Default Label Printing Error

I have Vista and Windows Office 2007. I've been printing Avery 5202 Labels
from other computers with same OS and same version of Windows with no
problem. But with this new desktop, once I create the label from "Mailings"
option and hit the print, it comes out all out of the order. In other words,
the contents are not lined as I want it to be when I've created the labels.
Some prints located top of the labels, some are at the bottom, and some
prints out of the label. Can someone please help? Thanks.

Default Label Printing Error

Check in the Zoom section of the File Print dialog that the "Scale to paper
size:" is set to No Scaling.

Default Label Printing Error

The issue is probably with the Printer. What happens if you print on plain
paper? Is the text then correctly aligned?

Default Label Printing Error

Yes, it prints perfectly fine on plain paper.
Also, I'm using the same printer for my other desktop and my laptop, and
they print all fine.
It's just this new desktop gives me a headache.
I have no idea what the problem is.
Thanks.

Default Label Printing Error

If the labels are correctly aligned when you print on plain paper, then the
problem is the paper feed mechanism of the printer, not anything in Word.
