One handy way to print an arbitrary number of replicates is to add an
auxiliary table, Num, with one field N; fill it (use Excel for
convenience) with numbers from 0 to the maximum number you'll ever
need (be generous, I use 0 to 10000).

Base your label report on a Query. Include Num in the query *with no
join line*. On the criteria line under N put

<= [tablename].[LabelCount]

using the fieldname of the field containing the desired number, or to
prompt the user just put

<= [How many labels?]
