I no longer have to worry about special envelope settings (including paper thickness), smearing, paper tray settings, re-tooling, etc. Once the address information is printed on paper, I fold this paper either separately or as the top page in the document to be mailed and ensure the addresses show in the envelope windows.
I developed a template docx (now odt) for future use with placeholders for this information. I make sure these two addresses match the bubbles on a bubble envelope. I finally settled on printing the addressee and return address to a piece of paper (this may also include a business logo). I tried several approaches to fix the problem with limited or no success. Good luck - there are apparently a multitude of pitfalls with printing envelopes since there is such a wide variety of printers, all doing things just a little different.īear with me for a moment and I’ll provide my current approach.Īfter years of printing envelopes with M$ Word, I ran into problems with a particular printer I no longer have. Select the text box surrounding the sender (or addressee) text and then drag it to the position where you really want it.įormat your page to a # 10 envelope size and set the margins wherever you want - enter the text - print it. Then either make a new document or insert the envelope as a page in your current document. Printer tab - select the appropriate orientation for your printer and under Current Printer go to the setup and set the appropriate printer settings - especially the paper size for # 10 envelope.
Print #10 envelope with word for mac driver#
In the Envelope tab enter the Addressee and Sender infoįormat tab under size select # 10 envelope ( the Sender position numbers are apparently derived from your printer driver “printable area” spec or something - not too sure about that - but don’t worry about it at this step.) Two ways to format an envelope: (I usually go with #1) Check to make sure the font color is set to black and the frame used by the style is printable.Here is what works for me (I don’t print too many envelopes.) (Hint: It is probably the Envelope Address style. Since the problem is with your delivery address, check the style used for that address first. You can find out which styles Word is using simply by inspecting what Word adds to the document when you choose to add the envelope. It is the styles that control how your printed envelope appears. When you make sure the printer driver on your system matches the make and model of your printer, then you increase the chances that Word will work with the printer correctly.įinally, you may need to check the styles used by Word to create your envelope. If Word guesses incorrectly, then the envelope may not print correctly, if at all. When printing envelopes, Word needs to be concerned with where that relatively small piece of paper (the envelope) is located in the feed tray and what its orientation is. Next, check to make sure your printer driver matches your printer. Check out what is in the document-in the added envelope-and you may be able to get the problem figured out. Perhaps it is really there, but the font is in some color (such as white) that your printer cannot print. Is the delivery address missing? Perhaps it is moved someplace that is not printable on your printer. Once the envelope is added to the document, check it out to see if it shows the same problems. Once you get the problem ironed out, you can again print directly to the printer.) (Adding the envelope to the document is a troubleshooting step only. The idea is to see what Word adds to the document, just to see if it looks right. Instead, add the envelope to your document. A good first step is to not print your envelopes directly to the printer. Trying to track down envelope-printing problems can be a challenge. The return address prints in the expected location on the envelope, but the delivery address is completely missing. When he prints that envelope, however, the delivery address does not print at all. When he displays the Envelope & Labels dialog box to print an envelope, Word correctly picks up both addresses and places them in the proper places in the dialog box. John has a business letter that includes both a return address and a delivery address.
