If you use the Create Envelope command in Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0 to print an envelope to the Canon Bubble-Jet BJ_10ex, the BJ-100, the BJ- 200, the BJ200e, the BJ-300, or the BJ-330 printer, the envelope incorrectly prints in landscape orientation.
Canon has confirmed this to be a problem with their BJ-200 printer driver version 1.0, supplied by Canon with the printer. This issue is resolved with Windows 95.
To correctly print an envelope to the Canon Bubble-Jet BJ_10ex, the BJ-100, the BJ-200, the BJ200e, the BJ-300 or the BJ-330 with Word 2.0, use one of the following methods:
Method 1: Word version 2.0 only: Set one of the following printer
heuristics in the [Microsoft Word 2.0] section of the Windows
WIN.INI file:
CANON10E=+1
-or-
BJ200=+1
-or-
BJ200e=+1
-or-
CANON330=+1 (for the BJ-300 or BJ-330 printers)
If you set the above printer heuristics, envelopes print
correctly in portrait orientation when you choose the Create
Envelope command.
NEWMACRO.DOC contains a macro called SetPrinterHeuristics that
can create a printer heuristic. To install SetPrinterHeuristic:
a. From the File menu, choose Open, and select the file
NEWMACRO.DOC from the Word 2.0 program directory.
b. Select SetPrinterHeuristics from the menu.
c. You will be prompted for the template to save the macro to
and the menu to place the macro on.
d. Quit Word, saving the changes to the template.
e. Restart Word and choose SetPrinterHeuristic from the
assigned menu.
f. Follow the instructions to set one of the above-mentioned
heuristics.
For more information on setting printer heuristics, query on the
following words in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
newmacro.doc and setprinterheuristic and changing
is a slot in the bottom of the Bubble-Jet BJ_10ex printer that is
wide enough to accept standard business envelopes in portrait
orientation. If you use this slot, you must manually position the
top of the envelope using the "FWD ADJ" control on the printer;
the printer does not automatically load the envelope to the
correct location from the bottom slot. If you use this method,
the envelopes will print in portrait orientation.
Note: The top paper slot on this printer is too narrow to load
standard 9-inch (number 10) envelopes in portrait orientation.
Note for BJ-200 and BJ200e, users: The BJ-200 and the BJ200e
require setting the paper feed lever to Envelope (an icon by the
lever) and moving the green lever on the print cartridge all the
way to the right.
Word for Windows 6.0 does not use printer heuristics to change the way an envelope feeds into the printer. To modify the way an envelope feeds into the printer, choose Envelopes And Labels from the Tools menu. Select the Envelopes tab and choose the Options button. Select the Printing Options tab. Select the envelope feed method for your printer and choose OK.
