Zebra LP2824 Label Template

I have a label template in writer and in this document the printer is set to my
label printer (Zebra LP2824) which can be seen in "File->Printer Settings..."

If I try and print and click yes to the "do you want to print a form letter"
dialog it brings ups the mail merge window and I can select which records to
print, however for both printer and file output the printer is set to my inkjet
printer not my label printer like the original document and if I then change
the printer the page is somehow not reformatted so it is printed 90' wrong.

The only way I can print a mail merge to my label printer is to run the mail
merge to a file, and then open the file and set the printer to my label printer
before I try and print it.
