Mailing Labels
I have created a set of mailing labels using Word mail merge. I selected the option of 30 per page with 1" by 2.63" dimensions per label. When I print the page, the printed label blocks are slightly less than one inch. The labels on the printing stock are exactly one inch high. So, as I go down the page, the data gets off register with the labels on the stock.

- It could be that your printer is not feeding the label media into the printer correctly, which may be due to dirty pinch rollers that you may be able to clean.
If you print the labels onto plain paper, how does the spacing of the blocks of text then compare with the label sheet.
Also make sure that in the backstage print view that the Scale to Paper Size is set to No Scaling.I did my test printing on plain paper to avoid messing up my actual labels. I discovered the problem when I laid my label sheet over the printed plan paper entries. Where do I find the backstage print view?
dicknielsen Make sure that you are using the correct type of label in Word for the product that you are using.
