I would like to buy a Zyron label maker, but all the write ups I have read say it is impossible to load a new cartridge. I am looking at the 500, 5 inch model. Mainly want to use it to create my own vellum sentiments. Is it just a frustration, or does someone have a positive experience with one? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you mean the Design Runner or the adhesive Create A Stickers?
The create a sticker, I bought the 500 5 in one. I love how it works, I hope I can re load it.
I have the Xyron 510 model, if I remember correctly. (At work right now.) New cartridges just drop right it the top and you are ready to go. Now, frustration can be plenty, if you get any adhesive on the inside bar that the plastic wraps around inside the machine. If this happens, remove the cartridge, and use Go-gone and clean off the bar and let dry completely before replacing the cartridge. The same would probably go with the 500 model. I also have the little sticker "X" one. Not sure what number that is....
Thanks Sherri, I will keep the goo gone in mind!
The 500 Xyron adhesive has a cartridge that you just drop into the machine. It is a great machine to use with vellum. You could also use the 250 (known as the sticker maker), 150 (known as the X) or the 900. The difference between the machines is the size. The X is 1.5 inches wide, the 250 is 2.5 inches, the 500 is 5.0 inches, and the 900 is 9.0 inches wide. If you are talking about the Design Runner, that doesn't have a cartridge for the paper. It does have a cartridge for the ink, which isn't refillable. The Design Runner is like a small printer and it will print what you tell it to print. The ink cartridge is replaceable.
I have the 510 and it was super easy to change the cartridge!
Thanks Connie for responding, I appreciate the help. I bought the 500 and I have not used the cartridge up yet, but I do love it for vellum. PS sorry it took so long for me to respond, I didn't know I had any responses till late last night. Thanks again
Thanks Connie, I bought the 5 in machine and so far I love it. Thanks for the help!
I have Xyron machines from the X (which I always use on my photo corners) to the 12 inch one that I got years ago and barely use. I have never had a problem loading anu of them.
I think I want to invest in a smaller one also. I don't always need the 5" and I hate to waste. Just not sure which one. I guess need to measure my past projects to see what would work best for me. Thanks for all the help! ~Diane

I have had a Zyron create a sticker for years. Use it for creating stickers, laminating and making magnets. All the cartridges just slide in and are a breeze to change in and out. I hope you have good luck with yours too.
