OfficeJet Pro 6968 won't print on Avery Labels properly

Prints too high on the page and gets cut off.

This is a "Pro" printer but it seems like a basic printer with poor paper handling.

I need this fixed!

• Have you tried printing different types of documents like PDF, Word, or Webpages and check if the issue persists?
• Is this issue limited to printing from the Avery app?

Kindly refer to the printer specifications to know the supported paper types and paper sizes.

This could be an application-specific issue. Contact the Avery support for assistance if the issue is limited to printing from the Avery app.

Hello Kumar!

Answers below:

• Have you tried printing different types of documents like PDF, Word, or Webpages and check if the issue persists?
  Chris -> Yes, PDF and Word document, no different.
  
  
• Is this issue limited to printing from the Avery app?
  Chris -> Not using the Avery app directly.  Generating PDFs and printing from PDF.

Kindly refer to the printer specifications to know the supported paper types and paper sizes.

Chris -> Using standard paper and labels which should be compatible with any modern printer.

This could be an application-specific issue. Contact the Avery support for assistance if the issue is limited to printing from the Avery app.
Chris -> As noted, this is not app-specific.  This is a printer problem.

Chris -> I had a OfficeJet Pro 8600 which worked flawlessly for years.  It died and I am using the OfficeJet Pro 6968 as the only other printer I have available.  It looks to me that the paper feed mechanism is faulty.  Unfortunately the printer is out of warranty so I have to look for another one unless you have any further suggestions.
