Best answer:
Not in a standard printer. But you can buy sheets of sticky labels at computer shops and stationary stores and online.
One you have picked the label size and bought the sheets…
In Word go to Tools, Letters and Mailings, then Envelopes and Labels. Click on Labels, then Options and find the reference number of the sheet labels you have.

Your question is rather vague as to what you want to print, what kind of printer you’re going to use and if these are the labels you’re going to use.
1. If you want to print onto label stock just like what is shown in the picture, then you’ll have to buy a printer designed to use those kind of labels, they are called Thermal Printers. Manufacturers like Zebra & DataMax make thermal printers just for that purpose (there are other manufacturers out there, but these are the two most popular.)
2. If you are simply trying to print onto sticky labels with another kind of printer like an inkjet or laser printer, then you can purchase sheets of labels, instead of rolled labels, that are designed specifically for those types of printers. If you want to print labels using an impact (i.e. dot matrix) then you can purchase tractor fed label stock to use.
3. If you are using the label sheets in a regular inkjet, laser or impact printer to print out addresses or regular text, then most any software you wish to use will suffice. If you want to print barcodes, then you may need to purchase software to accommodate your specific task. As for the thermal printers, it would probably be best to acquire software designed for use with those printers (Zebra may still have a basic version you can download to use to print on their printers) to make it easier to design and print the labels easier than just any other kind of software would do.
Hope that answers it for you.
