, one package (250x A4) costs about 10 euros. (available grammages 120, 160, 200, 250, 280, 300g/m2)

@EntomoLabels Good questions. We here at @UFPR are switching to thermal printers. Dry collections with papers from 120 to 180 g. For ethanol specimens I am still using inkjet printers on photo papers or special papers like filicoat. Sometimes it works other times it doesn't...
