General How-to - Print Envelopes
If not done, install the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software
Load the envelopes into the printer according to the instructions in the User Guide > Pages 13-14
Alert the printer to the paper loaded in the input tray
Create the Envelope
NOTES
Word is easy to use and more precise. For example, if you have an Address Book (in Outlook) the options include pulling in the Return and Delivery addresses.
HP Smart can print at least a standard sized envelope if it is in one of the two formats supported by HP Smart Windows (PDF and Photos / Images). The example included later in this message assumes the envelope "document" was created in the correct size and orientation and then Exported to PDF. HP Smart can likely print a landscaped Image onto an envelope just as easily.

Create Envelope
Word and Envelopes
Word is smarter about creating envelopes - if you have access to Word, it is generally a better option.
There are a few caveats, most of which do not apply to printing standard sized envelopes (of which #10 is one).
HP Smart and Envelopes
HP Smart is not really geared to print envelopes - it can certainly do so in most cases.
- The printer must be aware of the paper size (Tray and Paper Management).
- It might not be mandatory but HP Smart is "smarter" when the Full Feature Software is also installed on the computer.
- The Envelope (paper) size must be supported, either as a standard Envelope size or as a supported Custom Paper Size
- Printing envelopes in PDF format (one of the two file type print options for HP Smart in Windows) means the left margin in the Return Address will likely be shoved in to the right (closer to center). This "shoved to the right" result is generally a consequence of PDF print margins.
Example - Word > Mailings > Envelopes - #10
Rabbits_and_Chickens_Test_Envelope_10_13
Example - HP Smart - Windows - Envelope #10
