A better aproach is to set all print labels to yes, after that go to print (Labels>print qsl labels>print). When you are in the final stage you will see Destination=printer and pages=all. Change the destination to Preview and press ok. Then you will see all the pages in your screen. Dx4win sorts the cards in every bureau. You can see that w1 bureau is from page 1-14, w2 14-20, etc. Ofcourse it could be some qsos in page 14 from the w2 bureau but it is a minor problem, i think. So after that make this all agn. Now leav ethe destination=printer but change the Pages=range and choose pages 1-14. Now you will have w1 bureau being printed. Becareful you must not clear the labels after that because this will change the pages' numbers. Make the same procedure agn and agn. When you finish do a search with f8, clear all the labels (Labels>clear print labels) and set qsl date (QSO>multiple QSO operations>set QSL date)

PS This method apply if someone wants to print cards only from one bureau, example for SV bureau...
