Where and how you plan to place and use the DoTells Tags? For example, if your DoTells tag is going to be indoors all the time, you may not need to print on weatherproof material. 2. What kind of printer you are going to use to print the DoTells Tags? Some materials are compatible with Inkjet or Laser printers only and some are compatible with both. Therefore, make sure your blank template's material is compatible with the printer you are going to use."
