Is there a fix in the works?
We’ve tried everything to correctly print envelopes with our Brother MFC-8710DW, but no matter what, it can’t print them with the right orientation. The Insert Envelope wizard appears to allow us to choose the right orientation (both envelope and text), but no matter what, the print comes out perpendicular to the envelope.
The MFC-8710DW requires that A10 envelopes be fed the long way from end-to-end (=), as opposed to from top-to-bottom(||). The Insert Envelope wizard indicates that this can be done, but no matter what we do, the text is printed as if the envelope was inserted from top-to-bottom (i.e., perpendicular to the envelope).
We’ve wasted HOURS trying to make this work, but we’ve concluded that it just isn’t possible with LibreOffice. This does however work easily and perfectly with Microsoft Word 2010. We’re trying to move from Microsoft to Linux, but this is a deal breaker, since this basic functionality is an absolute necessity for our work.
Again, LibreOffice CAN NOT print envelopes correctly for our particular setup, and yet the Insert Envelope wizards indicates that it can. I guess all I can ask is when this very serious bug will be fixed, if ever?
Thanks!
