Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps

Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the device: 200°C (392°F). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.

Envelope storage

Proper storage of envelopes contributes to good print quality. You should store envelopes flat. If air is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing.

Card stock and heavy media

You can print many types of card stock from the input tray, including index cards and postcards. Some card stock performs better than others because its construction is better suited for feeding through a laser printer.

For optimum performance, do not use paper heavier than 157 g/m2 (42 lb). Paper that is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, jams, poor toner fusing, poor print quality, or excessive mechanical wear.

NOTE: You might be able to print on heavier paper if you do not fill the input tray to capacity and if you use paper with a smoothness rating of 100-180 Sheffield.

In either the software program or the printer driver, select Heavy (106 g/m2 to 163 g/m2; 28- to 43-lb bond) or Cardstock (135 g/m2 to 216 g/m2; 50- to 80-lb cover) as the media type, or print from a tray that is configured for heavy paper. Because this setting affects all print jobs, it is important to return the device back to its original settings after the job has printed.

Card stock construction

Smoothness: 135-157 g/m2 (36-42 lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of 100-180 Sheffield. 60-135 g/m2 (16-36 lb) card stock should have a smoothness rating of 100-250 Sheffield.

Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inch) of curl.

Condition: Make sure that the card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.

Card stock guidelines

Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inch) away from the edges.

Use tray 1 for card stock (135 g/m2 to 216 g/m2; 50- to 80-lb cover).
