HP F4480 won't print labels correctly

Everytime I try to print address labels using Word 2007 on my HPF4480, the labels never align correctly.  I always make sure I correctly select the correct margins, paper, and lable#.  I have reset the printer and done alignments and nothing seems to work.  Does anyone have a solution?

Re: HP F4480 won't print labels correctly

Just having the same problem with a newly purchased Deskjet 1000 and have found my answer.

The printer, being from an American company, defaults to "Letter" size paper.  But being in the UK, we use A4 paper and labels.   With normal printing this seems to make no difference, but with labels it misaligns them.

 

I've gone into printer properties and change the default to A4 and now the labels work fine.

 

Shame this is not in the FAQs.
