When I print an envelope using Word, the text is pixelated. Anything else I print is fine. But when I print an envelope, no matter what the font or print quality specified, the font comes out pixelated. Fuzzy around the edges.
Drivers updated, Windows maint up to date. Windows 11. Office 365.
Anyone else have this issue and fixed it?

Changed to use the HP print driver vs. the default Microsoft IPP Class Driver. Problem solved.
