Printing Envelopes - 2/20/2013 5:14:48 AM

Can someone please tell me how to set up the software to print on an envelope? When I create the project everything is how I wanted it printed. However, when I preview the project or set it up to print, the orientation is wrong whether I configure it in portrait or landscape. When it is acutally printed, it prints right accross the middle of the envelope as opposed to longways. I have an HP 8600 printer.
Thanks, Cindy

I could not get any envelope project, either from a ready-made template or start from scratch, to print properly. This is a buggy project.

What size envelope are you using? I'll see if I can devise a work around for you.

This works for me, but you may have to move the rectangle contents to a different corner depending on how envelopes are fed into your printer.

My example works for printing a #10 envelope (4.125 high, 9.5 wide), leading edge is left side of envelope, envelope feeds into the middle of the printer.

I created a landscape, letter size project. In Print Setup, I minimized margins to 0,0,0,0. Using a rectangle the same size as my envelope helps me position my design elements. Remove the rectangle when you are ready to print. Choose letter size for the paper size. Hopefully, you won't get a paper mis-match error.

Here's a different example. It's based on using a 7.5 x 5.5 envelope that is fed into the left side of the printer.
