Default Adding Avery Label Definitions

Greetings,

We're running Word 2K3, sp3.

We recently installed an HP Color LaserJet 4700 printer. Unfortunately,
we didn't discover until after the fact that standard Avery laserjet
labels are not rated to run in *color* laser printers because of the
higher temperature. If the fuser or some other part were to fail because
we were using incorrect labels, the hardware warranty won't be honored
for the failed part or parts.

Avery has a list of labels on their web site that are rated to run in
color laserjet printers (6970, 6870, etc.) but these label numbers do
not appear in the Product Number list under the label options (Tools |
Letters and Mailings | Envelopes and Labels | Options... )

We could, of course, create our own custom label definitions, but that
would mean that I'd have to go around to each user's machine and create
them (the users are never going to be able to do this themselves).

We could also download the templates from the Avery web site, but that
would require the user to take the extra step of selecting the template
before creating the labels.

Is there a way to download new label definitions from MS and add them to
Word, so that they appear in the list of Product Numbers that the user
can select from?
