Do you have the ability to add more memory?
You are printing envelopes, right?
Are you using the
Format Page Paper - Format DL envelope
and then deal with it from there?
I would format the page to the envelope I wanted instead of doing it
on the printer side of the process.
Also, there may be something in your profile that might be causing
some issues with the printer. This has happened to be from time to
time with LO and the OOo before that.
I use Ubuntu 12.04 with MATE desktop environment.
printers - in use: HP Laserjet 2300dn, HP inkjet 7000, Canon MG6220
printers on the shelf - Epson Artisan 810, several HP inkjets, plus
2 DELL inkjets.
use to have HP 2600 color laser and a HP Laser 4 plus[?] but are dead
now.
so I have a bit of experience with printers.

Mageia 3, KDE4, LibraOffice Version 4.0.3.3 (Build ID: 4.0.3.3-2.mga3)
HP Laserjet 4m plus 9 MB memory
Error message: PC Load DL
where PC = Paper Cassette
where DL = paper size (approx. 1/3 of A4 sheet)
Printer paper is US Letter
Printer installed on Mageia 3 as US Letter
Printer in LibraOffice defaults to US Letter for full sheet
Printer in LibraOffice defaults to DL for envelope
Is this normal/expected behavior? Would not we have expected a
default envelope size more related to the paper size?
Navigation:
(after inserting an envelope in a text document)
File - Print - (select printer) - Properties - (Paper size reads:
Env DL)
Work around (on a per job basis):
Change paper size - OK - OK - File - Save (or Save As)
Another work around ... build templates
Any help/hints/suggestions?
Thank you

Thank you for your reply. I shall answer your question, but first to
clarify the question:
This question is not about workarounds or the mismatch of user interface
and locale settings, but rather:
Why, if LibreOffice knows the paper is US letter, does inserted envelope
default to DL? Wouldn't it be more reasonable to expect a match between
paper and envelope size as the default? Or is this not
possible/reasonable? By the way, I did not have this issue under Apache
OOo under Mageia 2.
A second question, if I may: What do each of the settings control (user
interface, and locale)?
Answering your questions:
Memory: not an issue with LibreOffice ... sometime with websites and
some PDF's ... Ran OK under Apache OpenOffice, too.
Memory: printer is maxed out.
Envelope: printing fine
Format Page Paper - Format DL envelope? No, I am doing it through
File - Printer Settings
Doing it through Format gives a nice result, too, if one remembers to
set it to landscape
And either method can be saved/applied to the document
Thanks again
Regards
Fred James
