printing envelopes

[Vincent Link]

I have a HP 697c printer. It won't print envelopes although
it has a place that is marked for envelopes. What happens
is when I put the envelope in the place marked for it,the
first sheet of paper goes through with the envelope under
it. The information gets printed on the page but nothing
on the envelope. Any help on this would be appreciated.

take the paper out. then put the envelopes in. most home printers,
including the 687c, have one input location. you can have either paper
or envelopes -- but not both -- here.

I see from reading the manual that I wasn't quite correct. there is a
"single-envelope slot" on your printer. but still, taking the paper out
and putting the envelopes where the paper was should work. to use the
single envelope slot, follow the instructions in the manual about setting
the paper size. of course, it's entirely possible that the xp driver for
your old printer doesn't have thig feature.
