My default printer is a Brother Laser. My special printer is a Canon Inkjet.
I printed a letter as normal and then tried to print an envelope from the
address on the letter to my Canon. I could find no simple way to make the
change of printers since the print setup did not exist in the envelope
dialog nor in the file menu at this point.

Click on the Add to Document button and then print it from there.

While I've got you on the hook, in which dialog would I find this option?

In the dialog that appears when you select the Envelopes tab in the
Envelopes and Labels dialog that you access from the Tools menu.

An alternative way to do this is to use an envelope template (there are
samples to download from my web site) and apply the method described at
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm to print documents (including
envelopes) to either of your printers.

this sounds like a great idea.
