-
Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
SUMMARY
The procedure for printing envelopes from Microsoft Word for Windows to a
Hewlett Packard DeskJet 500 has changed between Microsoft Windows NT 3.51
or Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0.
In Microsoft Windows NT 3.51, you can load the envelope into the printer
before printing. However, if you do this in Windows NT 4.0, the printer
ejects the envelope without printing. In Windows NT 4.0 the correct
procedure is to load the envelope after sending the print command.
