Pull up a blank Microsoft Word Document.
Select "Tools" under the toolbar feature. Slide the cursor down to Letters and Mailing. Slide it to the Right and
down. Select "Envelopes/Labels."

3. A box will open up. Make sure that the "labels" tab at the top is selected. The default is "envelope", so you must click on the "labels" tab.
Below that, you will see a "print" box. If you want a full page of labels (excellent for Christmas lists, etc.), make sure the "Full Page of Same Label" radio
button is selected. If you only want to do one label, make sure the "Single Label" radio button is selected.

Off to the right side, you will see the word "Option." Press on that. Locate your label. Whatever labels you are using should have their
classification number listed on the bottom left corner of the outside of the box. They tend to be 4 digits (ie. 5162 is the number for Avery
White Mailing Labels.)
6. Once you have located your number on the box, find the corresponding number under the "Options Tab." Highlight it. Press Okay.
You will see "New Document" in the upper right hand corner. Press that.
Presto! You can now fill in an entire box of labels and send out very classy looking envelopes!
