Ubuntu 8.10 is no longer supported, do you still have this problem on Ubuntu 
14.04 LTS or higher?
Does it also happen if you convert the labels to PDF first and print those in 
evince?
Please provide

see whether LibreOffice or the printing subsystem is causing this problem.

Title:
  printing labels weirdness

Status in cups package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  when you open oowriter, select labels etc...
  when i "design" the labels page and put all the margins the correct way, i 
get different results on 2 different printers.
  So... i don't know if its a printer driver problem or openoffice.org problem 
(since all "normal" pages print correctly from the different programs)
  e.g. when i set the top margin to 0mm, it prints "correctly" on my brother 
HL-1440, when i set the top margin to 1mm, it starts printing at an offset of 
about 3cm from the top... which sucks because my labels start at 2,5cm. when i 
set it to 2,5cm, it prints at about 5cm from the top... so there is no way to 
get it "correctly"
  when i try printing the exact same page on my HP C5180 printer, it prints 
"allmost correctly" but still not good enough to put everything on the labels 
correctly.

  my pc is a standard ubuntu 8.10 with standard version of OOo (2.4)
  (latest patches) which i now tried to upgrade to 3.0.1-rcX for ubuntu.
  both have the same problem.
