Mario,

           There are CD/DVD templates available in MS-Word 2010.  That being 
said, I am going to go out on a limb here and assume that you intend to use 
peel-off labels like the Avery 8962, or similar, that let you print the CD/DVD 
label you wish and then just peel and stick.

           If that's the case what you can generally download that template 
from Avery directly, in the case of the 8962 labels that are set up as 2 CD/DVD 
labels and four skinny spine labels per sheet, that's located here.  Beware, 
though, that they bundle a toolbar for Internet Explorer with that one and 
you'll want to uncheck the option to install it when you're trying to install 
the template.

           Many Avery templates are already sent along with MS-Word by 
Microsoft.  In checking on the Avery 8962 template this does not seem to be the 
case.

           I can tell you, though, that you are going to need a sighted 
assistant in order to get the printer-to-label alignment set up perfectly and 
saved for future use.  I have never had a label template print perfectly on the 
first shot ever, regardless of the label type.  I've routinely started doing 
test prints on plain paper and then holding those up with the template behind 
them until I've determined that what gets printed is in exact alignment with 
the peel-off parts of the label sheet.

Brian
