I looked in my Canon printer manual and it shows 4 x 6 as the
smallest. But I am sure that I have in the past printed out recipes
for my wife from some recipe programs but don't remember how but it
seems like it was from online from some website that has recipes. My
printer will feed a 3 x 5 card through okay when it is placed where I
would place an envelope. I did manage to get it to print 7 out of 10
lines from some other brand of stock label when I was searching for a
standard 3 x 5 card. I just have a feeling if I knew more about what
I was doing that I could make it work. I even tried setting up a
custon under the label classification.

When I printed using the Avery 5388, using standard 8.5 x 11 paper and
selecting "single label" it printed out what I wanted at the bottom of
the sheet but in the center position. If I could somehow move the
printing over to where the evelopes print out it would be fine...

I guess if worse came to worse I could always print it on a 4 x 6 card
and then cut it down to 3 x 5 with my paper cutter...haha...

Using the Paper tab of the Page Setup just doesn't cut it because it
prints in the wrong place. It prints in the center and my 3 x 5 card
won't feed through there. The only place it will feed through is
vertically like an envelope.

There has to be a way to do this but I don't know if I can figure it
out.

Do you have anymore ideas?

Thanks so much for your help.

The first consideration is whether your printer can print on a 3" x 5" card
(many will not handle paper that small). If so, very likely 3x5 Card is
defined as a paper size in the printer driver, in which case you just select
it from the list on the Paper tab of Page Setup. If your printer manual or
Help file does not specify that the printer can print that size, then you'll
be taking a chance trying to get it to.

What you will find in the Envelopes and Labels dialog is label definitions
for sheets of several cards (such as Avery 5388, which has three cards to a
sheet). This may be the only way you can print 3x5 cards from your printer.
