Can't print envelopes via Mail Merge
I'm in Office 2007 and Word ... I have made my envelope with Mail Merge via
Outlook Contacts and printing to an HP LaserJet 3600. I had to make a custom size envelope for my 1/2 fold greeting cards. Never had a problem before Office 2007 but now all printing moves to the right even though it looks fine on Preview. HELP!!! |

Can't print envelopes via Mail Merge
Did you define the custom size in Word (i.e. in Page Setup)? If so, it
may help to define the custom paper size in the printer driver (not sure if you can do this with LJ 3600, and how to do it may depend on the version of windows, but have a look at the printer properties, then perhaps paper/quality, paper options, size, custom...) Then see if you can select that custom size in Word-Page Setup However, there are no guarantess that that will make the difference!

As Peter implies, printer drivers are generally poor with custom page sizes
and adopt the settings of the nearest pre-defined size. The simplest solution is to create a template using a pre-defined paper size of approximately the right size and re-position the margins, envelope address and envelope return paragraph styles so that they print where they are supposed to when an envelope is tracked through the printer. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org lilbur wrote: I'm in Office 2007 and Word ...
