Create some simple report from the data in your table. Set the printer setup
the same as you have for your labels. Try printing the report to see if your
printer set up is perfect.

I don't think that has anything to do with your printer. Take a look at the
design of your report; there appears to be something wrong with the design.

Which version of Access?

Access 2007 has a known bug with trying to 'declare' a specific printer for
a report.

Also make sure that in Access / the report that your default printer isn't
set for the wrong printer (e.g. one that might be gone)
