Default 2007 envelope printing error

Word 2007 prints #10 envelopes shifted to the left so that the return address
is off the envelope. The preview is normal. Tried to change margins, works
with 2" left margin. Worked fine before (Word 2003). Any ideas?

I suspect http://www.gmayor.com/epson_envelope_orientation.htm may cover the
issue.
Do the sample envelopes you can download from my web site print correctly?

I am having the exact same problem. I called HP and they said it was a tech
problem with Vista and Word 2007. Have you found a solution

Sure it is a tech problem. However the problem is with the HP Printer
Driver in that it has not been updated to work with that combination of
software and operating system. Keep bugging HP

As Doug says - the technical problem is that HP is useless when it comes to
creating driver software. They even have a page of beta drivers to overcome
all sorts of odd problems http://www.hp.com/pond/ljbeta/ which they probably
didn't tell you about. HP makes great hardware, but crap software.
