Desktop: Printing Mailing Labels

TaxSlayer Pro is configured to print labels on Avery 5160 stock or equivalent. This is a sheet of 30 1" x 2-5/8" labels arranged 3 across and 10 down. Labels may be printed as follows:

  • Print Mailing Labels for All Clients: This option will print a mailing label for all clients in your database.
  • Print Labels for Selected Clients: This option will print labels for an individual client or for a group of individually selected clients.
  • Print Labels for a Date Range: This option will print labels for returns marked complete within a particular date range.
  • Print Labels for Preparer: This option will print labels for individual preparers by entering the preparer's number.  In addition, you may specify a beginning and ending date for the labels.

Note: Printer settings should be set to "Actual Size" for printing mailing labels.

Individual labels may be printed from two areas within the program.
