Only 30 of 57 labels printing

Asked by Chris Juergens

I set up printing labels from a spreadsheet but only one page is printed containing 30 records. There are 27 other records which do not print. What setting do I change to include all 57 records? When I set up the document all 57 records were high-lighted.

Hi,
I do not have the slightest idea what you were doing, how did you set up your spreadsheet? How do you print (you click the print-button) you choose file > print, and in the print-dialog, what choices did you make? Remember, i cannot look over your shoulder to look what you were doing, so i cannot provide an answer very easily.
However, i can give it a try. When it does not work, please provide a step by step procedure so i can follow your steps and figure out what went wrong....

try this: select all your labels, and then press {ctrl+p}, and choose "Selection" and press ok.

ofcourse, this makes me curious... how did you solve it? (also for the rest of the "audience" who might also experience problems like this?

Even though my data source had 57 entries the label sheet I was using only had 30 labels so I had to choose the first thirty and print them and then create another label sheet with the next 27 entries. When I picked all 57 at the first go-around it would only print the first 30. This might be just a work-around but it worked. It would be a difficult work-around if the data source had hundreds or thousands of entries.
