- Collation: Collation refers to the order of the index tabs in a set. There are three different collation options: uncollated, reverse collated, or straight collated.
- Uncollated means that all of the tabs will be in one position. You choose the tab position when you order; position 1, 2, 3, etc.
- Straight collated means that the tabs are arranged in 1-2-3 order. The first tab in the set is on top, the second tab is below that, etc.
- Reverse collared means the tabs are (you guessed it) arranged in reverse 3-2-1 order. The first tab in the set is on the bottom, the second is in behind that but one step higher, etc.
- Cut: Cut refers to how many tabs there are per set. It is displayed in a fraction format, such as 1/2, 1/3, 1/5, etc. and pronounced "one half", "one third", "one fifth", etc. The smaller the number, the larger the tabs are; they fit the height of the sheet when arranged in a set.
- Plain vs. Mylar: Plain indexes are a plain index stock from edge-to-edge, with no coating on the tab extensions themselves. Some tabs may also feature a mylar coating, which is a laminate that goes on both sides of the tab extension to offer more durability. Typically the mylar is clear, but it can also be color-coated on some popular cuts.
- Punching: Copier tabs may be unpunched or 3-hole punched for ring binders. The unpunched offers a versatility to be used with various kinds of binding methods of your choice, as you can punch them in-house to meet your exact needs. Or if you know you will be using them in ring binders, then a 3-hole punching would be the most convenient option.
- Reinforcement: You can also order printer tabs with or without reinforcement on the binding edge. This is a clear laminate on the backside of the tabs that adds some durability to help delay or prevent tearing our of a binding edge as they are bound and handled.
- Sheet size: Letter size is the standard for copier tabs, measuring 8.5 inches wide and 11 inches high, with an added 1/2 inch extension for the tabs, making the overall sheet size 9 inches wide. Some options may also be available in legal or half-size options, or they can always be custom-ordered in any size you need; just call us at (866)537-2244 for information if you need a custom solution.

POPULAR USERS:
Copier tabs are most popular with businesses that need to print their own tabs in-house, however, are also used by individuals who want to print or write-on their tabs. Want ideas for fun and professional index tabs? Check out our Index Tabs Pinterest Board.
COPIER TAB BENEFITS:
The first and most notable perk of our copier tabs is the ability to customize them to suit your exact needs, without having to meet the custom tab divider minimum order requirements or wait for production times. You can print them on-demand, and in whatever quantity you need for your specific project. Side note: we can also make high quality custom tabs for you with just a 50 set minimum, if you prefer those to printing your own!
Another benefit is that there is a diverse selection of options that you can choose from. You may think “but aren’t these just plain paper tabs, how diverse can they really be?” Very!
① First, you can choose the tab cut from 6 different options. Tab cut refers to the tab width, and how many tabs can fit onto the sheet edge (also sometimes called "tabs per bank"). They are indicated via a fraction; for example, a 1/3 cut (one third) tab can fit 3 visible tabs along the edge without overlap, with each tab measuring about 3 ⁵/₁₆” wide (they stick out 1/2", so are all 1/2" tall).
② Once you know the proper cut for you, you can choose from the tab collation. Collation refers to the order of the tabs, and there are 3 different options: straight collated that are in 1-2-3 order, reverse collated that are in 3-2-1 order, and uncollated, where every tab is in just 1 position (so for comparison purposes, in 1-1-1 order, or 2-2-2 order, etc.). When a tab set is uncollated, you have to choose the position you want, and for all tabs except the center tab, the position contains two options. For example, position 1 flipped over is the same as position 5. Still a little confused? I don’t blame you! These photos of 1/5 cut tabs will help clarify index tab collation:
③ You can also choose whether or not to have a Mylar coating on the tab extension. This clear gloss coating adds extra durability to help prevent tearing and bending, and is ideal for projects that will be handled frequently.
④ Lastly, you can choose whether or not the tabs are pre-punched with 3-holes for ring binders.
Yet another benefit of copier tab dividers is the fact that they are made of a heavy weight 90# white, which is thick and durable, but will still easily run through many copiers and printers. To compare, standard printer paper is a 20# stock, so you can see that this is quite a bit thicker. The thick paper makes it more resistant to tearing, whether you choose pre-punched holes, or punch them yourself).
THINGS TO CONSIDER:
THE BOTTOM LINE:
Copier tabs are an essential tool for offices and businesses of all kinds that need the ability to print their own tabs, on-demand. Before you buy, be sure to check the manual for your printer or copier to be sure it can handle index dividers. And don't forget to pair these tabs with either our durable poly / plastic ring binders or our popular clear view binders.
