There is no built-in command to print labels from Google Sheets. But we can use add-ons to do so. Here, we will use the Create & Print Labels – Label Maker for Avery and Co add-on to print labels from Google Sheets.

Step-by-Step Guide to Print Labels from Google Sheets

There are some easy steps involved in printing labels. You can quickly print labels from Google Sheets, saving time and streamlining the labeling process, by following the steps shown below.

Step1. Making a Dataset

Create a new Google Sheet if you don’t already have one with the information you wish to use for your labels. Open the current sheet if you have one. Typical label information includes name, address, city, state, zip code, etc. Therefore, the first step in printing labels is to generate a dataset that looks like the one below.
The dataset’s header row must be row 1 in order for the Add-on to print labels correctly. Therefore, check that the data in your Google Sheets is formatted correctly for your labels.

Step 2. Installing Create and Print Labels Add-on

If the Create & Print Labels – Label Maker for Avery and Co add-on is not already installed in our Google Sheets file, first install it from the Google Workspace Marketplace.
To do so, first, click the Extensions tab, then choose Add-ons from the list that appears, and lastly click the Get Add-ons option.

As a result, a pop-up window titled Google Workspace Marketplace will appear on your screen. Next, click on the Search apps box.

In the search box, enter the phrase Create and Print Labels and press Enter. Then choose the Create & Print Labels – Label Maker for Avery and Co add-on from the search results.

After choosing the aforementioned add-on, press Install to add it to our Google Sheets.

Afterward, click on the Close icon to close the pop-up window once the necessary add-on has been installed.

Step 3. Launching Create and Print Labels Add-on

Click it and select the Create labels option from it.
