Unfortunately in this case the client specifies the label sheets and I just build the reports and they are full sheet stuff.. probably from an ink printer. I've the Dymo's before though. I used CSS and print features to get them to come out alright.. but not great.
I happened across this REALLY old tool for label printing that looks fantastic and uber-simple so far: http://www.ghidinelli.com/2003/07/03/cf_averyrtf-12-available It seems to build avery labels based on the model # of the page and in so abstracts the futzing with margins etc by exporting the prepared doc via RTF to word. I haven't implemented yet but the example looked stellar and even includes bar codes for mass mailing compliance with the USPS. I'll let ya know later today if it works as good as it sounds.
