Why can't I get my Avery J8160 labels to line up?

I wish to print some Avery J8160 labels. Everytime I set up the page by
selecting Avery J8160 and then put the sheet of labels in the last three
lines miss the labels - they come to high. The last column also starts too
soon and the first few letters of each line are missing the label.

I have printed these labels previously but have never had a problem, it only
seems to have started recently.

Help.

Check that the printer and the page setup are both set to the same paper
size and that you have no scaling option set in the print dialog.

Hi Graham

Thanks for replying - yes I have checked the page setup and paper size are
the same and also made sure that I had 'no scaling' option set in the print
dialog. It did not work with this set up so I tried it by chaning the
scaling to A4 but that didn't work either. Anyway I managed to get the
labels on the page in the end by moving the margins and set up on the ruler
bar. I will not be needing to use the labels again for a while so I will see
how it goes next time and keep my fingers crossed that when the printer has
had a rest it will perform correctly. Once again thank you.

Scaling will screw it every time - as will having a header/footer in
normal.dot.
