i'm trying to print continuous labels (avery 4013 fanfold) on a dot matrix
printer, however when i use th pre-selected label format, the form shows 10
labels. Once i merge, only the first 10 of 30, labels print. Then the printer
advances a page of labels. What am I missing??

You may need to address this question to the word.printingfonts newsgroup. My
guess would be that you need to get a new printer driver, or an updated Avery
label wizard (Avery website).

You might also try changing the merge document type to catalog/directory just
before trying to print. It may be that the new page section break Word inserts
is interfering.

If you first merge to a new document, then print that, is it any better?
