--First Time In England on audiocassette for self-access.

These audiocassette labels print to size. You will get a white background unless your Internet browser (e.g Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) has already been set to print colour backgrounds as well as text. By printing onto coloured paper (preferably with a laser printer), you will get a better result and save on the high cost of inkjet colour cartridges.
