HP LaserJet P2015 Printing Envelopes from Bottom Tray

Hi,
Every month, I need to print approximately 100 to 150 envelopes with different addresses on them, and I can't stack that many on my HP LaserJet P2015's manual input tray. I can usually only fit about ten. I was wondering if it is possible to put a larger stack in the bottom tray, which I typically use for normal printing paper. The envelopes are approximately 7.5"x5.5", and don't fit into any default paper size in the bottom tray. Is there some sort of workaround for this, or am I stuck manually loading these envelopes?

If you are up for some experimenting, here is what I would suggest you do:
1. Check out this document on how to set custom envelope sizes. While this document talks about C6 envelopes the principal is the same for any size that is not listed in the driver. You may have to set a custom size if the size you want isn't listed there. You will need to do this in order for your information to be printed correctly on the envelope.
2. Check out my pic below. While this is a paper tray from a newer product in the same product line as your printer, you should be able to do the same thing. Find the paper guides (red squares) and adjust them to fit your envelope snuggly. Make sure it isn't to tight or you will warp the envelope. Replace your paper tray. Try printing an envelope. You may have to experiment to see if the flap has to be up or down.

Any easy way to print envelopes from photo tray?

I have a new C309 printer that works well printing from three different PCs. What I want to do is load the photo tray with a few #10 envelopes so that I can print one without having to change out paper in the main tray.
The problem is, by the time I make the changes to Properties to print from the photo tray, I might as well have swapped things in the main tray. (I have to declare that I'm printing postcards or it won't let me specify the photo tray).
Does anyone have a suggestion for how to multiplex between printing letters and printing envelopes?

Address Book itself has the ability to print out labels - I'm not sure whether you have OS X 10.4 or 10.5, but there are more options in 10.5. From Address Book, select your desired addresses (or make a group of them and select that) and go to File - Print. You'll see the label options there.

PAPER TRAY SUCKS. CANNOT PRINT OUT PHOTOS, TRAY ONLY ACCEPTS PAPER FROM BOTTOM TRAY. GRRRR.

My BRAND NEW (One week from delivery) no longer prints out photos. It printed out photos several times but 3 days' ago it stopped.
The paper tray is malfunctioning. Each time I try to print out a photo (remember, it's been done several times until a few days' ago) THE TRAY WILL NOT ACCEPT PAPER FROM THE TOP TRAY!!
SELECTED PHOTOS PRINT OUT ON PAPER FROM BOTTOM TRAY ONLY!! MY INK AND PAPER IS BEING WASTED AND SEVERAL OTHER POSTERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE HP 6520!
Is one of those infamous 2-hr. long marathon phone calls to Tech Support in India the ONLY way one can sensibly have an HP issue resolved?
This is ridiculous!

HP Color LaserJet CP1514n Printer paper jam in tray 2 - How to clear same?

HP Color LaserJet CP1514n Printer
A page was torn in printing. Message: Clear jam in tray 2.
Have been trying to do just that for over 2 hours.
Any hint?

Lets try the following:
You will need access to both front and back of printer
Power off and unplug printer
After printer has cooled down (nothing is hot inside printer), slide out bottom tray
Slide out print cartridge tray. No need to remove cartridges. Be careful not to touch bottom of cartridges.
Open back of printer. Back door is opened by pulling back/away from device using notch at top. Should pop open with little effort.
From back of printer, with flashlight/Smartphone, look for jammed paper.
Be careful for edges. Not a lot of space.
Hope this help you find jammed paper.

Solution for printing Envelopes from iMac Pages FYI

Hello All,
About once a year I have tried to print envelops using Pages. I have been a mac user for 20 plus years, but have also been using windows with Word for just as long.
I try this once a year at TAX time to print my envelops and usually just give up, fire up Parrallels and use Word LOL.
I searched this site and there is no honest to God, Apple Written Solution for this problem with Pages.
You simply cannot print envelops from Pages to an Hp Laserjet printer as the orientation of the envelope will be WRONG at least with SOME printers, although a very common printer.
I am using Pages '09 version 4.3 and an iMac 27 inch running OS X 10.8.3 using an HP Laserjet 3200m connected via the network.
When you create an envelop it looks fine on the screen but when you print it it expects the envelop to be loaded horizontally as opposed to vertically. So you can't print a standard size envelop from Pages.
I found this solution first posted by Ryan K. in 2009 and it is achieved.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1970267?start=0&tstart=0
There is a discussion which follows his post and HIS method does work and is easy....
Just use Preview from the print dialog (it opens your envelop in Preview) the print from Preview and the orientation will be correct.
I read their discussion after his post but there is a lot of circular apple speak but no resolution.
Just use the Preview Program.....
(also I have a wide format Epson Photo Printer, and I have tried to use that for envelops and you can't. It gives an error.)
Just My 2 Cents.

Officejet Pro 8610 printing envelopes from MS Word on MacBook Pro

I have Officejet Pro 8610 that will not print envelopes from MS Word envelopes. Print preview shows all white. I've played with as many settings as I can find. Yesterday, tech support got it to print from pdf, but today it doesn't even do that.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I deleted the printer in Mac system preferences, reset, then reloaded the printer driver using officejet rather than airprint. Works OK. Thanks.

I cannot print envelopes from my laptop. I can only print envelopes from the host computre on the network. Why? What do I need to do?

I cannot print evnelopes from my laptop on Pages. I can only print envelopes from the host computer on the network. What do I need to do to be able to print envelopes from the laptop?

Not sure what you are saying, what printer? what laptop? what network? what have you tried? but it sounds like you do not have the printer driver for the printer you use, on your laptop.
Find the make and model and go to their website and look for the Mac Printer software and install it.
Perhaps you do have it installed but haven't found it. Look down the list next to Printer: in the print dialog.
I assume you have found the envelope templates in Pages' Template Chooser?

HT2486 When I use my iPhone Siri for dialing, it is better to have the names in the address book listed singularly. But when I want to print envelopes from the address book in a formal manner - "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Is there any way to have both options?

When I use my iPhone Siri for dialing, it is better to have the names in the address book listed singularly. But when I want to print envelopes from the address book in a formal manner - "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Is there any way to have both options?

Only way I can figure is having double entries one with singular + some unique field, (maybe called Siri), then making a Smart group for one or both.

Can you print envelopes from Contact?

Can you print envelopes from Contact?

macjack, thanks again
I followed your instructions, but when you check on any of the presets and look at what can and cannot be "preset" you see that these are the standard print settings, and have nothing to do with the dialogue box choices that you have when you first select the Style "Envelopes" when printing from Contacts.
file://localhost/Users/chvsteve/Desktop/Contacts%20envelope%20print.tiff
(Hopefully when I send this reply, the screen shot I took of the screen I am writing about will appear in this message)
The "Presets" dropdown menu above under the "Printer" dropdown menu only refers to regular print dialogue box options and not those you can select under "Layout", "LAbel" or "Orientation" from the special dialogue box for printing envelopes from Contacts.
And it is these settings that I woul dlike to fix in a preset so I don't have to repeat them every time I want to print an envelope or a label from COntacts.
Any ideas on fixing these options into a preset?
Of should I finally break down and learn something about AppleScripts and use them in a situation like this?

How to clear image in sender label to print envelopes from Address Book

Hello!
I had been printing envelopes for greeting cards using Address Book. I had always ignored the "Image" option under "Label" for the +sender's information+. Today I decided to explore this option and clicked on "Set". Then I chose a picture from my "Pictures" folder. It looks nice and I was able to change the picture several times, but now _I do not want any "image" in the sender's label_.
*How do reset the "Image" to none?*
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
Osk Asks

Hello captfred! Thank you for your reply. I tried to do what you suggested but it seems that it only works for cards in my contacts or for my own card. My problem is within the settings under label when I am printing from Address Book.
This is how I have been doing it:
1) Select a contact or a group of contacts
2) Click on File on the top of the screen and then select Print
3) A window pops up and there I can choose whether I want to print an envelope, a list, or mailing labels
4) In that same window is where I clicked on "Image" and "Set"
5) Finally I click on "Print" on the bottom right corner and I get neat envelopes with my address (sender) and the recipients (my contacts)
I hope this helps you to help me!
Thanks in advance!

MG5220 won't feed from bottom tray

My MG5220 is giving me an out of paper message when trying to print, even though there is plenty of paper in the tray. I can hear some clicking like the machine is trying to feed, but the rollers aren't turning. Feeds from the rear fine. Any way to change out the feed gears for the bottom tray without disassembling the entire unit?

Hi GunnerV and kaylakelley,
Performing a roller cleaning on the printer may resolve the paper feed issue. To do this, please follow the steps located at the link below:
PIXMA MG5220 Roller Cleaning
If the printer still does not feed paper from the cassette tray, please reply with what paper type you have selected on your computer, as well as any error message you are receiving and we will be happy to look into it further.

How do I change the font and return address when mass printing envelops from contacts?

I am trying to print envelopes for holiday cards from my contacts book. I want to change the return address name ( from Jane Doe to the Doe Family) in a nice font that is appropriate for the holiday season rather than the board room. It is certainly not in the print details menu.

Problems printing envelope from pdf file with logo & return address.

I have the 6310 All-In-One Printer. I am experiencing major problems printing envelopes (standard size, #10) from a pdf file that is setup with a business logo, name , and address. First of all, the User Guide on page 63 directs you to load the envelope with the flaps up and on the left. This prints out return address in the lower right corner of the envelope front. I have insert the envelope opposite to the User Guide to get the information printed in the correct location, the upper left corner.
Bigger problem - The logo, which is placed to the left of the business name and address will NOT print out. My preview printer window shows the logo, but it will not print. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
Suggestions???

Kindly follow the steps here:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01096354&tmp_task=useCategory&cc=au&dlc=en&lang...
