All right, I retested this via testing Samba Port based printing which I
used until SpoolSS / Point-n-Print was not working properly in Samba,
back in v 3.0.2 time frame. That works properly allowing the check boxes
/ selection to enable the Envelope Feeder option to be active.

I was able to print a COM10 envelope from WordPerfect and it was pulled
correctly from the Envelope Feeder.

Port based printing is where you go to the ports tab of the printer
properties, add a port, and fill in the UNC path to the printer resource
on the Samba server.

So I believe this is specifically a problem with storing the printer
driver on the Samba server via Point-n-Print and printing via SpoolSS.
That would also tie in with check boxes not staying checked as the idea
behind Point-n-Print is for administrators to be able to publish
printers and pre-configure the driver for use with that SPECIFIC printer
and its capabilities.
