Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.

Envelope Storage

Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality. Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, then the envelope may wrinkle during printing.

See “Printing on Envelopes” on page 35.
