Labels Not Printing Correctly

I am trying to bulk print asset labels, but I am having some difficulty. I have a Dymo Labelwriter 550 Turbo, loaded with Dymo LW 30336 1”x2 1/8” labels. When trying to bulk print them, the formatting is off, and I cannot find any way to align the fields correctly. Am I missing something? Playing with the margins gets me nowhere. Increasing or decreasing the scale doesn’t help either. For some reason, the content is high and to the right and there doesn’t seem to be any way to fix.

The recommended label size is 3 ½ X 1 1/8. 

Our team is trying to find gain more information about what sizes and label makers you currently use. Would love to hear your input in the following post:
 

 

More flexibility on label formats would be a plus! Adding my feedback to the above thread now.

I’m having the same issue. I’m using multi-purpose labels 1.25” x 2.25” and it’s printing top right as well. I’ve tried printing through different browsers and through and out of Preview (using a Mac). I have a Dymo LabelWriter 450 Duo.
 

I’ve found that if I set the margins, it clips the edges instead of moving the contents to the center. The only way I’ve discovered to make this work is to copy paste the label as an image in to the Dymo software but that’s a pretty time consuming work around.

 

Has anyone found a fix or am I more or less forced to use the recommended size?

@stlee Our team has been looking into changing this process. At this moment, the recommended size is the best way to proceed. 

However, please comment and upvote the ideas on this thread to see the ability to adjust the asset labels enabled. 😄
