I found some really cool business cards that can be used with laser jet
printers and I was wanting to use them to print off business cards for my
business. I am hoping there is some way of using them, as they are what I
have been looking for and to get the same style printed professionally will
cost a whole lot more then if I do it myself. Thanks for your help in
advance.


Yes, you certainly can. Word considers business cards to be a kind of
label, and you use the label tab of the dialog at Tools Letters &
Mailings Envelopes & Labels to set them up.

Assuming the cards are the standard size, even if they aren't made by
Avery, you should be able to select the Avery type 8371 in the options
for that dialog. Leave the Address box blank and click the New
Document button. In the new document, you should see an empty table
where each cell is the size of a card. If you don't see the lines,
click Table Show Gridlines.

For the rest of the instructions, I'll refer you to
