    Hi James,

    Regarding your concern, this issue does happen occasionally because duplicate contacts can exist if contacts were imported or synced from sources like iCloud/Gmail in classic Outlook, even though the visible People list appears to show only one contact.

    To narrow down the situation, you can try the following steps:

    1/ Print from the actual Contacts folder

    • Open Outlook classic > click People (or press Ctrl + 3)
    • In the left pane, select the specific folder under My Contacts, for example, Contacts, and avoid printing from All Contacts, Address Book, or search results.
    • Go to File > Print > choose Card Style > check the preview again

    2/ Reset the People view

    • Go to People and select the affected Contacts folder.
    • Go to View > Reset View > if prompted, confirm to perform a reset.
    • After finished, try again with File > Print > Card Style.

    You can give it a try and let me know if it works. If you need any further assistance, please feel free to reach out again in the comments of this post. I'm happy to assist you further.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding. Hope to hear from you soon.
