How the Avery 22806 sheet is laid out
The 3 columns and 4 rows of Avery 22806 labels are centred: 5/8″ of backing at each side, 5/8″ at the top and bottom.
With 5/8″ between columns and 0.583″ between rows, a print that is off by less than 0.292″ still lands on the right 22806 label.
Labels cover 51 % of the page; the rest is backing.
No other sheet in LabelGrid's data (the gLabels database plus checked additions) has exactly the Avery 22806 layout, so avoid "close enough" templates.

Where the Avery 22806 numbers come from
The 22806 size, count, layout and margins match Avery's published template (checked 2026-10-24), blank template U-0431-01. Data note: Missing from gLabels. Avery publishes 2 x 2 in, 12 per sheet; die-line grid measured from Avery's blank template U-0431-01. LabelGrid is not affiliated with Avery (Avery® is a trademark of its owner); "22806" only names the sheet this template fits.
