Printing Envelopes to a Phaser 8400
My envelopes include art work, so I can't use envelope printing under Tools.
With previous printers I set up the envelope as page 0 of a document or I formated the envelope on letter size 81/2 x 11. Neither works now. The Phaser 8400 will not accept loading envelopes if you're printing from a full size form. As to attaching the envelope to a document as page 0, every time I try to print with the envelopes loaded in tray #1, the paper selects from the full bottom tray. This is true even if I "force" the top tray. If I load envelopes in the bottom tray, the printer asks for full sized sheets. Can anyone suggest how to print my custom envelopes? |

Create them as separate documents, with the page size set to whatever the
envelope is. "richardb" wrote in message ... My envelopes include art work, so I can't use envelope printing under Tools.

That worked. I created a custom size equal to the size of the #9 envelope.
Unfortunately, the printer forces large upper and lower margins. I thought I could "fool" the printer by defining the custom document larger than the actual size of the envelope. Surprisingly, I could not creat another custom size in page setup. It kept reverting back to the original size.

Explorer the nether regions of the printer's set-up dialogs. Word will use
only the paper sizes and margins that it thinks the printer can support. You may need to define the envelope size within the printer dialogs first, before Word will let you use it.
