Business Card Template a little off...

[Guest]

Hi, I'm trying to set up some business cards using one of the downloadable
templates from Microsoft and noticing that the last business card on the
right is off by just a hair and I can't seem to move the object into place so
that it lines up with everything else. After the first couple of sets of
cards that print out, they seem to be shifting up and they are not lining up
within the card outline. Can you please help? Thank you.

Is this true whether you print on the cards or on plain paper? Usually this
is a printer feed issue, and often the problem is that the printer doesn't
feed labels or card stock the same as plain paper.

The outline of the cards print perfectly on regular printer paper, but not on
the Avery business cards, which is cardstock. I tried adjusting my feeder
tray, but unfortunately, it's a "fixed" set up. Thanks.

Unfortunately, it's the printer rollers that are probably causing the
problem. In that case, you may have no recourse but to adjust the card
layout till you get the cards to print correctly. Since you can't very well
test on plain paper, it will be an expensive proposition, I fear. You might
try testing on plain card stock, though.
