This isn't a solution, but have you tried printing the envelope page to PDF, then printing that with a PDF viewer?
As far as I know Libreoffice does respect the page definition for PDF creation, then you can work around the lack of proper integration of the LO print dialogs to debian outside of LibreOffice... I do this type of thing for custom pages all the time, but I'm still on LO6.3 running on Ubuntu 18.04. I have a portable instance of 7.0.3 but I didn't fully test my suggestion, only that the print dialog still looks similar to that in 6.3.
