	Thanks Tim.  

	Does it matter that this is F8 and close to EOL?  Am intending to move
to F10 before Christmas.  I'll file a bug today.  That bugzilla
classroom session will come in handy.  This current print job is small
(about 500) so I'll print pages and envelopes separately.  A couple of
the kids have finished school for the year so they can help with the
assembly and mailing.
