Start the wizard by clicking the New button above the blank envelope templates, then type in your new envelope information: Attachment (1) (in reply to Charweave) Post #: 2

I have gone with something close but it still drives me nuts that I can't print a simple project without hassles. I just wanted to print an envelope!! Char (in reply to ellengard) Post #: 3

OK, then now you must make sure that your printer also has that size selected. In any project, it is important to match the project size with the printer setup paper size.

I have gone with something close... Your printer doesn't have a custom option so that you can add this envelope size? If so, you can work around your printer's limitations. On the Print Shop project, simply shift everything over. i.e. on your printed envelope, if everything is too far from the top (as an example), then in the project window, shift everything closer to the top, to compensate. < Message edited by ellengard -- 2/26/2015 4:00:20 PM > (in reply to Charweave) Post #: 5

It also does not offer the envelope size you mentioned... closest thing I have to it is "Monarch", so I would have to click the Custom button and add a custom envelope to the Samsung list. To be fair, this was a printer issue, not a Print Shop issue. Attachment (1) (in reply to Charweave) Post #: 6
