Options to Print Address Labels from Excel in QuickBooks

This is the way you can find the options available to print address labels in QuickBooks. You need to ensure that your printer is on and that the given sheets for the labels or cards are loaded properly in the printer.

• First of all, Go to the File menu and click on the Print Forms
• Then choose the Labels.
• Select the names you wish to appear on the labels.
• A Drop down will appear from the list and then you need to choose Customer, Employee, Supplier, or select Multiple names and tick off individual names specifically.

Option One: You can also choose to target your mailing to a specific geographic area, by specifying a particular Postal Code or group of Postal Codes to print out as labels.

In order to do this, you need to select the Postal Codes. This starts with a checkbox and you need to enter the Post Code (or partial Postal Code) that you want to use to limit your printing. You can choose part of a code eg 20 or 200 for all codes that start with that, or full postcode, but not multiple codes at once.

Option Two: For sorting the labels or cards by Postcodes, you can also click on the Sort By button from the drop-down list and you also need to choose the Postal Codes. Otherwise, QuickBooks accounts will sort the labels or cards alphabetically by name which might not be your preference.

With this situation, you need to select the Print specific Ship To addresses where it has a checkbox available. Otherwise, the QuickBooks account prints the billing address. Also choose to include Inactive Names or Jobs to ensure you do not miss out on any.
