Hello @drk5771, and welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for posting your question. I'm here to help you get things back on track.

You can definitely print envelopes using your HP OfficeJet Pro 6978. Here's how to do it:

Prepare the Envelopes:

• Use only supported envelope sizes (e.g., #10 envelopes).
• Make sure the envelopes are clean, flat, and not wrinkled.

Load Envelopes into the Tray:

• Pull out the input tray.
• Slide the paper width guides outward.
• Load the envelopes face down with the flap on the left side.
• Adjust the guides so they touch the edges of the envelopes without bending them.

Set Up the Print Job:

• Open the document you want to print.
• Go to File > Print.
• Select your printer (HP OfficeJet Pro 6978).
• Click Printer Properties or Preferences.
• Under Paper Size, select the correct envelope size (e.g., #10 Envelope).
• Set the Paper Type to Plain Paper.
• Choose the correct orientation (usually Landscape).
• Click OK, then Print.

Use HP Smart App (Optional):

• You can also use the HP Smart app to print envelopes if you prefer a mobile or simplified interface.
• Download: HP Smart
