mail merge label

[lost in cincy]

i'm trying to print continuous labels (avery 4013 fanfold) on a dot matrix
printer, however when i use th pre-selected label format, the form shows 10
labels. Once i merge, only the first 10 of 30, labels print. Then the printer
advances a page of labels. What am I missing??

Years since I've used a dot-matrix printer, but I recall that the ones that
I did use had a series of DIP switches, one of which controlled whether or
not a formfeed command was issued at the end of each page. Sounds like you
might need to experiment with that - that is turn off the formfeed command
issued by the printer as Word is not expecting it in this case.
