Hi Eleanor Firstly, it isn't advertising, I've had this printer of mine for about six years. I'm sure you could get an equivalent in PC World, where I got it from, for a lot less than I paid then. I like it simply because I can put a ream of 500 sheets in the large drawer, and then use the smaller tray for envelopes and labels. Secondly, in Word, I simply type the address where the item is going to. Then I centre it. Then I print it, that's it. The address doesn't go over the Articles For The Blind bit, maybe more by luck than judgment, but this has always worked for me for many years, even with my previous Brother laser printer. I hope this info helps. But go down to PC World and have a look at what they offer, and ask for a printer that has two trays in it so you have a dedicated envelopes and labels section.

I need a new one and was asking a question earlier re printers. This is the very tyjpe of information I required. Now can you tell me is your printer one that is still readily available and is it very expensive. In case this is viewed as advertising maybe you would e-mail me off list please. Now I am unclear what you are saying about centering for the label. You say you go in to Word and then you write your address and then you centre it. Do you mean you simply centre from the top of the jpage or further down the page. You are saying then that all that sender thing on the lerft side of the label is untouched and you are not writing over anything? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairnsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, December 12, 2009 9:19 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Printing AFB Labels > Hi Roger > > What printer are you using? > > I've got a Samsung ML2150 laser.
