Rena Envelope Imager XT 3.0 - Manual (Page 39)

SECTION 3
OPERATING THE PRINTER
Printing from Microsoft Word
If you are not using a specific program designed for mailing applications it is possible to print your mail pieces
using Microsoft Word. This section will cover how to layout a piece and to print from Microsoft Word.
To begin open a new page and turn on the tool bar for Mail
Merge. Under Print, select the Address Printer 6 as the default
printer. Go to Page Setup in the File menu. Set all of the
margins to “0”.
NOTE: The printer must be selected before you do the
setup so that the setting will be registered.
Next, select the Page Size tab and Custom Page. The size of
the layout should be 3-inches high by the length of the piece
you are intending to print. In our example, we have selected
the width of a # 10 envelope, 9.5-inches. The orientation of the
piece is always Portrait. The effective printing area of the
Envelope Imager XT 3.0/XT 4.0 is 3-inches by 15-inches.
When you have completed this step click OK.
The next step is to create a text box so that you can position the address the proper distance from the lead edge of the
piece. Once the page layout is set, you might want to save it as a template for use later.
When you have completed the steps above the layout should look like the one below.
NOTE: When setting up a layout for the Envelope Imager XT 3.0/XT 4.0, be aware that the printheads are aligned
in two banks and these banks can be aligned so that you can print in a 3” or 4” wide spread over the width of the
media. Head 1 is on one rail and opposite it is heads 5 and 6. There is a 1-3/4” gap between these heads. On the
second rail is Heads 2,3 and 4 attached together. If you are using a XT 4.0 a second two heads 7 and 8 are arranged
opposite to these heads. There is a 1-3/4” gap between heads 2,3 and 4 and heads 7 and 8. Head 1 can be combined
