Envelope Enhance

Use this setting to disable the optional envelope conditioner hardware when printing envelopes. This hardware significantly lessens the wrinkling or creasing of some envelopes.

Note: When printing envelopes a bubble may form between the envelope layers. When the bubble reaches the end of the envelope during the fusing process, a wrinkle or crease forms. To prevent this situation, pressure on a roller in the fuser is released periodically. This is envelope conditioning.
