Welcome to the HP Community --

 

In so much that I am aware, HP does not have any software that is particular to printing labels or stickers.

 

The printer is not aware of what it is printing -- as long as the printer can translate your document into printing language and the printer can physically handle the paper, the printer will generally print what is sent to it.

 

Top loading Deskjet printers are nice enough for standard printing but might not be the best tool for specialty paper types.  Why?  The loading mechanism might not be able to manage shiny "sticker paper" sheets   If the sheets of paper are of a supported paper size , the paper is within the supported weight class, and the surface is matte as opposed to slick or shiny, then - sure -- might work.

 

Reference

Product Specifications for the HP DeskJet 2710 All-in-One Printer (5AR83B) 

Partial Excerpt - Section Paper Handling

Media types
Plain paper, Photo paper, Brochure paper
Media weight supported (metric)
A4: 60 to 90 g/m²; HP envelopes: 75 to 90 g/m²; HP cards: up to 200 g/m²; HP 10 x 15 cm photo paper: up to 300 g/m²
Borderless printing
No

 

 

Like most every printer in this DeskJet class, this printer requires a larger margin (1/2 inch) along the bottom edge.

 

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

 

The printer does not support Borderless printing.

Borderless PrintingNo

 

These are hardware limitations -- there is no workaround using any software or app.

 

Ready to try it?

 

Word is certainly capable of creating templates and tables in the size and shapes wanted.

 

Manufacturers of the sticker product might sell or provide software for creating and printing their products.  Avery does this quite well, in fact. 

 

If there is not a sticker print product provided, if you can Export the sticker document you create to PDF, then try using Adobe Reader DC  .

Reminder

Before you print...

Remember to adjust the paper size and type before you print.
