did you go to the menu in the printer and set it in yhe paper options to envelope? You MUST also set it in the PC.

Go to

1- file

5-Device settings

6- set tray 1  to envelope

Had this same problem. Went to Microsoft Office site and downloaded Service Pack 3 for Word 2000 and Security update #KB934392 and the printer started printing on the correct side again.

If you are printing from MS Word - go into Tools - Letters and Mailings - Labels and Envelopes, Envelopes Tab, Options, and turn off the clockwise rotation check box. Seems to work for me.

SOURCE: Printer Error When Printing Envelopes

I had the same problem with my 7260 and I finally changed the paper type from automatic to plain paper. Go to either Properties or Preferences in your printer set up window. Somehow this turns off some sort of sensor. It might work for you, too. To the person who is using the Hallmark program, that is where I first encountered the problem, I then tried to print an envelope from Word and the same error message came up. I found this solution online from someone using a three in one printer/fax/copier so I tried it and it worked for me, too! I hope this helps......

See this notice about the flashing light. Then see this article, particularly step 4. You may need to clear the print queue & restart the print spooler. Make sure you reboot your system. If that doesn't correct the issue, try a power reset as described here before uninstalling or reinstalling the printer software.
The printer uses your system memory to print from, and communication glitches do occur.
Good luck.

I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.
