Kathryn, There are a number of questions I would ask to resolve this. I the LJ5 driver still installed on the Upstairs machine and if it is is it still the default printer? Does the document (envelope) specify the default printer or was is formatted for the LJ5 specifically? I believe that you problem has little to do with the application but more likely the printer driver setup between the two computers. Paul O. Baumann RTC Technologies, Inc.
