That isnt the answer though - the output still goes to the printer that
was
last used.

I don't think so. Word always uses the currently active printer. If you open
the Print dialog, change the printer selection, and click Close, your
envelopes should be printed to the selected printer.

Thanks JoAnn,

I am trying to set up so that an old printer can be stacked up with
envelopes, and that I can easily direct envelope addresses to that
printer.
So far no luck!

Cheers

Have you tried setting that printer as the default before you start the
envelope?

Can someone please help

I using microsoft word 2002.

When I use ToolsLetters & Mailings Envelopes and Labels, I want to
direct
the output to a specific printer. That menu option always sends to the
last
printer used.

Thanks

Ian
