Printing labels (not JLabels) :-)

Hey guys! This doesn't quite belong in this forum, but it is definitely related.
What I'm doing now is creating a simple .txt document in the format:
NAME DETAILS
ADDRESS
DATE
NAME DETAILS
ADDRESS
DATE
etc.... The file will just be full of this. Same format, different data, that I need to print. The thing is, I'm printing this document to a set of labels. These labels are only about 10cm x 7cm (width x height). So, they would be less width than a normal A4 sheet, and you can fit around 3 per page. The problem I'm having is, if there isn't a multiple of 3 labels to print in the .txt document, then the printer still prints out the whole page.
An example of the printer and labels is here: http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid183/p815d0b1ce7f2a3b8f126b099cea04d0a/f2a9ff45.jpg
You know how when you print something, the printer prints in pages. Well, if I only have to print one label, it prints a whole page, and since I don't use A4 paper, they are labels, 1 label comes out printed on, and the other 2 are empty...so I have to readjust them after each print.
Well, is there a way to tell the printer to stop after it's printed the last label? Or does this have to do with printer driver programming?
Thanks.

  • Labels not printing

    hi Friends,
    kindly guide me as i am having problem using transaction MIGO.
    when i do goods receipt in transaction, i flag the check box (Print via output control)beside the individual slip then i save it. but when i check the material documnet number created, the check box is not flagged anymore. this cause the labels not to be printed. please help. advice what configuration am i missing and what transaction should i o to set up this.
    thank so much!

    Hi Allan,
    You can maintain Output Control settings for printing  in OPK8. Please maintain the necessary settings like settings for Output Device, Spool Parameters for user.
    I think you are unable to get spool generated so you are unable to print while GR.
    Pls. try with above settings and check.
    Reward if useful.

  • Not able to print label getting standard text as it appears in so10

    Hi,
    I have a  so10 object ,script contains only one window i.e main and we call so10 object  in script  by using statement    'Include &standrdtxt& object text id ST lang EN' ( standrdrxt contains text name)but instead of printing label it is printing the exact thing maintained in so10 object. the so10 object contains lines as mention below
    <STX><ESC>K<ETX>
    <STX><60>SI<62>L1000<ETX> , etc.....
    As it is apperaing in the print preview,what is the <STX>....<ETX> and where it is maintained .What should i do so that  label get print .

    Hi,
    The below is the full information what exactly is happening .
    the user  had a Win 2000 computer that the Intermec 3600 is attached through nullmodem serial cable as a local printer.  The user would log on to SAP on that computer and selected the ZNW_DTILABEL transaction (driver program). Within the transaction, the user would specify LOCL to send communication to printer.  The Win 2000 machine is being replaced due to  discontinued support issues later this year.The new machine has Win XP and does not currently communicate with printer.
    user is telling that
    There must be something in this transaction programming that assumes language from Win 2000 that a recent 1/12/2010 Hotfix KB97220 had to be removed off the Win 2000 computer in order for the SAP transaction to communicate to the printer.
    I don't find anything in coding which is not allowing to print label, if i print from my PC i am getting text <STX>...<ETX> as said in first post instead of label.what would be the problem with XP or wht needs to be maintained in XP.

  • Labels not printing right

    I have an HP Officejet 5610xi All-in-One printer. I have never had any trouble with it. I don't think I have ever printed labels with it, though. I purchased the Avery Clear easy peel labels 8662 and down loaded the template 5162 that it told me to use. I am using Word 2003 to run this template. I designed the labels and did a test print on a plain sheet of paper - they came out perfect. Then I tried to print them on the labels - they came out way too high and ruined a whole sheet of labels. So I tried again with plain paper - it was perfect. I then put the label page back in, only this time to print on the back side of the label page - it came out perfect. So I hoped that the first ruined page was a fluke and inserted another label page - again too high! I contacted Avery and they tried to help me adjust the templates top margin - it didn't help, it still printed at the same height. Avery told me the error was in the way my printer was grabbing the labels. I need HELP! I am trying to print return labels for my wedding invitations and they have to go out this week! I still have the outgoing address labels to design and print.
    Thank you for your help!!!

  • Laserrjet 1600 Word 2007 Labels not printing

    I've had this problem for a long time.  I want to print labels using my Laserjet 1600 with Word 2007.   It won't feed the paper stock no matter what I try.   It wants to feed from a tray that apparently does not exist.  I've tried manual feeding and tray feeding.   I also have the problem with photo paper.  
    Does anyone have experience with this and how to properly set the software to do this job ?   Thanks.

    MichaelKazlow has already given some pretty good advice, but let me add to that...
    Equation Editor 3. Your statement that "MS no longer uses their much better Equation 3.0" is only partially true. Microsoft Equation 3.0 is still included with Microsoft Office. It's in Word 2007, which it seems to be the version you're using, as well as Office 2010 and Office 2013 (as well as the installed versions of Office 365 -- not the web apps versions). You get to MSEE3 the same way you did in earlier versions of Office -- Insert > Object.
    Embedding fonts. This is a good idea, but really more necessary for MathType than for Equation Editor. MSEE3 uses the MT Extra font, as does MathType, but MathType's version is much more complete. Thus, some symbols you create with MathType may not appear properly if 1) your recipient does not have the MathType version of MT Extra, or 2) you don't embed the font.
    Saving as PDF. This capability is better in Word 2010 and 2013 than in Word 2007, and embeds fonts by default. It's a Save As option from Word; you don't need Acrobat. Acrobat is better, but expensive. If you don't have Acrobat, and if Word's Save As PDF feature isn't working as well as you'd like, doPDF is a free option that works pretty well.

  • Epson RX 700 DVD label printing - "driver dealing with CD printing is not..

    Thank goodness I still have my PowerBook with Tiger 10.4.11 on it so I can print DVD labels. But I would like to be able to do this with my intel iMac with Leopard on it.
    When I try to print DVD labels on my iMac with Leopard 10.5.3 using the horrible Epson Print CD software I am getting, "EPSON printer driver dealing with CD printing is not installed."
    I searched on this message board and others have gone to the Russian website and downloaded the newer print driver which isn't available on the American website. I found driver 3.09, download it, and installed it. It shows up in English and everything LOOKs good.
    Then I try to print from the EPSON CD Print software and it gives me this error.
    Note that I also bought Roxio's Toast 9 Titanium with Disc Cover RE and try to print from that it and the print job gets all the way to the printer queue which tells me, "CD/DVD guide open". Well DUH, I'm trying to print the CD/DVD so I want it open, stupid printer.
    Or I'm just being stupid. Help. Did I forgot to stand on my head, rub my stomach, pat my feet, and chant something before/after installing the new printer driver which is supposed to work?

    I've done all that (exactly as it is suggested from the Epson support site) and I still get the same error. I called their tech support and they admitted that there is no real fix... only a workaround by doing a manual print. I had already figured that out, but all the instruction on their support site is useless.
    My older machines work fine, but our new iMacs running Leopard will not print with Print CD.

  • Labels not printing correctly

    I am printing with an HP OfficeJet 6500 on an iMac 27" Quad.
    These are product labels that will eventually get placed on glass jam jars.
    I purchased Labels # WRV5-3R_5923 from labelsbythesheet.com.
    They provided me with a Microsoft Word template.
    The actual printing is really beautiful. The labels respond with great clarity on my inkjet printer, and I am now testing them in the refrigerator. (I am making labels for jars of jam)
    The problem is getting things aligned. The bottom row boxes show up perfectly in the preview. But when I go to print, the last 1/4" of the bottom boxes are clipped off, so the bottom labels don't print correctly. 
    Then the labels seem to "move around" across the page. The first label is correct, but as one goes across the page, the border moves from left to right. The left border is about 1/4" past the label. The fifth cell on the right is  about 1/8" inch before the label.
    Also vertically, the top row prints 1/8" below the label. The bottom row prints 1/4" above the label. 
    On my printer, I have disabled all the "align and center" controls, the "fit to page" control, the "scaling" and "bounding box". So in the controls it appears the printer software is doing nothing to the original document. 

    Hi garrymtp,
    I would like to help you with printing labels. The issue you have described sounds like it a result of print margins.
    The document margins must match (or exceed) these margin settings in the portrait orientation.

  • Print labels row*column wise

    Hi Gurus,
    We have a requirement to create a report which will print labels (RTF layout using XML publisher). Our client wants supplier information (labels, single label of 8 lines) to be printed on a single page i.e. on A4 size paper, 3*8 = 24 labels should get printed like- (Below Lxy is a single label with 8 lines, x and y denotes numbers below)
    L01 L02 L03
    L04 L05 L06
    L07 L08 L09
    L10 L11 L12
    L13 L14 L15
    L16 L17 L18
    L19 L20 L21
    L22 L23 L24
    This will be a nightly job and once client will come in the morning all the labels will get printed on the A4 size papers. These number of labels in a single request may vary as well eg- it can be either 4 during one night or 29 during another, so this has to be taken care while printing.
    I can not call it as a matrix report as number of rows and columns may both get changed dynamically.
    Is anybody came across the same requirement? Please provide your valuable inputs.
    Thanks in advance.

  • When printing labels for each printed label a blank label comes out of the printer

    Hello Experts
    We have a CR report which is designed to prints labels for the items using a label printer. After an upgrade that we have last month the settings for this report are missing so the labels were coming out wrong.
    Due to this I have had to reconfigure this report and its printing preferences and so far I have managed to make the prints fit in each label. But the problem is that if I try to print 5 copies of a label, the 5 labels come out of the printer just fine, butt after it another 5 blank labels come out of the printer too.
    I have tried with all parameters in "Printing preferences", mainly in the "Material" tab but nothing works.
    Thanks in advance and regards

  • Officejet 6700 error while searching for updates: 'Printer could not connect to server'

    I recently purchase the Officejet 6700 Premium. While setting the printer up, I received the error 'The printer could not connect to the server.' I first received this while the printer was searching for updates. I later received the same error while trying to set up ePrint from my computer.
    The printer is connected through my wireless router. All other print services function normally. It is connected to the network, and I have printed several times over the wireless network.
    Though I don't think it matters, since the on-board print set-up gave me the error, I run Windows 7 64-bit on my computer.
    Thanks for any help!

    What is the IP address of the printer?  What is the make and model of the router that you use in the wireless set up? Is the router firmware up to date? 
    I would first try power cycling the router and the printer. Turn off/unplug the router and then power down the printer. Then plug the router back in and wait for it to be fully up and functioning before turning the printer back on.  After you have both pieces of equipment back on and functioning attempt to connect to web services again.
    If still having problems I would attempt to set a static DNS on the printer through the embedded web server (EWS) by entering the printer's IP address into the address bar of  a browser on a computer. 
    Once that computer displays that page click on the Network tab.
    Then look in the column to the left and find the Wireless section
    Click on IPv4
    Then on that page look at the 2nd section that is labeled DNS Address configuration
    Change the radio button to the manual option
    Then for the manual preferred fill it out and make sure it reads 8.8.8.8
    Secondary should be set to 8.8.4.4
    Then hit Apply
    Read the next screen carefully. That message with the "OK" button below it  is one that states to click that button to undo the changes you  just made.  Just navigate away from that page by clicking on another tab.
    Then reattempt to connect to web services.

  • MIGO Print label WEE1 for non stock items from GR for PO

    Hi,
    I added logic to print new label into printing program MZ07DETI which is printing labels for stock items. My label is for non stock items. The problem is that for non stock items printing process is not triggered. I created PO with Account Assign. Category F, P or K no material number and no storage location. For this type of PO no print possible during GR posting. Is any set up available in IMG to make it work. I appreciate any response.

    Hi,
    Please check up if there is any default value at the plant level;in case of such default,the system will post to the GL Account defaulted,not with standing the "standard item category".Better checkup if any cost center /order has been assigned.
    The GL item is defaulted thro'the item category.If both the goods and services have been defaulted to the same GL  Account,then not with standing the type [ie] whether goods or services,the system will post tot he same GL Acct.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards.
