i tried to print my addresses last night and i realized that you can only print a phone or email list. I cannot print the actual addresses from my Address Book. This is totally retarded.
anyone else frustrated with this?
Not only should we be able to print it, but we should have MANY MANY selections on how to print and what format to print.

I've never noticed that but agree it's pretty limited.
You could always import your data into (the free) Palm Desktop which looks to have decent printing options, including creating your own formats & layouts.

Palm Desktop's printing isn't "decent," it's fantastic. Palm Desktop is a direct descendant of Claris Organizer, so it was born as a full-fledged PIM, including printing to about 20 billion formats, including labels, dayrunner pages, etc.

The program iDress can print just about anything from your address book, including labels, envelope, or letters.

Panther is potentially GREAT for printing labels etc. However I cannot work out how to print, on a label, the name of a customer AND the company name........ with the address
This has been overlooked by Me? or Apple?

Check out the program iDress at http://www.incarna.com/ This program will print for you in whatever format you want, from a single selected rolodex card to mailing labels in every possible Avery choice. It will let you select label items - in your case name, organization, work address. I don' t think you can go wrong with this product. You can get a demo version to try out.

Or you can write a quick bit of Python, Obj-C, or probably AppleScript to generate a document for you.
I've done something similar, converting Address Book into FOAF - quite simple.
