According to my calculations assuming A4 paper (297 mm height), you won't
get this to work. Your printer is not capable of printing close enough to
either the top or bottom of the page.
  1,69 + 12.45 + (8*37) >310
Normally inkjet label paper "burns" half label (18.5 mm) at the top and half
label at the bottom.
