Which printer did you use to print your invite envelopes??

My stupid POS printer isn't printing my sample envelopes...it's just coming out crooked... I want to cry.... I need to buy a new printer today and do these.... which printer had no problem feeding the envelopes through?

I saved myself the time and had inkspun print the envelopes for my invites - the best decision I made! And they are so cheap - I think it's like 39 cents an envelope??? maybe less....check out inkspun.com

I had MAJOR issues printer issues - I have a really good professional HP laser jet at my office and it wouldn't melt the toner on, so I took it to my Dad, who WORKS for Lexmark and has their top of the line printer and it couldn't do it either. My Epson (which was an ink jet) at home wasn't strong enough to pull the envelopes through and my FH's work ink jet wouldn't pull them through either.... I wound up having to have my invitation company do them for me. I know some girls used inkspun without problems, but too many recent brides had problems for me to consider him.

I wouldn't consider Inkspun after the recent fiasco that the 06 bride had with placecards and losing the order....



Did anyone have success printing at home?

I have a HP printer, its the copier, printer scanner all in one. I printed my addresses for my e-party with them and they smudged
At work worked a lot better we have a HP laser jet 1320tn. It printed them clearly and had no problem pullin the envelopes through and it dried almost instantly.

I did a couple inner envelopes yesterday, we have a Dell all-in-one photo printer. One got cut off in the middle.

I've learned, after doing my save the date envelopes, it's better to do it one envelope at a time.

we bought a brand new hp printer for our invites and it feeds the envelops through crooked. it's not major - i only notice it on the return address b/c it's so close to the edge - but enough to annoy the crapola outta me. still, we didn't want to spend $$ to have them professionally done after shelling out $$ for the printer so we decided to just go with it.
