Label printing

[JohnGOF]

On my old Hp printer, which died, I was able to select matte labels as the paper type for printing on adhesive labels.  This option does not exist on the setup for my new Officejet 6950.  Is there anything that can be downloaded to add this feature?  If not, what is the best option from those available?

Thank you.

Section Paper Handling

Media types (kind of paper) Index is supported (in various sizes, including "Letter"), as is HP Brochure Matte (weight 180 g/m2).  Even the setting for Presentation Paper (weight 120 g/m2)  might be usable as long as the label paper is not overly heavy.  The printer will likely balk if you try to select Photo paper and then load the label paper - many printers sense photo paper and cannot be tricked in this way.

I have used Brochure Matte for both labels and for business cards (Officejet Pro 8630).
