[Dx4win] Label printer

[John Unger]

I guess that I might be interested in a label printer because it seems that 
I frequently am printing our less than ~30 labels and don't like to waste 
part of a sheet of 5160 labels. The sheet labels are pretty expensive, too.

Also, it looks like it would be very handy for addressing packages, etc.

Related question: I know some on the reflector use the Dyno 400 label 
printer, but does Dx4win support any printer or label maker that you can 
connect to your computer with its custom label design?

tnx es 73 - John, W4AU
