Printing Stickers Some Avery labels might have different names than your projects. For example, Avery Business Card labels can be used for Trading Card projects, and the Avery 3.5" disk labels are used for character stickers. You can print up to 65 labels to a sheet, depending on the paper stock you are using. You can also print just one, or a selected number of stickers. Click one of the stickers, or select several of the stickers in the preview area by holding down the Shift key as you click, and then click Print. To print the entire page of stickers, click Select All. Printing Large Projects Some printers may not be able to handle large projects, especially long banners or stickers with many objects on them. If you experience printing problems, try removing some of the objects from the project. *********************************************************************** 3.
