Printing envelopes

I have a Photosmart Premium 309g and am using Windows 7 (this also happened with XP). I cannot get my printer to print half fold card envelopes from Hallmark Card Studio 2007 or 2010 Deluxe. I used to have a 1350 and it printed the envelopes just fine. Please help.

On my OJ Pro 8600, When I go to print a # 10 envelope, it feeds the envelope through and then prints the address on a letter page. I was forced to set the printer preferences to #10 envelope, and within Word, set the paper type to # 10 envelope, set Word up for center feed, and then put everything back to print normally. ON my 6500 all I had to do was hit print. There must be a way to print single envelopes without jumping through all these hoops!!

How to Print Envelopes - HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP

I can't work out how to print envelopes on my HP LaserJet Pro 200 color MFP.
I put the envelope upright (flap down) in the adjustable tray at the very top of the machine (as I have done in almost every printer I've used) and it prints the address on a sheet of paper!

Hi goodgrandma ,
I see by your post that you would also like to know how to print envelopes.
I will be happy to help you.
Both the Laserjet m251 and M276 have a main tray only.
Above the tray is the jam access door to remove paper jams.
To print on the envelopes, you would need to remove all the paper from the main tray and load the envelopes in the main (bottom) tray, to print to envelopes with these two units.
If you are using Word Application, click on Tools, select Letters and Mailing/Envelopes and labels, the envelope box will open, in the envelope tab enter your address, click on Options, click the Printing Options tab, you will need to change the Feed from to Auto, it is likely set to Manual.
What is the full name and product
number of your printer? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Hope this helps.

How do I print envelopes for everyone in my address book?

How do I print envelopes for everyone in my address book? It seems so simple but after half an hour... no joy!!

I have spent most of the morning in a frustrating search of a way to print labels for my contacts. I have a couple of problems. I want to send every label to a different person at the same address. I have hundreds to do and most of them do not have a mailing address so I tried to do a bulk change of the address ... without manually changing every contact there is no way to do this. I've tried to create a template with a table (10x2) and added merge fields to each of the cells but when I do a mail merge all I get are hundreds of pages with a page dedicated to each contact whereas I want to merge on a cell by cell level, i.e. 20 different contacts on the same page.
How do I do this? I can't find label style that is appropriate and I'm not sure how to create one with 10 by 2 labels per page.
Help!

Why doesn't my HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One print envelopes - of any size?

I have recently installed two of these printers (in two different locations, one prints envelopes fine, mine doesn't)

Hello,
Thanks for the post. We may have a couple of issues here, were you able to sucessfully download and install the drivers on your system? Are you using the correct printer in your print and fax? Since you can print color sucessfully from two other PC's, I would suspect a setting on your MAC. I've included a link below where you can download the drivers for this product. Good Luck!

HP 2025/XP: Error Message when printing envelopes wider than long

Is there any way to print envelopes wider than long (e.g., A2 through A7) without getting the error message "Unrecognized Paper" and encountering long cleaning cycles between each envelope. I prefer not to feed envelopes end-ways as they tend to gather due to the paper layers. I have had some success in using cut-to-size card stock under the flap (secured with a post-it) to make the printer "think" that the envelope is longer than wide, but this is time-consuming as well. Thanks for any help.

This seems to be a commercial product. For the best chance at finding a solution I would suggest posting in the forum for HP Business Support!

Please refer to the document below for step by step instructions on how to load envelopes in your printers paper tray:

Once you have your envelope loaded properly, open up the program that you want to print envelopes from.

1. Open Word and click on Mailings at the top
2. Select 'Envelopes' from the top left hand side
3. An Envelopes and Labels page should now open. Enter your Delivery and Return Addresses.
4. Select 'Options' on the bottom right hand side.
5. Under the 'Envelope Options' tab ensure that your Envelope size is appropriately selected.
6. Select the 'Printing Options' tab at the top. You now need to select the appropriate Feed Method for your product.

Printing Envelopes Other Than #10 with HP LaserJet 4240 Envelope Feeder

I'm trying to use an HP LaserJet 4240 and an HP 75-sheet Envelope Feeder to print envelopes from FileMaker Pro. HP's specifications for the envelope feeder note that it accepts "various sizes of envelopes." However, we are unable to specify any size other than #10 envelopes in the print dialog box. #10 envelopes print just fine, but choosing a different envelope size (like C5) in Page Setup and attempting to print brings up an error message saying that only #10 envelopes can be printed and asking if the document should be scaled to fit that size envelope. If you agree and continue printing, the printer shows "Service Error" on its display.
The workaround I've used so far is to put text out to the very edge of the #10 margins in FileMaker and just load larger envelopes. This leaves too large a margin, however, and I'd really like to be able to print to the actual size of a C5 envelope.
I've tried specifying a letter sized sheet of paper and setting the paper feed to "Envelope Feeder" but the printer is smart enough to know that letter paper can't go through the feeder and asks to specify a different tray.
Has anyone succeeded in specifying a custom envelope size that will print via the envelope feeder? I don't want to have to manually feed envelopes into the printer as that's why we purchased the envelope feeder in the first place!
Thanks in advance for any suggestions anyone can offer.

Problems printing envelopes on an HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless

I have had this printer for over a year and have lived in frustration with the primitive and really disfunctional way it tries to print envelopes. The left or right side placement of a flap up number 10 envelope gets misaligned as it is pulled through for printing and on many occasions jams and tears. The center position is the only position that will work, but not flawlessly as the envelope also misaligns as it is pulled through. It often takes two or three tries before i can get an evenly or straight printed envelope. I am puzzled as to how HP would engineer a product for small business use that has such a dysfunctional envelope printing system. I am otherwise not displeased with the product for almost all other uses. It has lots of other very good features that work. But not envelope printing.
I thought I would try to inquire as to whether a download update of software might have tried to correct this problem. Am I alone in this?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Have you moved the paper guides to properly align the envelopes? I do not see how envelopes can be loaded in any position but the center with the paper guides set snugly. See page 42 (46) of the manual here. Also, if you have the optional second paper tray note that envelopes are not supported in it, you need to use the top tray.

How do I print envelopes using Address Book?

I am having trouble getting envelopes to print properly from Address Book in Lion. I have specified size #10 envelpes. When I print them, the text printed on successive envelopes moves further and further down the page until the address drops off of one envelop and is then printed at the top of the next envelope. If I print to PDF, I see the same behavior. I have an HP OfficeJet 7600 printer.
Also, when I switched to size #9 envelopes without making any other changes, the envelopes were printed as though I had switched from portrait to landscape.
Can anyone tell me how to fix these problems? I am so disappointed because what looked like a really quick and easy way to print envelopes has now taken hours and I only have 3 remotely satisfactory envelopes printed and no hope of getting more other then to do them one by one.

I have a similar problem too. I might be mistaken, but I think it creeped in when I "upgraded" to Lion and the foobarred the addressbook and who knows what else. It used to work just fine.
I have had luck printing envelopes with the Ambrosia widget. Very nice and free, Give it a try.

Printing envelopes on HP Officejet Pro 8600

I discovered that if you go to "Set Preferences" then select "Paper/Quality" then under "Paper Size" select "Envelope #10". Next apply that change and exit. Then follow the Officejet Pro example of how to insert envelopes into the printer tray. I use Microsoft office 2007 Word to print envelopes. So I indicate that the envelopes are centered in the tray and select the proper envelope size here also. Then I print the envelope addresses. End. Leaving the setting at "Envelope #10" in "Set Preferences" does not seem to affect normal printing.

Go to the 8600 Printing preferences, select "Paper/Quality" then under "Paper Size" select "Envelope #10".
Apply that change and exit.

Select the envelopes are centered in the tray option and select the envelope #10 size.

Problems printing envelopes with HP 4480 all in one

I purchased the HP 4480 all in one because I was told it would do the job(we hold a reunion each year and write to over 110 people. However I have had nothing but trouble (30 envelopes wasted already) it jams-jams-jams) sometimes at the back and sometimes at the front lots of messy hands!! Have now started to write the envelopes which defeats the whole idea of speed. Can any one help or shall I bin the printer not a year old yet.

I've had the very same issues with printing envelopes. I'm using standard #10 envelopes, so it should not be an issue. I have a new 4480 printer coming today to replace the one I have, but I am not encouraged about what will happen since I see at least another person has had the same issue.....we"ll see what happens...

How do I set up mail merge to print envelopes

I want to be able to make a data of my address' so I can print envelopes without retyping every address every month. Would I be doing a mail merge in numbers or pages and if so how.

Using Pages '09 and Numbers '09, I have done this, and it worked pretty well, but it really involves a fair amount of work to duplicate the envelope printing function that is already built in to the Address Book (or Contacts in newer versions).

Pages always prints envelopes upside down

When using Pages to print envelopes, my HP laserjet always prints the envelope upside down. Apple and HP indicate I shoudl feed the envelopes with the top to the right. This works properly with everyother piece of software I have used
I know, when I use Pages I could just change the orientation of the envelope in the envelope feed slot, or check "reverse page orientation" in the Print dialog (so the envelope is upside down in the print preview.) But I'd prefer not to have to remember random procedures to accomodate software malfunctions. Is there some preference I can set in Pages (or something) to fix this so it works correctly?
PS.I hate to post this as a question, but the Apple Support Communities (SW platform, not the people ) has sort of forces this.
Why in the world does it present "Ask a question" as the main option. Initially I skipped that, but the community search funcion really *****. Searching is incredibly non-intuitive and poorly targeted (If I'm in the pages section why is it giving me totally unrelated results from unrelated sections?
Get on the ball Apple. You broke the "Support Communities" website and the OS X built in "Help Center" years ago, and still haven''t fixed them.
Thank God for all the helpful Mac users out there, because Apple's help and support efforts (Help platforms, manuals, etc.) seem to have fallen by the wayside.

Hi John,
No help on your actual question, but some comments on the search function here.
Search offers the choice of limiting the searsch to a specific community/forum when the first results are presented. You can also limit the search to a specific user.
The basic search is a keyword search, and turns up any post that has that keyword in it (with some weighting added by then software). Searches search for "Any" of the terms included in the query unless you limit the results using commands such as AND or NEAR. Not all that intuitive, I'll agree.
One other feature of the ASC site is the 'related' topics list, "More Like This," that appears after you've submitted a query. You'll find the list to the right of the message(s) in the community. A click opn the (green) checked items will often provide a solution to your(well described) issue.
None marked 'solved' on the list at this time, but some worth exploring for hints or a solution.
Regards,
Barry
