Envelope Construction

Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following components:

!Weight: See page 395 for supported envelope weight.

!Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 0.25 inch (6 mm) curl and should not contain air. (Envelopes that trap air may cause problems.)

!Condition: Make sure envelopes are not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.

!Sizes in Tray 1: See page 392 for supported paper sizes.

!Sizes in the optional envelope feeder: See page 395 for supported envelope sizes.
