Default Mail merge will not print!

Try executing the merge to a new document and then print that document onto
label stock.

I print on 8.5 x 11" sheets of paper all the time so i can't imagine this
to
be the problem, but how can I check this?

Avery 5160 is a letter size label. Possibly your printers are setup to
use
A4 as the default paper size.

Hi,

I am having problems trying to print address labels (the standard Avery
5160
variety) Here is an example file + excel data sheet used for the mail
merge:

http://www.filedropper.com/12509testmailmerge2


You will notice that the labels have been set as the correct size
(Avery
5160) and the excel data seems to display correctly.

However, it will not print. We have tried printing on 3 different
printers
without success. On one of the pritners that had an LCD, the error
message
on
the printer said "FEED LETTER." One the otehr 2 printers the error
light
just
went on.

Any idea what the problem is? I am using Word and Excel 2007 on WIndows
7.
