Printing Envelopes

Use the multipurpose feeder or the envelope cassette, following the procedures in chapter 2, the media specifications in chapter 7, and these guidelines when printing envelopes.

Do not use gummed envelopes or envelopes with adhesive tape.

Before loading the envelope, place it on a flat surface and press it smooth to make the corners and folds as flat as possible.

Feed envelopes print side up, short edge first.

Load envelopes flap open in the multipurpose feeder to provide the best print quality in the address area. Load envelopes flap closed in the envelope cassette.

Format envelopes in your application and run a plain paper test print to check flap alignment before running on more expensive envelope stock.

Use the Cool fuser temperature setting when printing envelopes.

Printing Labels

Always use the multipurpose feeder, following the procedure in chapter 2, the media specifications in chapter 7, and these guidelines when printing labels.

Do not overload the label stock. Label sheets compressed by the weight of the stack will expand as they feed into the printer which can cause a jam.

Make sure labels are not curled on the corners or coming loose from the backing sheet.

Use only labels that are rated as “laser safe.” Do not use label sheets with exposed adhesives (such as partially used sheets or sheets on which the adhesive has seeped through to the surface).

Use the Cool fuser temperature setting when printing labels.
