Printing onto envelopes

•Attempting to print on envelopes that have metal clasps, plastic snaps, string clo- sures, windows, linings, self-adhesive patches or synthetic materials may cause misfeeds, inadequate toner adherence or other trouble.

•Envelopes with embossed surfaces may cause the prints to become smudged.

•Use only envelopes which are flat and crisply folded. Curled or poorly formed envelopes may be poorly printed or may cause misfeeds.

•Print quality is not guaranteed in the area 10 mm or 13/32" from the edges of the enve- lope.

•Print quality is not guaranteed on parts of envelopes where there is a large step-like change of thickness, such as on three-layer or four-layer envelopes.

•Print quality is not guaranteed on envelopes having peel off flaps for sealing the enve- lopes.

Fusing unit pressure adjusting levers

In some cases damage to the envelopes, colour deviations, or smudging may occur even if envelopes within the specifications are used. This problem may be reduced by shifting the fusing unit pressure adjusting levers from their normal pressure position to the lower pressure position. Follow the procedure on page 1-28.)

NOTE: Be sure to return the lever to the normal position when you have finished feeding envelopes. If not, inadequate toner adherence, paper misfeeds or other trouble may occur.

1. Unlatch the Duplex Bypass/Inverter Unit and slide it to the left.

Unlatch the unit and gently move it away from the machine. If the machine is not equipped with a Duplex Bypass/Inverter Unit, open the side cover similarly.
