Need help printing envelopes with HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw.  Used other HP printers with no problem printing envelopes. I've googled for suggestions, followed direction, nothing prints on envelope.  I've been using computers & many different printers for over 30 years. HELP!

Hi @LN-TN,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

I can certainly try to assist you with troubleshooting the issue of printing envelopes on your HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw. Here are some steps you can try.

• Ensure Envelope Settings: Make sure that the envelope size and type settings are correctly configured in both your printer settings and the software you're using to print. Envelopes typically require different settings than standard paper, such as a different paper size and paper type.
• Load Envelopes Correctly: Ensure that you are loading the envelopes into the printer tray correctly. Most printers have a specific orientation for loading envelopes, often with a diagram on the tray itself.
• Use Manual Feed Tray: Some printers, including the HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw, have a manual feed tray specifically designed for printing envelopes and other specialty media. Try using this tray if your printer has one.
• Check Printer Firmware/Driver Updates: Make sure that your printer's firmware and drivers are up to date. Sometimes, issues with envelope printing can be resolved through software updates.
• Check Printer Compatibility: Confirm that your printer model supports printing on envelopes. While most modern printers do, it's always good to double-check the specifications to be sure.
• Try Different Software: If you're still having trouble, try printing from a different software program to see if the issue is specific to the software you were using initially.
• Printer Calibration: Some printers may require calibration for printing on envelopes. Check the printer's user manual or online documentation for instructions on how to calibrate the printer for envelope printing.
• Test Print: Print a test page to see if the printer is able to print on regular paper. If it can print on regular paper but not envelopes, then the issue is likely related to the envelope settings or loading process.

By following these steps, you should hopefully be able to troubleshoot and resolve the issue with printing envelopes on your HP LaserJet Pro MFP 4101fdw.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
