This article assumes that the paper source is envelope. From the File menu, choose Page Setup, select the Paper Source tab. Make sure that Envelope is selected, then choose the OK button.

Winword 2.X:

This article assumes that the "Printer's Envelope Feeder has been Installed" check box is selected. From the Tools menu, choose Options. Under Category, select Print. Make sure that the "Printer's Envelope Feeder has been Installed" check box is selected, then choose the OK button.

If the envelope tray on the HP LaserJet Series IIIsi is set correctly, the following message will appear when you print an envelope using the Create Envelope command in Word for Windows:

   EE TRAY = COM 10

To set the correct envelope size on your HP LaserJet Series IIIsi, use the following steps:

1. Remove the envelopes from the envelope feeder, then reinsert them.

   The following message should appear on the printer:

      EE TRAY = <envelope size>

2. Press the plus sign (+) and/or minus sign (-) keys on the printer
   until "COM 10" appears, then press the ENTER key on the printer.

When you change envelopes, turn on the printer, or print to the envelope tray, the printer will display the "EE Tray = COM 10" message.

For more information on how to change settings on your printer, refer to the HP LaserJet Series IIIsi manual.
