I'm havng some difficulty printing envelopes from OOO. I can set up
a #10 envelope (as a stand-alone document) with a text box for the
addressee, and I can print the envelope, but for some reason, the
printer is also printing a very fine line along the bottom edge of the
envelope. I can't figure out why this line is being printed or how to
stop it. The line is not printed on the section of the envelope where
the addressee information is printed.
I'm using Ubuntu 8.04, OOO 2.4, and an HP All in One 6110 printer.
The line is a relatively minor issue, but it's annoying that I can't
get rid of it. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
This could be a mechanical issue with your printer. Try printing your
envelope on a plain piece of paper. If the line is not there, then it's
a printer problem with handling thick items.
I printed my envelope file on plain paper on the HP6110 and still get
the line across the bottom. I also printed it on plain paper on my
Brother laser printer and there's no line, so it would appear to be some
weird thing about the HP. I believe the Ubuntu computer is using a
Foomatic driver for the HP6110. I'm beginning to think it's not the
file or OpenOffice that's causing the problem, but something about
either the printer or the driver. I'll live with it.
And in case you're wondering, most of the envelope printing I do is with
printed stationery with a color logo, and Brother laser printer is
apparently too hot and pulls the color logo off and prints it a few
times down the paper (or envelope). So I have to use the inkjet with
the stationery... :-(
Thanks for your help.
