I am trying to print labels in Word 2003. I have selected the Avery 8160
label. When it prints, the top margine is onyl 1/4" from the top, even though
the details if the label are set at 1/2". I change the top margin to 1" as a
custom label, and it comes down, but not enough. Why is it not recognizing
the Avery standard label setting? It used to!

What happens if you print onto ordinary paper? Is the margin correct then?
If it is, the problem is that your printer is not capable of correctly
feeding the label stock which is a common problem with some printers.

Yes, it still happens. The problem is a setting in Word. It used to print
fine on this printer.

Check the setting for "Scale to paper size" under the Zoom section of the
FilePrint dialog.
