Hi CatherineI just go into Word 2003, type the address on my envelope or Articles For The Blind label, centre it using control E, then print. I do have a separate envelope feeder on my printer, which means not needing to take out the paper. But it works every time. With labels that are on a sheet of A4, I go into Word, press alt, T, E and E, then type the address on the label, before going to print. Within the options of that section, I choose A4 and A5, and L7161 which is the barcode on the box of labels (six rows of three columns) I use.
I know that with some HP inkjets, there is a certain position for envelopes and labels, but if you've tried all that and still not got any joy, I don't know what else you could have a bash at.

Hi, I want to print some envelopes from Microsoft Word. I'm using Word 2003 and an HP Deskjet 460. I can't get anything to print on the envelopes. I've tried two things. First I wrote what I wanted on the envelope, went into page setup, chose centred under vertical alignment, and chose one of the preset envelope sizes and changed its width and height to what I think mine is. When I measure the envelopes they are 16cm wide and 11cm high (roughly - I can't measure for the millimetres). When I say "wide" I mean the horizontal line if you had the stamp on the top right corner. Nothing seems to get printed - the printer makes noises and spits out the envelope but when I scan it there's nothing there. The other way I tried was from the envelopes and labels dialog; there I chose a c6 envelope which says it's 114 x 162mm. I pressed the print button and this time nothing happened and the printer said it was out of paper. I tried realigning the envelope but still nothing happened. This printer doesn't have a dedicated envelope tray and in the user guide it says about printing envelopes you should load it, then select the appropriate size from Microsoft Word. Can anyone help/suggest anything?
