Selecting Print Media

Follow these guidelines when selecting envelopes and transparencies:

nFor paper guidelines, see Chapter 5.

■Envelopes

•Use standard envelopes with diagonal seams and flaps.

•To prevent jams in the multi-purpose tray, do not use the following:

–Envelopes with windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, and double flaps

–Envelopes made with special coated paper or deeply embossed paper

–Envelopes with peel-off sealing strips

–Envelopes with letters enclosed

•You may be able to load other size envelopes than those listed on the previous page. However, Canon cannot guarantee consistent performance on these.

nWhen printing on envelopes, be sure to use face-up delivery (1 p. 5-4).

■Transparencies

•Use only special laser printer transparencies.

n• When printing on transparencies, be sure to use face-up delivery (1 p. 5-4).

•To prevent the transparency from curling, remove it as soon as it exits the FAX and place it on a flat surface to cool.
