Loading Envelopes

Envelopes must be fed from the Rear Tray. Use either European DL or US Comm. Env. #10-sized envelope.

Important

zDo not use the following envelopes:

Envelopes with a double flap (or sticker flaps)

Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface

Envelopes with pressure seals

Envelopes whose gummed flaps are already moistened and adhesive

zSelect either DL Env. or Comm. Env. #10 in the printer driver according to the envelope size you are using. If you do not, the address will be printed in the wrong direction.

zIn Windows, print guidance will be displayed when envelopes are printed. To prevent display of print guidance, refer to “Printing Envelopes” in the PC Printing Guide on-screen manual.

1Prepare the envelopes.

z Press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to flatten them.

z If the envelopes are curled, hold the opposite corners and gently twist them in the opposite direction.

z If the flap of an envelope is curled, flatten it.

z If the leading edge of an envelope is puffed up or curled, use a pen to press the envelope flat and sharpen the crease.

Press the envelope flat, working from the middle to the edge.

* The above illustrations show a side view of the leading edge of the envelope.

Important

The envelopes may jam in the printer if they are not flat or the edges are not aligned. Make sure that no curl or puff exceeds 0.1 inches / 3 mm.
