Aligning Lables

[Guest]

I use the avery 2160 mini sheet of labels, and in Word 97, choose tools, env.
and lables, etc... I would insert the sheet of labels on the right-hand side
of my printer and all would work well. However, today something is wrong
with the alignment. My printer prints down the middle not down the right
hand side where the labels are. This use to work well, I must have
unknownly changed a setting that affected the alignment... I can't figure out
how to get it back to aligning with the labels when inserted along the right
hand side of the printer. Any ideas?

Hi =?Utf-8?B?cmljbHlu?=,

I use the avery 2160 mini sheet of labels, and in Word 97, choose tools, env.
and lables, etc... I would insert the sheet of labels on the right-hand side
of my printer and all would work well. However, today something is wrong

Hmmm. The better place to ask this might be in the word.printing.fonts
newsgroup, begin sure to mention the make of printer and version of Windows
you're using.

Right off-hand, I'd say try checking the "Printer options" in the dialog box
where you set up the labels. Also, check in the "Printer Options" of the
ENVELOPE tab. There you can usually set up how the feed should work, and this
might also carry over for printing labels.
