What I have seen so far is that the LO label is intended to print from a 
database (such as a list of addresses, and doesn't allow for what you 
desire ... and by the way, I desire.
Sorry, I am no help there.

There is a way to change the top and right margins, but that is the 
distance from the top and left edges of the sheet to the top and left 
edges of the top, left label ... not really a good answer, eh?

Assuming that one wants all the labels on a sheet to be identical, all I 
have ever been able to do is (as you say) format one label as desired, 
select and copy the desired area of that label, and past that into each 
of the other labels on the sheet ... one at a time.

Not much help there, I am sure ... I wish to know this as well, if there 
is any way to do this.  But thank you for asking ... it prompted me to 
search once again for the answer, although the answers I found (once 
again) point to stuff that is not in LO, at least not in the version I 
have.  Possibly out of date answers? Possibly the answer would vary a 
lot between OS's?
