Envelopes Won't Print

I have downloaded and installed the latest HP AIO installer (HP
Photosmart 2610). I have downloaded the latest for Word 2004.

I can NOT print envelopes. I choose the correct envelope size in the
page set-up and the correct orientation. I go to tools and choose
envelopes, I paste the address from the document. I click print.

A new window opens in Word called "envelope 1" and it shows exactly the
envelope size, the correct typeface, and the address as required.

I click print and on the print preview it shows the envelope with
nothing on it. If I click the print on the menu bar the envelope just
runs through the printer with no print.

I think I have tried everything, usually resulting in my using pen and
ink on the outside of the envelope. What?!?!?!?!

In Word | Preferences | Print, make sure Drawings Objects is checked under
Include with Document.

The envelope feature puts the addresses in text boxes, which are in the
drawing layer, so they won't print if that box is not checked. Since Print
Preview shows nothing, this is likely the issue (a not uncommon problem).

Thanks to Daiya Mitchell my problem is solved. The Check Box was exactly why my envelope wouldn't print. Thanks AGAIN.
