Beleive it has nothing to do with the front or the back of the envelope, rather
is dependent on the stacking and feed of envelopes of any particular printer
(something LO will not have any sense of).  It is the path that a properly
loaded  envelope takes through the feed (from printer's tray or feeder).

It will always print on the front of the envelope unless you don't load it
correctly and invert the stack from the direction indicated on the printer.

You'll see similar "guides" on the document feeders for MFP and copiers with
scanners as to which direction to load.

This is what you have to do with LO to orient the address onto the envelop as
the top left of the envelope shifts with from top or from bottom feed.
