As a general rule for labelling.
View your layout at the scale it is to be printed at, say 100 000. ie. View Actual Size.
Go to the mapper and use Named Views from the Tool Manager to save off your mapper position.
In the mapper use Change View to set the mapper to the same scale as the map to be printed (100 000)
Place your labels where you would like to see them, panning around your map.
When all labels have been set, used Named Views to return to the original map position.
Your layout ( still at Actual Size) should now be the same as what will print.
I have very few problems with this method.
