Default Need help printing envelopes!

I am wanting to print addresses on envelopes. When I go
to print the envelopes, however, it prints in a
horizontal orientation instead of a vertical one so I can
put my envelopes in sideways (they are too long to put in
horizontally). No matter what I try to change, it will
not print vertically. I've tried changing the Page Setup,
but it won't rotate the text when I do this. The option
for printing vertically is chosen in the Envelope wizard,
so I don't know what the problem is. Help please!

I have a Lexmark printer, not Epson. Even if I did have
an Epson, the instructions are a bit too advanced for me
to even understand what I am supposed to be doing and
where I am supposed to be doing it at...

Start with a landscape oriented page and arrange the address details on it
(by trial and error if necessary) so that when it prints, they are in the
position that you want on your envelope when you feed it to the printer.

Make adjustments to things like the top margin, paragraph indent and space
before paragraph rather than using multiple carriage returns etc.
