Default Mail Merge Oddity

I'm running card stock through the printer mail-merging names and address in
the address block.
I'm getting a black smudge mark at the entry edge....running from the edge
to about a quarter of an inch onto the card making an unsightly smear mark on
the far right edge of the face of the postcard.
I'm merging from an Excel Document (although I have also tried it from a
word document).
If I print onto the card stock from another WORD document, the smudge mark
DOES NOT appear.
THEREFORE, it appears that IT IS NOT a printer problem. The problem is that
the software merge program is telling the printer something that is creating
the smudge mark. I'm using the Office 2007 products......Word etc.
I have recreated the merge document a number of times. Still the same
problem.

Very frustrating. Help would be appreciated.
