Print feature fails to print correctly with envelopes
Last modified: 2003-09-08 16:56:16 UTC
Have a brother HL-1240 Laser Printer. Created an envelope to print with letter. Followed procedure to select appropriate envelope setting prior to printing envelope. Printed envelope and return address and address are not placed in proper place. Question wheter this issue is common among other printers. Please notify when fix is completed with a point or OO update.
moving to component word processor (sw).
Rob, thanks for taking the time to post this issue. Does this problem still exist for OOo 1.0.1? Could you please list the step we need to reproduce your issue? Thank you for using and supporting OOo.
After struggling with this for a while, I think I've cracked it. The problem is that choosing an envelope format in the Format dropdown on the Format page of the Envelope dialog doesn't change the paper size and type for the printer. So, you also have to click the Setup button on the Printer page, then choose the Properties button on the Printer Setup dialog, and manually change the paper size and type for the printer. Then, envelopes print correctly.
