What 8 labels per US Letter sheet means
A count of 8 per sheet does not fix the label size: the 26 sheets here use 13 sizes and 3 grids (2 × 4, 8 × 1 and 4 × 2). Labels cover between 45 % and 100 % of the US Letter page; the rest is margin and gaps.
Always choose the template by the code printed on the box: two 8-up sheets with different sizes or margins need different templates, even though the count matches. The most common size at this count is 2″ × 3 1/2″ (6 sheets).

How many 8-up sheets you need
Sheets needed for a run of labels at 8 per sheet, starting on a fresh sheet, and when the first 2 positions of a used sheet are already gone (start at label 3).
| Labels | Sheets (fresh sheet) | Sheets (start at label 3) | Blank labels left |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | 7 | 7 | 6 |
| 100 | 13 | 13 | 4 |
| 250 | 32 | 32 | 6 |
| 500 | 63 | 63 | 4 |
| 1000 | 125 | 126 | 0 |
Which 8-up sheet to pick
Avery 5395 is the default here because Avery codes are the usual reference for compatible sheets, and it shares its exact layout with 4 other sheets on this list, so its template prints on those too. Its labels are 3 3/8″ (85.7 mm) by 2 1/3″ (59.3 mm).
If you need bigger labels at the same count, the largest are 2 3/4″ × 4 1/4″ on OnlineLabels OL550; the smallest are 2″ × 3 1/3″ on OnlineLabels OL2685. LabelGrid recommends 8-up sheets for Thanksgiving labels, Christmas gift tag labels, name badge labels, name tag labels and classroom labels.

Frequently asked questions
What size are the labels on 8-up sheets?
It depends on the sheet: 2″ × 3 1/2″ (Avery 8373), 2 1/3″ × 3 3/8″ (Avery 5395), 2″ × 3 3/4″ (Avery 6873), 1″ × 11″ (Avery 89102) and 2 1/6″ × 4″ (Avery 5385) and others.
How many sheets do I need for 500 labels at 8 per sheet?
63 sheets (4 labels left blank). For 100 labels: 13 sheets.
Is every 8-up template the same?
No. There are 13 different layouts at this count; label sizes and margins differ, so pick the template by the code on your box.
How do I print 8 labels per sheet correctly?
Download the PDF from the designer and print on US Letter paper at 100 % (“Actual size”), without “fit to page”. Print one test page on plain paper and hold it against a label sheet first.
