knew i shoul have saved that link a few weeks ago.......ok mine is playing up big time now...can anyone give me the link to the instructions on how to fix your herma dispenser when it starts playing up!!!!!!
the problem is it doesn't perform smoothly...once the tab goes on the paper it isn't realling in at all...i am having to pick the squares off and manually roll it in!!!!!!!!!
princessmowgli the tab thing is for the herma rolla dots thing, not the tab dispenser. niamh re the tab dispenser i gave upp after weeks of trying ( not a newbie scrapper then either, it weas embarrassing!) and went back to herma dots. you run the dispenser over the page like normal but instead of leaving a trail of misplaces tabs it leaves teeny little dots of either repy or perma herma glue. you can also rub them away with your finger if they go in the wrong place. just keep them away form the front of your photos if you print your own cos the finish will be ruined if you get herma on them

No clue to the tabs prob because I loathe tabs at the best of times! lol...
But I haven't had to mutilate my dot dispenser. I find it can get 'funky' when at or past the half way mark, when there's a lot of left over paper on the little wheel. I simply pull all the waste paper off the wheel, tear it at a logical point and resit it in the slit. Works a treat every time
oh thanks ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!...just about out of dots....m wonder if i will be calling on you again when it comes to replace the real haha
and thanks lots Tracey...I can see you have much experience lol.....have made a mental note of the bit i need to remove if my dots ever muck me about!!!!!!!
'circumcising' my herma - as TJ called it - didn't help mine either. I use white spirit to clean it and it works a bit but in the end - if you are using permanent dots - ditch it and get a new dispenser.
I use a reel almost a reel a week so have to replace my dispenser from time to time
I read this with interest. i recently bought a herma thingy - it's the one with dots - and I can't work it to save my life. It was suggested I had the angle wrong, but I've tried every which way ( even upside down) and still it won't turn and leave any dots on my paper. Blinking waste of money I think.

I found the tab thing a pain in the rear, so i chucked it!!! I loved the xyron runner, but they were out of stock all the time!!! I am back on herma dots now! I did give mine the 'snip' with the plastic thingy and work great. The only thing is i think i have repo as it doesn't seem too stick some of my things down. I thought repo went perm in the end?????? Anyway have found a spare reel which i know is perm (still in the box) will try that!

I'm sure I read on here somewhere that you can put the dispensers through the dishwasher if they get gunked up with sticky I've not tried it, but it's worth a go before throwing it and buying a new one
