I use plain latex for envelopes, see the following files called 'envelope'
and 'envelope.tex'. The package envbig is required.
==========================================
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{envbig}
%
\begin{document}
%
\sffamily
%\from{Me at\\My Address}
\to{\large{
\hspace {-25mm}Name\\
\hspace {-25mm}Address 1\\
\hspace {-25mm}Address 2\\
\hspace {-25mm}Address 3\\
\hspace {-25mm}Address 4\\
\hspace {-25mm}Address 5\\
%\hspace {-25mm}\\
}}
\envelope
\rmfamily
\end{document}
=============================================
#!/bin/bash
#
rm envelope.dvi
rm envelope.ps
latex envelope.tex
dvips -m -t landscape envelope.dvi
lpr envelope.ps
