Yes, the "workaround" in those articles seems to amount to "Don't try
to print any label except row 1, column 1." ;-)

ISTR that there's an issue with some versions of Word that no matter which
label you choose, it always prints only the first label on the sheet.* In
this case, using the New Document method is required.

*For example:
"WD97: Mailing Label Wizard Prints Only in Column 1" at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=163649
"WD2000: Mailing Label Wizard Prints Only in Row 1, Column 1 and Not in the
Specified Location" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=211904

Since the "workaround" in both these articles sounds very much like the
steps one would already have used to print a single label, I'm not sure
exactly how they are helpful.

I've never seen the wizard fail that way, so I don't know what's
wrong.

But there is a workaround: Leave the address box blank in the wizard
and click the New Document button instead of the Print button. That
gives you a one-page document containing a table (click Table Show
Gridlines if needed) matching the label stock. Type the information in
whatever cell you want, and print.

You might want to save that document as a template (.dot file) and
use it (through File New) instead of the wizard for the next time
you want a single label, or a sheet with different data on each label.

I'm attempting to print a single label starting at row 1 column 2 using
the
Word 2002 Mailing Label wizard. I have already printed a label at row 1
column 1, and then reinserted the sheet of labels. The wizard prints the
second label at row 1 column 1 even though I instructed it to print at
row 1
column 2. The label type I selected is Avery 8160 which translates to 10
labels down and 3 across. Is there a workaround for this behavior?
