We have both Brother (b/w) and HP (color) laser printers in our house, both 
perhaps 5 years old.  The Brother printer is not very convenient for printing 
envelopes, but at least it does them.  I have never (never) been able to get 
the HP printer to print single envelopes, despite following the user manual 
instructions to the letter.

Also, we have refrained from doing software updates for the HP because that 
supposedly would trigger their lock-down system for preventing us from using 
non-HP printer cartridges.

Maybe HP has gotten better and nicer to users.
