I've never really got that to work on any printer.  There's a lot of
assumptions about how it ought to be done.  Most of us would feed an
envelope thin end into the printer, so it's got more to grab on as it
passes through, and want to print with rotated text.  Who rotates it?
The data sent to the printer, or the printer itself?  Does the printer
accept the actual size of the envelope, or do you pretend its A4 and
just use one edge?

Businesses often take the easy approach:  Buy windowed envelopes, and
print the addresses on the letter so it shows through the window.

I kinda get the impression the easiest approach is a separate label
printer, with a roll of sticky labels.
