Envelopes printing every second one upside down from Word mail merge. Help!!! After spending three hours last night getting my data accessible on mail merge (Excel to Word), now when I try to print it, it prints every second envelope upside down. I have turned off double-sided and collated but it still happens. I can't select odd or even pages only because of the stupid merge issue. I tried asking Microsoft help but they are absolutely USELESS!!! It took three people to fix my mail merge problem last night!

Envelopes print sideways and not on envelope I'm struggling to print on envelopes (regular letter size). In Pages (v10.3.9) I choose New Document and then select an envelope template (for example I chose Informal Envelope). For this example, I'll just leave the generic sample return address and recipient address. So it looks like this: Then I choose File -> Print... And I get this: As shown above, I select the correct printer, and confirmed that the media will feed from the printer's multi-purpose tray (the only way to feed envelopes) and that the media type is set to Envelope. An envelope is inserted into the printer's multi-purpose tray (manual feed tray) in the correct orientation as shown on the printer's feed-tray for envelopes. When I send it to the printer, this is what I get: I've tried going into Document and then in the Document tab I have tried changing the Page Orientation but that doesn't help. I've also tried using File -> Page Setup... to set the orientation, which also doesn't help. I have not tried burning candles while sacrificing a chicken ... but am open to suggestions. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

First guess would be that you've recently updated/upgraded Pages, and/or your iMac's Operating System, and tht this has broken the Printer Driver software you have installed.

Visit the website of the printer manufacturer, and look for driver software matched with your current version of OS X or macOS.
