Default Turn off margin warnings

Is there a way to turn off the warning about margins being set outside the
print area? It's not normally a problem, but the warning gets repeated for
every section of a doc, and each page of labels is a separate section - gets
to be a pain if you're printing hundred of pages of labels.

Thanks.

The way to switch off the warning is to fix the problem that Word sees.
Presumably this document was configured for a different printer? It would
probably be simplest to remerge the data to a new document.

Default Turn off margin warnings

Word itself creates docs with margins in the non-printing area. Eg. creating
a page of 5160 labels makes the side margins 0.19 in, while most printers
require at least 0.25.

But if you 'fix' the margins, all that are lost are the outside borders of
the table, which for mailing labels shouldn't be relevant - but it will
eliminate the error message.

Not necessarily. Sometimes Word has qualms about the margins for no
discernible reason.
