Keith,

Go into the Tools / Design Labels /

select the label file / card file you want to use ---

In the actual Designer Module - go to Main Menu / Project / Page Setup /
Printer Selection  ....  change the printer over to your current one ...

Then go back into the Page Setup TAB -- and make sure that your
SIZE is what you want ... 

Looking at the PRINTER you bought -- you will have to play around with the
setups ...

But - this will do all ok for you.
