RESOLUTION

You can correct the problem by using either of the solutions described below.

Solution 1

Add an [Envelope] section to the MSWORKS3.INI file using the following steps:

1. Exit Works.
2. In Program Manager, choose Run from the File menu.
3. In the Command Line box, type "MSWORKS3.INI" (without the quotation marks) and choose OK.
4. Add the following section to the MSWORKS3.INI file

   [Envelope]
   Options=1
   LPTx=1

   where x is the local port being used (for example, LPT1, LPT2, and so on).
   
   NOTE: Be sure to include a blank line above and below the [Envelope] section to separate it from the other sections in the file.
   
   If the printer is an Apple Laserwriter II Plus, add this instead:

   [Envelope]
   Options=1
   LPTx=2

5. From the File menu, choose Exit and Yes to save changes.

Solution 2

Install and use one of the Hewlett-Packard (HP) PostScript printer drivers to print envelopes. Consult your Laserwriter printer manual or Apple technical support for information about using different PostScript drivers.
