How do I automaticaly choose a laserjet output bin in Word? I would like
envelopes to come out the back bin.

I don't think Word provides any way to choose the output bin--only the input
tray.

As Suzanne says this may not be possible, but you could investigate the use
of PRINT fields to send the PCL or Postscript commands directly to the
printer from the document.
