Solution: 
Big Business 2.5 prints Address Labels in two formats for use on envelopes and parcels with a preprinted return address. Layouts have been updated to fit a standard address labels: 3-up, 1" x 2 5/8", 30/sheet, Avery(R) 5160; and 2-up, 1" x 4", 20/sheet, Avery(R) 5161. These labels are widely available in Laser and Inkjet formats. Big Business prints Address Labels from many of the QuickSeaches and individual transactions.

Big Business includes the ability to print on a previously used sheet of labels to assure that no labels go to waste. When printing Address Labels, specify the Row and Column of the next available label on the sheet, and Big Business will start with that label. Label usage is from right to left and then top to bottom. For example, the second label used is on Row one, Column two.

Always check that the labels you are using are compatible with your printer. Check your printer documentation for any warnings about printing labels or printing on partially used sheet of labels. Missing labels, high temperatures and a convoluted paper path increase the risk of a label detaching from its sheet while printing, which may cause serious damage to your printer.
