= SUMMARY =

In Microsoft Works for MS-DOS versions 1.0 and 1.05, use the following steps when you print envelopes with the Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet Series II envelope tray. Please note that this tray is specially designed for envelopes and is different from the regular paper tray that has envelope guides on the top.

  Under Print Layout, select the following settings: Top Margin: 1.5 inches Bottom Margin: 0 inches Left Margin: 4 inches Right Margin: 0 inches Page Length: 4.125 inches Page Width: 9.5 inches   Select HPLASLAN.PRD or another HP landscape printer driver under Print Select Text Printer.   Adjust the top, bottom, left, and right margins as needed. Do not change the page length and width settings; doing so will cause the printer to display an error message requesting a tray that matches the requested paper size. 

Note: Using the above settings may still result in a “PC Load Exec” error on the printer; if this occurs, the printer will normally feed an envelope after 8-10 seconds. This pause is caused by the HP code handling. Works does send correct page information.
