lexmark x125 prints blank envelopes word 2003
 

I have a lexmark x125 and it prints letters and labels fine, but won't
print envelopes. They run through like they're printing but it comes
out blank.

I downloaded the latest driver, ran the clean printer heads wizard,
I'm stumped any ideas?

Put a normal 8-1/2x11 sheet of paper in the printer instead of an envelope,
and see if anything is printed (and where) on the sheet.
You may be able to place the envelope accordingly, or adjust where the
printing gose in an application or the printer driver.

(Envelope printing from word and publisher has always been a little strange
for some of my present and past printers.)
Printer drivers suppled with windows seem to be the most suspect.

I tried putting in a normal peice of paper, and it came out blank too,
I got the latest driver from the manufacturer and still the same
problem.

I assume that you mean that when you tried to print an envelope (from MS
Word? WordPerfect? some other app?) and used a regular piece of paper,
the address didn't print on the paper.

Make sure that you've properly defined the envelope size (in Word, click
"Options" in the "Envelopes and Labels" dialog).

This doesn't sound like it's anything to do with the printer or the
printer driver. You earlier wrote that you have no problems printing
letters and labels, so the printer is, in fact, working.

It seems more likely that the problem is in your printing application.
Post your question in a group related to whatever application you are
using to try to print the envelopes.
