Dear Joe and all,

        I also use my inkjet to produce labels for the various sizes and
varieties of honey I produce.  I also have problems with rain causing
the ink on my labels to run.  I sell my honey from an honour table at
the end of the driveway, so am not always nearby to cover up during a
shower.  I have always lived with the problem but recently found a
local supplier of non water soluble  ink to refill inkjet cartridges.
I havn't  tried it yet, but will next season.
