The function you need is CInt
.
ie CInt(PrinterLabel)
See Type Conversion Functions (Visual Basic) on MSDN
Edit: Be aware that CInt and its relatives behave differently in VB.net and VBScript. For example, in VB.net, CInt casts to a 32-bit integer, but in VBScript, CInt casts to a 16-bit integer. Be on the lookout for potential overflows!
