Thomas, please take a look at this again.
It is probably the way you need to do it.
Hans might not have made himself clear to you.

This is just off the top of my head, and is semi-psudo code, so look
at it and try to understand what Hans was trying to say.
PrintSomeLabels( int LabelsPerPage)
{
int LabelNumber = 0;
do{ PrintLabel( LabelNumber );
}while( ++LabelNumber < LabelsPerPage );
NewPage(); /* cut the paper */
}
PrintLabel( int LabelNumber )
{ TextOut( X , (LabelNumber*LabelHeight)+Y , ... );
}
An alternate method:
int LabelNumber = 0;
GetData();
while( !DataEof )
{ PrintLabel( LabelNumber );
if( ++LabelNumber >= LabelsPerPage )
{ NewPage();
LabelNumber = 0;
};
GetData();
};
