need to print on tyvex wristbands

I have a sheet of 10 wristabnd that I need to print on the shhet size 10x71/2
how do I set up

The first thing to check on is whether the vendor/manufacturer of the
wristbands provides a template. If not, define a custom page size if
possible (if not, use US Letter and make up the difference with margins) and
set the wristbands up as a table, using exact row height. This is the way
Word handles "labels" of all sorts, but since that paper size is
nonstandard, I doubt that you'll find a label definition for it (though I
could be wrong--it would be worth looking).

I would imagine that the wristbands may already be printed this way and need
to have text printed on them.

The paper size should not matter a great deal as long as the label format is
based on a larger standard size. It should be simple enough to make a custom
matching label format to A4 or US Letter paper size with the aid of a ruler
and the labels dialog. The printer will have no clue that the paper is
smaller. The only tricky part is determining whether the printer is centre
or left feeding which will affect the margin size.

True. I just thought that the likelihood of their being a built-in
definition would be small.
