What you should do is just execute (your) following code:

     TPrinter* printer = Printer();
     printer->BeginDoc();
     printer->Canvas->TextOut(300, 300, "First page");
     printer->NewPage();
     printer->Canvas->TextOut(300, 300, "Second page");
     printer->NewPage();
     printer->Canvas->TextOut(300, 300, "Third page");
     printer->EndDoc();

Now adjust the printerdriver -under windows itself- in
such a way that the page has such a length that there
will be cut after 1,2,3 or how many you like, labels.

Or just do a BeginDoc()/EndDoc() for every cut.

Once you have this ready then you can add the code for
printing the labels themself.
