Turn on your printer. Some laser printers may require a few moments to warm up.
Decide which label you will be using. Look on the box of labels if you are unsure.
Open your word processing software. The more powerful office applications may make your task simpler, but even the simplest applications have label-printing capability.
Click the "Tools" pull down menu. This is usually found at the top of the screen.
