MS Office Forum / Word / Menus and Toolbars / February 2004Printer selection for labels
Hi In word xp when I select Tools->Letters and Mailings->Envelopes and Labels menu and then Labels tab, type my label address then there is no way to select a printer at this point. Print simply prints to the default printer. Is there a way around this i.e. to be bale to select a specific printer for the label? I am doing single labels. Thanks Regards Don't enter the address into the label dialog and leave the setting at Full page of the same label so that the New Document button remains enabled. Click on this button and a new document will be created with a table on it that conforms to the selected labels (that's all labels are in Word). Click on the Show gridlines item on the Tables menu if you do not see it. Then enter the details into the label that is in the position that you want to use and then you can use File>Print in the ordinary manner.  SignaturePlease post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis. Hope this helps Doug Robbins - Word MVP > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Regards The alternative is to change the active printer before you use the label tool - from the print dialog (or by macro).
