>>>When designing a report to print labels, is it advisable to select Whole Page or Printable page on the Print Area choice?

>>For labels, you usually want absolute positioning of your output. That's probably easier to design if you select Whole Page. Otherwise, you will get some variation in minimum margin capabilities of various printers.

>Thank you. So far I get better (more accurate) results when selecting Printable page. But the customer is still having a problem. I will keep checking.

Are you removing printer information from the report/label? Tools...Options...Reports tab...Save printer environment (UNchecked).
