Summary:

When you are using Microsoft Works version 1.00 to print a large number of mailing labels to the ImageWriter in Best or Faster quality, the printing process slows considerably after about 200 labels have been printed.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works version 1.00. This problem was corrected in Works version 1.10 when printing 1-inch labels.

When you are using Works version 1.10 or 2.00 with Best or Faster quality, Works pauses briefly before each set of 128 labels is printed, while it performs calculations in preparation for printing the labels. After the pause, Works skips one label and then the 128 labels are printed at the normal speed of the print quality selected.

When printing in Draft quality, Works does not pause or skip labels.

Note that this new behavior is only exhibited when printing 1-inch labels. All other label sizes perform the same printing behavior as Works version 1.00.
