How to use
This mod adds a Label printer which is an item that can set a label and an icon to a container.

Printing labels:
To use the Label Printer, right-click while holding it, and it'll open a menu where you can set your icon and label. Finally, have paper in your inventory and shift-right-click a chest or compatible container to set them.
Copying labels from existing ones:
When holding the Label Printer, shift-right-click to switch to Copy mode. Then shift-right-click on a container that has a label already set to copy its icon and text.
