HP 5M manual Envelope Storage, Envelope Margins

C a u t i o n	Never use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings,
	self-stick adhesives, or other synthetic materials. These items can
	severely damage your printer.
	Never try to print on both sides of an envelope. Jamming and printer
	damage can result.
	Before you load envelopes in Tray 1, check to make sure they are
	regular in shape and undamaged. Also, check to see that the envelopes
	are not stuck together.

Envelope Storage

Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to quality printing:

•Envelopes should be stored in an air-tight container, protecting the envelopes from moisture.

•Envelopes should be kept flat when being stored. Loose envelopes may trap air inside. This could create an air bubble which would wrinkle the envelope during printing.

The following table gives typical address margins for a Commercial #10 or DL envelope. For envelopes of other sizes, adjust the margin settings as desired.

		Type of Address	Top Margin	Left Margin
		Return Address	0.6 in (15 mm)	0.6 in	(15 mm)
		Delivery Address	2 in (51 mm)	3.5 in	(89 mm)
	For best print quality, position margins no closer than .5 inch (13 mm)
N o t e
	from the edges of the envelope.

Try to avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s three back flaps meet.
