Envelope Margins

The following gives typical address margins for a commercial #10 or DL envelope.
NOTES
:
• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm (0.6 in.) from the
edges of the envelope.
• 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.
Labels
CAUTION
:
• To avoid damaging the machine, use only labels recommended for laser printers.
• To prevent serious jams, always use the manual feeder to print labels and always use
the rear output tray.
• Never print on the same sheet of labels more than once and never print on a partial
sheet of labels.
When selecting labels, consider the quality of each component:
• Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 180°C (356°F), the
machine’s fusing temperature.
• Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can
peel off sheets with spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
• Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13mm (5in.) of curl in
any direction.
• Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles or other indications of
separation.
