These document processors have built-in tools that can help you create and print address labels quickly without needing to introduce separate software into your system.

Choosing pre-cut self-adhesive address labels works best when printing addresses using Word, Excel, and Quickbooks.

This article will present tips on how to print address labels efficiently and directly from your mailing database in Word, Excel, and Quickbooks into a sheet of standard-sized address labels.

How to Setup your Printer to Print Address Labels?

Windows 10 is compatible with most printers. You can print documents once you connect your PC or home network with your printer. You can also install the special printer software, additional drivers, and support to start printing.

We list the steps below to set up your printer if you cannot find your printer among the printer options.

Set up a Local Printer

You can start printing right away by connecting the device to your PC for most printers.

  1. Connect your printer USB cord to the USB port of your PC
  2. Turn on your printer
  3. On your PC, select Start
  4. Go to Settings
  5. Click Devices
  6. Select Printers & Scanners
  7. Open the Printer & Scanners Settings
  8. Click Add a printer or scanner
  9. Select the printer that you want to use

Set up a Bluetooth, network, or wireless printer

If you are using a printer on a network, Windows will immediately detect that printer if your PC is on the same network. Windows will list the printers on Bluetooth, wireless, or network connection as available on a shared network. Installing these printers will require a key or password to access.

  1. On your PC, click the Start button. 
  2. Go to Settings
  3. Click Devices
  4. Select Printers & Scanners
  5. Select Printers & Scanners Settings

Tips:

  • Make sure your printer connects to the same network as your printer. Once your printer and PC are on the same network, your PC’s Office will immediately detect and install the PC. 
  • Make sure your printer settings allow multiple user access. 
  • If your printer does not show in the shared network, install the printer using the manufacturer’s manual that came with the printer or go to the Support center or website of your printer’s manufacturer for instructions.
