Printing Labels from Excel

To print address labels directly from an Excel spreadsheet, you can use the "Labels" feature within Excel itself.

Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Open your Excel spreadsheet that contains the names and addresses.
2. Select and highlight the range of cells that contain the names and addresses. Make sure to include column headers if you have them.
3. In the Excel menu, go to the "Mailings" tab (this tab may be labeled differently depending on your Excel version).
4. Look for the "Create" or "Labels" group and click on the "Labels" button. This will open the "Envelopes and Labels" dialog box.
5. In the "Envelopes and Labels" dialog box, click on the "Options" button. This will open the "Label Options" dialog box.
6. In the "Label Options" dialog box, select the label brand and product number that matches the labels you want to use. If your label brand and product number are not listed, you can click on the "New Label" button and enter the label dimensions manually. Once you've selected or created the appropriate label, click on the "OK" button to close the "Label Options" dialog box.
7. Back in the "Envelopes and Labels" dialog box, you should see a preview of the label layout. If necessary, adjust the options and settings to ensure the addresses fit properly on the labels.
8. Click on the "Print" button to send the labels to your printer. If you have multiple sheets of labels, make sure to load the correct label sheet into your printer.

By following these steps, you can print address labels directly from your Excel spreadsheet using the built-in "Labels" feature.
