[AccessD] 2nd request - Printing envelopes via 2 printers.

Situation: .mdb is on K drive which is accessable from two computers (IOW, K drive is server). No problems in the past when there was a LaserJet 5 hooked up to both computers. By that I mean if we were "downstairs", printing would print on the downstairs LJ5, and "upstairs" would print on the upstairs LJ5.
In both cases, the envelope was put in the tray over on the left side.

Now, upstairs has new printer (LJ3052) and the envelope goes in center instead of left side. Access does not automatically adjust - the "to"
address is printing at top of the envelope and the "from" address is not there at all. If I put paper in the tray that the envelope pulls from, it shows that it's printing as if it were pulling from the left.

So, I tried putting the envelope over to the left and it pulls it through, but doesn't print, and gives me an error message that there was no paper pickup and to check that the paper was loaded correctly, etc.

Does this mean that I have to design additional reports for all envelopes that will be printed upstairs, designing for this specific printer?

Assuming you give me suggestions, unless they are within next 45 minutes, I won't be able to try them til Monday when I'm back here at work.
