--- Comment #59 from Roger <[email protected]> ---
When printing to envelopes, I've just found it much easier to just use
enscript.

I'm printing envelopes using a HP M1522NF, centered and elongated, printing on
atop the inserted envelope.

$ enscript -B -r -fCourierBold@14 --margins=170:::130  Envelope.txt

This rotates printing for landscape printing, using 130 for the left margin of
the rotated envelope.

For the Envelope.txt file, create a text file using your favorite VIM or EMACS
text editor and type the first three lines of the return address within the
upper left corner using no spaces or indentations.

For the mailing or sending address, go five lines down (or skip five lines) and
indent 20 characters (or 20 spaces) and begin typing the mailing address,
indenting 20 characters for each line, likely only three lines.

Issue the above enscript incantation.

The major difference between using this enscript option and OpenOffice,
whenever you specify a difference margin, the new margin value is immediately
recognized and used with predictable results!  Using OpenOffice, results are
unpredictable and values often ignored when looking at the results when using
OpenOffice.

In the end, I save much more time using enscript and get something of similar
quality compared to using an electronic typewriter.  About the only things
missing are using the many custom fonts, bold types, highlighting or creating
the bar codes.  All of which do tend to make mail sorting easier, but not
really needed.
