Default Direct Printing on Divider Paper

I don't know if they're still made, but didn't Avery use to make oversized
tabbed dividers with the tabs initially folded in, so that they could be
printed that way? I would still be concerned about the tabs setting chewed
up, though, since printing on them is a little different from feeding an
envelope, where the flap is on the opposite side to the printed one.

As previously mentioned, your printer must be able to handle the
"oversize"
stock.
If it does, you may find you have to rotate your print image by 180 deg.
as
usually the printer will take the divider "backwards", i.e. the non-tabbed
side first.

To get you started, go to the Avery or MS websites as they have pre-setup
templates for the various types of dividers, just download the one you
want,
i.e. the stock size, say Oversize A4, and what design of tabs, say 1-5
tabs,
and off you go.

Hope this helps
