I can not get single envelopes to print correctly from the bypass tray. If any thing does print is in the opposite direction the envelope is fed in. I use the Word 2000 envelope tool. How can I get envelopes to print correctly? I even changed the tray input to "envelopes".

Solution : Print on Envelopes
You can print envelopes from the Bypass Tray only. Guidelines for Printing Envelopes
Print quality depends on the quality and construction of the envelopes. Try another envelope brand if you do not get desired results.
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid excess moisture and dryness which can affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the envelopes to seal before or during printing.
Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading them into the tray by setting a heavy book on top of them.
In the print driver software, select Envelope as the paper type.
Do not use padded envelopes. Use envelopes that lie flat on a surface.
Do not use envelopes with heat activated glue.
Do not use envelopes with press and seal flaps.
Use only paper envelopes.
Do not use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
To Load Envelopes in the Bypass Tray:
Open the Bypass Tray.
Move the width guides to the edges of the tray.
NOTE: If you do not load envelopes in the Bypass Tray right after they have been removed from the packaging, they can bulge. Flatten them to avoid jams.
To load envelopes, select an option:
For Number 10 envelopes, load the envelopes with the short edge going into the printer, flaps down, and flaps to the right.
For C5 envelopes, do one of the following. If the envelopes wrinkle, try another option.
Insert envelopes with the print side up, flaps closed and down, and flaps going into the printer.
Insert envelopes with the print side up, flaps closed and down, and flaps going into the printer.
NOTE: When loading Monarch or DL envelopes, remove the Multipurpose Tray.
On the printer Control Panel, press the Menu button.

Navigate to Tray Settings, then press OK.
Navigate to the Bypass Tray, then press OK.

First recommended that you use the bypass tray on the right side, also before placing the envelope in the bypass tray send the print job over first, the screen will say replenish paper then go ahead and place the envelope on the tray. and let it take it or hit the start button Ensure you select #10 commercial media and bypass tray in your print driver preferences. May also want to have tech come out and look at the tray and run MAX and Min. Adjustments.
Load the envelopes in the bypass tray select paper on the copier control panel select by pass tray change tray select normal DO NOT select envelope select custom enter size, on printer preference select envelope tray and print
You have to select the Manual Feed Tray by touching the picture of the copy machine on the LCD screen. That will then show you the paper trays. Touch the paper type soft key for the Bypass/Manual Feed Tray and then select envelope. then press ok a couple of times till you are back to the main screen. Put your envelopes face down on the Bypass/Manual Feed Tray. If you are printing from a computer do the same thing after you go to printing preference/properties.

nstructions
Use the following steps to ensure that you are ready to print envelopes.
Your printer can have either a single envelope or multiple envelopes loaded and ready for printing.
If
you are printing a single envelope, you can use the single envelope
slot and leave your paper in the lower (IN) tray. This allows you to
print the envelope and then a letter.
If you are printing a stack of envelopes, use the lower (IN) tray for loading the stack of envelopes.
To Load a Single Envelope
Do not remove the paper from the lower (IN) tray. Be sure the card
guide is in the down position, before using the single envelope slot.
Remove a single envelope from its packaging.
Slide the envelope evenly into the single envelope slot. The single
envelope slot is located on the right side of the upper (OUT) tray. The
envelope should be loaded with the address side down (flap side up).
Make sure the creased flap edge of the envelope aligns with the right side of the single envelope slot.
Slide the envelope through the slot until it stops. Make sure the envelope is not bent and is straight in the envelope slot.
NOTE:
To minimize print skew, use envelopes with rectangular flaps rather than triangular flaps.
To Load Multiple Envelopes
Slide the paper width adjuster to its leftmost position.
Pull out the paper length adjuster and remove any paper from the IN tray.
Remove up to 20 envelopes from their packing and tap the short edge of the envelopes on a flat surface to even the stack.
Slide the envelopes evenly into the IN tray, address side down (flap side up).
Slide the paper width adjuster to the right until it gently touches the left edge of the envelope stack.
For size Invitation A2 and C6 Envelopes, press the inside of the paper length adjuster handle to release and lower it.
For all sizes of envelopes, push the paper length adjuster in toward
the envelopes until it stops. Make sure the envelopes are flat in the
lower tray and not bent.
Set up the Printer Properties
Select Start on the taskbar. Choose Settings, then Printers. Right-click the printer. Select Properties from the pop-up menu.
Select the Paper or Setup tab depending on the version of the printer driver software.
In the Paper Options section, select the desired envelope size from the Paper Size drop-down box.
Click OK.
Print
Print the envelope from your chosen program. From most applications, just select the File menu, then choose Print.
After Printing the Envelopes
Reset the printer and the printer properties for the kind of printing you will be doing next.
Remove any remaining envelopes from the lower (IN) tray.
Slide the paper width adjuster to its leftmost position.
Load the desired paper into the lower (IN) tray.
On the computer, Select Start on the taskbar. Choose Settings, then
Printers. Right-click the printer. Select Properties from the pop-up
menu.
Select the Paper or Setup tab depending on the version of the printer driver software.
In the Paper Options section, select the desired paper size from the Paper Size drop-down box.
On an MP-C4500, envelopes must be printed using the bypass tray (the fold-out tray on the right hand side). Put the envelope in face-down and tighten the two fences so the envelope is snug.
When printing the envelope, make sure the print driver is set for the correct envelope size. If envelopes tend to jam in the printer, try setting the bypass paper type for thick paper.
