In fact, printing mailing labels anywhere on 
the page using a deskwriter and MSWord 4.0 is easy. 
Do this:
==========================
REPEAT FOR (needed) EACH ADDRESS on page
select  address, (possibly containing 
           mailmerge-variables, (use NEXT statement))
Menu: edit-position...
give a fake value to the position, 
(for example horiz. 1 inch relative to page, vertical dito)
END REPEAT
Menu: File-Print Preview
click on reposition-tool (whats its real name?)
reposition the addresses anywhere on the page 
(by dragging m, doubleclick in margin to see result)
do the mailmerge-shuffle
done.
==========================
Hope this helps!

Your page - eject problem posibly stems from 
format-section-start, or manualy inserted pagebreaks.
