Printing with Stamps.com and Vista

I am running Vista Home Premium and can print with everything except Stamps.com Internet Postage. When I use my HP Color Inkjet Business Printer cp1700 I gat "Processinbg Job" in the LCD display on the printer, but nothing ever prints. So, I purchased a new printer, an HP Photosmart D7360. Whre I try to print an envelope with is I get the message " Paper Size or Type Mismatch". If I change the paper size and type to #10 envelope it prints and addresses and postage half size in the middle of the envelope.

Anyone else have problems with Stamps.com ? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am using stamps.com with Vista without problem but I am printing either to a USB Dymo Turbo 330 label printer or an Epson R220 on a remote XP box. There is a new version of stamps.com out so make sure you have the latest version, same thing for the Dymo label printer, The error message that you are getting sounds like a printer driver problem. Have you checked to make sure that your new printer is Vista compatible?

I had the same problem running Windows Vista Ultimate. Here's what I
did. This should work on any short edge printer.

Select tools
Configure Printer
Next
Select #10
Yes
Next
When you see the picture of the Short Edge and Long Edge, Press
Ctrl+Shift together and then left click on the short edge icon. You
should get a drop down menu.
Select L90
Click OK
Now, follow the rest of the prompts and your envelope should print
fine.

Hope this helps.

Changing to L90 did not work for me. Still says paper mismatch on #10
envelope. Any more suggestions??
