Try add:
Top Margin + (Detail Height*8) + Bottom Margin
Don't round the answer and compare it to the total paper height. I expect
you may need to reduce the top margin slightly.

You may need to check non-printable margins in the Printer Setup, especially
if you use non-laser, friction feed such as most ink-jet printers. Since
the rollers need to holds the paper firmly while printing, the non-printable
margin is set fairly high for ink-jet printer, generally about 1.5 cm. If
this goes into the Label area, the bottom two Labels will not be used.

Laser printers don't have this problem as paper has to go through the
thermal unit to bind the toner to paper before coming out so the
non-printable bottom margin can even be zero.

Some times you can set a smaller top margin to make up for the larger bottom
margin. This also suggests that you should move your controls down a small
amount in the detail section.
