Is there a way to force page set-up margins to 0?

I am trying to create a report to print labels (cards) onto cardstock. The
cardstock has 3 cards equal in size, but without being able to force MS
reports to set the page margins to 0, they won't line up.

Any suggestions?

Have you tried using Word for this setup? You can use the Labels templates,
and select a datasource that is an Access table or query for the mail merge.

If you really want to run the labels from Access, you would then just have
to use automation to open the document in word and print it.

You can use File... Page Setup to adjust the margins. However, some printers
won't accept a zero margin (they may need a few millimeters on the edge of the
page for the hardware to grip the paper). That's a problem with the printer
and the printer driver, not something that Access can override.
