Printing in Portrait Mode

By default, Excel prints in portrait mode, fitting each label in a row. This is suitable for standard address labels.

To adjust the orientation, click on the 'Portrait' tab in the Print Preview. Click on 'Print' once you're satisfied with the layout.

Printing in Landscape Mode

If your labels are wider or you need more space per label, consider printing in landscape mode. Click on the 'Landscape' tab in the Print Preview.

Alter the print margins to fit your label size accurately. Preview and adjust until you're happy, then click 'Print'.

Now that you've mastered printing mail labels from Excel, keep your mailings organized and efficient. Happy printing!
