Printing Avery Labels

When I print labels L1761/L7162 I seem to be getting the addresses half in and half out of the label box. Can anyone offer some guidance as to how I can correct this without me messing it up? Thanks

    I assume you are using Word ?
    L7161 and L7162 are completely different layouts, so are you selecting the correct one in the labels section. If in doubt, click on details and see if the measurements match what you have.

    Hi
    Yes I know that they are two different settings. The problem occurs when I want to print a full sheet. Neither of them will do it correctly and it was ok in the past. i haven't played with any settings and that's what is bugging me

    I presume you are using Avery Wizard for Avery Labels ???
    Are you using the same labels as before or a new batch ???
    Have you altered the page size settings somewhere ???

    Might be difficult to fix this over a forum.
    I find trial and error with ordinary a4 sheets and a ruler and a pencil is the easiest option.

    Printer default settings. (letter/A4, etc.)
    Page set up, margins.
    Header and footer settings.

    it's a big list to check, lots of variables..
