D'oh...forgot to answer the question. What is "Labelmaker." It's a little
device (from Seiko) that prints out labels for me one at a time (instead
of creating a mailmerge in a word processor, which is usually better for
batch mailings). It sits on my desk and has a little roll of blank,
thermal-sensitive, self-adhesive labels that go through the machine one at
a time. They come out a little opening...you rip them off & stick them on
envelopes. Rather crude really, but it works off a COM port...

Pretty useful, actually... And yet another thing that I don't think has
support in Linux. (someone? anyone? Bueller?)
