Somewhere to Print a A4 Glossy Sticker Sheet

So I'm already close to finishing a cheapish prop of the ol'barbasol can from Jurassic Park…..

The last thing(or two depending on responses) is to print the labels of the centrifugal vials that sit in the container hidden in the can….

I know I could use a brother label printer, but the community has made a sheet(I presume A4, but I guess it could be US Legal ( :P) ) available with the whole set of labels that can be printed at home…..

I don't own a inkjet that works well anymore so I need any suggestions for someone/where that can print sticker paper….

If I can find a suitable place, I might tackle the muddy version from the later movies….

Sorry for the word salad, but typing on mobile is ass…..

Quick edit: The can looks basically like this: https://movie-memorabilia-original.com/jurassic-park-cryocan… to jog anyone's memory…..

    Try your local Officeworks. They can print sticker backed paper in multiple sizes.

      Excellent, might hold to see if there is any more suggestions, but at least they are close enough to where I live…. Thanks

      Edit: I remember price was an issue why I didn't look at them, but still a good option if nothing else comes up…

    You could buy an inkjet printer and some A4 adhesive photo paper. You sound like the kind of crafty person who'd find a use for it.

      That's fair, but I said to myself I'd hold out for a laser printer and they don't always work well with many glossy paper(including 'possible' damage)

      But it's still a good suggestion, just I only print my tax documents these days tho…. still have a old brother and HP somewhere in the house tho…..

        Photo paper can be very tough and inkjets work great with photo paper. Matte photo paper is a bit more delicate, but glossy is fairly sturdy. May not be waterproof though, I've never actually wet my photos before now that I think about it.

    Here is the page with the labels and I think a link to the can label if anyone else needs it:

    I'm familiar with a local independent print shop where the owners have somewhat more expertise (and equipment) than Officeworks. If there's something they can't do in-house they'll know where to go.
