## Questions & Answers

**Q: I haven't been able to purchase these for about 6 months and I'm very quickly running out. When will they be back in stock?**
A: Hello,
We have plenty stock of the 203B20BWPX from the LABELWORKS store. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thank You,
Epson LABELWORKS

**Q: The description states that the 1/8”(3mm) works for wire sizes awg 16-22 while the 3/16”(5mm) works for wire sizes awg 8-12. what about awg 14?**
A: Shrink tube, wire sizes is all somewhat subjective since there is a lot of variances (I've been doing this for 20 years - there is no exact science to shrink tube!)  That said some people put shrink tube on wire, don't shrink...and some don't shrink tight....so samples  usually are the best to decide what works for you. If you call us direct we will be glad to send samples.  For AWG 14 most people choose the 208 supply 6-18 AWG. You need to make sure your printer will work with 208 size.  Our printers LW-PX350, 400, 700,750, 800, 900 and the LW-Z5000,5010 will all work with the 208 size shrink tube.

**Q: Hi, my wire is 18 awg 65/36 strand, which has 3.66 mm outer dia of insulation. i must use 3/18'' (205stbwpx) right?**
A: Hello,
The 205STBWPX shrink tube is for AWG 8-12. I would recommend either the 203B20BWPX (AWG 16-22) or the 208B20BWPX (AWG 6-18). If you would like we can send you some preprinted samples for you to test. Please reach out to us on our website. 

Thank You,
The Epson LabelWorks Store

**Q: Is there a blake on clear tape for the lw - px300**
A: Yes, we currently do not have it listed on Amazon - soon we hope!  Black on Clear is available in 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" and 3/4" ...there is also a 3/4" black on matte translucent.  Part numbers respectively 206BCPX, 209BCPX, 212BCPX and 218BCPX...the matte is 218BMTPX. Tapes are available from other distribution...we are hoping to have on Amazon by end of February.  Thank you for buying Epson LABELWORKS products.  We appreciate your business.
