| | Envelopes won't print I'm running Microsoft Word 2007. When I go into Mailings/Envelopes and add a recipient's address (I usually change Fonts from the Default), then hit Print, nothing happens at the printer. The image on my monitor goes from the Envelope set-up screen to a blank Microsoft Word document screen. I've got an envelope snuggly tucked into the printer slot. Tried this multiple times without success. I wonder if I'm the only person who's thought about pitching Vista and going back to XP Pro. Thanks for any suggestions. -- Clancy2 |

This works in Vista and previously I have used XP, 98 and 95. I tried your way (with a blank Word doc) and it didn't work for me either. Perhaps there is another way, but you may wish to try what I have suggested. HTH Bill |

| | Re: Envelopes won't print Like Bill, I also have Word 2003, and I usually open a document containing addresses, highlight, and print. BUT.... I just opened Word to a blank document, went to Tools - Letters and Mailings - Envelopes & Labels.. I first tried selecting a contact from my Contact list, added it to the Delivery Address, and it printed fine. Then I tried typing in a name & address, and that also printed fine. Both times took a little longer than I expected, but they printed ok. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Clancy2" <jardineer@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:FFDB6BB1-8E5F-4168-A5D5-9E1BEC80F6EB@xxxxxx Quote: > Thanks.

Hey Dave, you are correct - I found the envelope from the blank document in the print queue eventually. Really slow getting there, Whether this is because of Vista I don't know, but my "normal" method works just the same as in XP and previous versions. I've been using Vista for over 12 months now.
