Hi Graham,
Thank you very much for your response. In our case, it did appear to
be a printer problem, and we were able to fix it this morning.
I am printing out your suggestion, however, in case I run into
something like this in the future. I almost wish the problem wasn't
fixed so that I could test out the macro!
Thanks, again, for taking the time to answer my post. It has been
greatly appreciated.

A couple of suggestions you could try
Merge to a new document then use the following macro to print the
document
Sub SplitMergeLetterToPrinter()
' splitter Macro
' Macro created 16-08-98 by Doug Robbins to print each letter
created by a ' mailmerge as a separate file.
'
Letters = ActiveDocument.Sections.Count
Counter = 1
While Counter Letters
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Background:=False, Range:=wdPrintFromTo,
_ From:="s" & Format(Counter), To:="s" & Format(Counter)
Counter = Counter + 1
Wend
End Sub
or
Try using one of the sample envelopes you can download from my web
site as the basis of the merge, and set the merge type to letter.
Ensure that the print options are set to the correct tray then merge
normally.

Hi,
I have a user who is trying to print envelopes using Word 2007 mail
merge. As far as I can tell, all steps have been handled correctly,
and when we preview them, all the envelopes are there. When we try
to print, however, only the first envelope prints, and then there
is an error on the printer that says "Tray 1 Load Plain Com 10."
There are plenty of envelopes already loaded.
We have tried printing "All," specified the exact records to print
(1-525), and have tried the "Edit individual letters..." option.
"All" and using the exact number of records options print just one
envelope. If we "Edit individual letters..." the printer just prints
an error page, no envelopes.
We are using Word 2007, and Vista OS. Does this sound like a printer
problem? I can't see in Word where she is going wrong. I couldn't
find any topics in the discussion groups that matched this problem.
Any suggestions? Thanks so much!
