Welcome to the HP English Community --

The answer is a solid "maybe".

This printer series is not incapable of printing labels --

That said, there are a couple of significant limitations that might impact the results.

The printer is a top loading machine -- paper must be loaded into the printer from an intake tray on the top.

Top loading is great (at least acceptable) for plain paper and supported photo paper --

Glossy labels, label paper that is too slick on the back side, or paper sizes other than the standard A4 / Letter might -- or might not -- feed into the printer as expected. 

Impacted:  Alignment of the finished print

What else?

DeskJet printers, including the printers in this model series, require a larger margin along the bottom edge.

Impacted:  Job characteristics, whether the job completes

If your label template (document) does not respect the margin limitations, the print job might balk, cut off the bottom row, or refuse when "out of boundary" content is detected.

=============================

Printer - Margins

Printing - Important -

The printer requires a larger margin along the bottom edge (1/2 inch).

Borderless Printing

No

Print Margin Bottom (A4)	12.7 mm
Print Margin Left (A4)	3 mm
Print Margin Right (A4)	3 mm
Print Margin Top (A4)	3 mm

There is no software, firmware, or alignment that changes the larger margin requirement.

The solution to "chopped off" is to keep all data inside of 1/2 inch / 12.7mm on the bottom edge. 

This limitation includes all text, images, page numbers, footer information, cells, tables, lines, other notations, and all file types, too.

Create your original document with 12.7mm ( 1/2 inch ) margins.

Alternatively, and where it will work for you, Print the content as "Fit", "Shrink to Fit", or a percentage of 100% that will capture all the content on the page.
