I found the printer setup and I have it selected to use my Epson with the
drivers that work with every other program. I still get this envelope

The one where you select the printer after you tell it to print something,
before you click OK. (But never mind, I have my drivers in there now).

I have Star Office 5.1a and Mandrake 6.1.
So far I'm caught up with you. I found how to setup the printer and I have
my various drivers set in there (Curiously, the driver that's supposed to
print up to 1440dpi can't be changed in StarOffice's configuration to
anything past 300, but that's another issue). Anyway, after putting in the
drivers, Star Office still botches up envelopes by printing them at the
wrong orientation and then printing numerous pages of gobbledygook until I
turn the printer off and delete the queue.
Too bad, Star Office would be great for my needs if it weren't for this one
problem.
Thanks for any input you can give me!
Karen
