Envelope Orientation Incorrect in PostScript Driver

• Microsoft Windows 3.1

SYMPTOMS

When you print envelopes to a PostScript printer from Microsoft Windows version 3.1, the output is reversed compared to output from the Windows 3.0 PostScript driver.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, try one of the following:

• Edit the WIN.INI file with a standard text editor (such as Notepad) and add LANDSCAPEORIENT=270 to the [ModelName, Port] section.


-or-


• If your printer supports rotating the envelope in the feeder, then rotate the envelopes 180 degrees.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PSCRIPT.DRV versions 3.5 and 3.51. This problem was corrected in versions 3.52 and later of the PSCRIPT.DRV file, which now supports the [ModelName, Port] switch, EnvelopeOrient=. When this switch is set to 270, Windows 3.1 will handle envelopes as Windows 3.0 does.
