Address/label printer recommendations

libra10

I have some vouchers at Amazon, and have been thinking of buying an address label printer.
It would mainly be for used at home, not office or Ebay sales, and wouldn't be used a great deal.
The Dymo 450 seems to get good reviews, and there is also a wireless version.  Price isn't too much of an issue.
Can anyone offer advice regarding a simple, easy to use, compact printer?  I don't want to use my main printer as I would have to stick the labels on envelopes after printing.

These specialist printers really are for bulk users of the same label stock.  

For infrequent use I'd definitely recommend using your main printer and finding a reliable template approach for the label stock you have (which is easiest if it is on A4 sheets).   You can print one or two labels and use them, and then return to the same sheet later to use different label printing positions.    I use image-based templates for this purpose in MS Paint which I find easier to control, pixel-by-pixel.   Most word processor packages will make a good attempt, though.

If you are only printing labels for envelopes, you might also want to try printing directly on to the envelopes.   Again, having a reliable template helps.

The other option could be sticky labels you just print onto and peel, like the Avery series for example.

Publisher has a whole bunch of Avery templates built in for most label sizes, so you just design the label and it'll squirt it out 21 labels on one sheet of A4 or whatever you need/choose.  You don't have to buy Avery, Q-Connect does the same range, handy look-up table here for the common labels: https://www.aosonline.co.uk/avery-label-sizes for the Q-Connect part codes.  Significant savings available as you can pick these up in bulk relatively cheaply - Amazon have the KF26051 (21 labels per sheet, pack of 100 sheets = 2100 labels) for less than £8.  The Avery equivalent is £30 on their website.
