Addresses on envelopes - can it be done?

We use a Dymo twin printer - one side for labels and one side for receipts. It works great for printing labels to place on envelopes. However, is it possible to print directly to an envelope with the patient's address from OD? Thanks.

To the best of my knowledge that is not currently a feature of Open Dental. You can vote for feature request #203 to move this up the priority list.

Sure it is. Just make a sheet for it. We do it all the time.

Use the Consent Form one.

Why does the consent form work better than a custom sheet or something else?

Honestly, I don't remember why I eventually settled upon consent form as the sheet format. For whatever reason, it does work very well.
