So this sounds like it is a configuration issue. By the design specifications on the 8600, the second tray is designed to only print letter sized paper. The first tray is adjustable. You will have to configure the settings (you can adjust default tray and tray lock through the printers control panel) so that when you want to print letters you need only select Tray 1 to do so.
Is this what you are looking for?
Let me know and I will get right back with you. Have a great weekend!

I set my printer properties setting to print envelopes from tray 2, and then removed my paper and inserted my envelope to print. (There is a picture on the floor of the tray showing the correct envelope positionsing). It worked fine and will be useful when I need to print several envelopes.
Will the driver you sent me work in a different way?
Thank you for your help!

No problem, that is what I am here for! 🙂
Fantastic that you are able to get everything printing, and the driver that I sent you is a generic driver which has a greater degree of maneuverability as far as some of the finite printer controls are concerned. Since this is a two tray machine, I am not sure how it will interact on this machine since I believe it was originally designed for a single tray machine.
I hope you have a wonderful day!

I purchased the HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus to replace a Dell wireless printer that was JUNK. I really have enjoyed the ease of use and other advantages of the 8600 (like FAX auto detect). However, it DOES NOT print No. 10 envelopes, or others I imagine, and this is UNACCEPTABLE. This printer is excellent but even the DELL printed envelopes...hell every printer I have ever owned has printed on any envelope. So why would HP make such an easy to use product that does NOT print envelopes. I have been to TECH SUPPORT and was told the printer dos not support the No. 10 envelopes (the tech had to be educated as to what a No. 10 envelope was).
The No. 10 envelope is a business and personal correspondence standard! HP what were you thinkng!!!!! Very VERY DISAPPOINTED! So FIX IT! Dont try and blame Stamps.om either HP......it doesnt work on any software program! This is your mess so fess up and create a solution not just blame other software and ignore the problem!
Every computer (3) and laptop (2) in my home is now HP as I decided to leave DELL products and have spent thousands to purchase these HP products......please dont make me regret my decision.
