Does anyone out there know if there is an easy way to print envelopes on a Laserwriter? If there is no easy way to do it on the Laserwriter, how about the Imagewriter? We are using MSWord and would probably prefer the "Print Merge..." option. Help!!! Andrew W.

I have found that feeding envelopes into my printer is a truly irritating process and have found a rather simple solution in printing the mailing list onto a set of sticky labels and pasting these onto the envelopes. The labels have the advantage of being tractor feedable so you can start a run and leave it. I think there might be a utility that comes with hypercard that does something like this for you. There are other label makers out there that are relatively cheap that you can get. >Help!!! I tried >Andrew W.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone tried using the LaserWriter II Envelope Cassette? I'm just wondering how well that works. I would appreciate hearing from anyone that has used one before.

I've found that feeding and indexing is much easier and more accurate on the LaserWriter. I've got a LWII - if the LW doesn't have self-centering manual feed, then it might not be so easy. I use a FullWrite file with two sidebars: one for the return address and one for the addressee. It was easy to setup: (8.5 - envelope-height)/2 for the top of the envelope.

There are a couple of DAs available through ftp that automatically set up envelopes on LW and IWIIs. I've got one called Easy Envelopes from Mark III software that keeps track of addresses and automatically keeps your return address. You can change fonts and sizes too if you want. I just got it so I don't know everything it can do, but it looks pretty interesting. I think I got it from simtel20, but I'm not sure. -Ace
