= SUMMARY =

When the page height is set to 1 inch in the Preferences dialog box on the Edit menu in Microsoft Word version 4.0 or later (Page Setup on the File menu in Word versions 3.x), and a print merge is performed to the ImageWriter, only one label appears on each page for one-column labels (or three labels appear per page for three-column labels).

This problem occurs if you are using a sheet feeder or have selected Manual Feed in the Print dialog box. The ImageWriter recognizes whatever page is inserted in the sheet feeder as one page, regardless of any page-height specifications. Use continuous-feed labels, specify the height of your labels (in Preferences or Page Setup), and make sure that Automatic is selected (instead of Manual) in the Print dialog box before you perform your print merge.

= MORE INFORMATION =

If Custom Setup is used in Microsoft File to create a three-column label setup for a 1-inch page and the Save Records As Text (Microsoft Word Merge) feature is used, this same problem will occur.
