Envelopes

2

Most envelopes will be suitable for your 
machine. However, some envelopes will 
have feed and print-quality problems 
because of the way they have been made. A 
suitable envelope should have edges with 
straight, well-creased folds and the leading 
edge should not be thicker than two pieces of 
paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be 
of baggy or flimsy construction. You should 
buy quality envelopes from a supplier who 
understands that you will be using the 
envelopes in a laser machine.

Envelopes can only be fed from MP tray.

Before you put envelopes in the tray, check 
the following:

„

Envelopes should have a lengthwise 
sealing flap.

„

The sealing flaps should be folded crisply 
and correctly (irregularly cut or folded 
envelopes may cause paper jams).

„

Envelopes should consist of two layers of 
paper in the area circled in figure below.

Note

• Before you print envelopes, you must â€˜fan’ 

the stack to avoid paper jams and 
misfeeds.

• Before you print a lot of envelopes, test 

one to make sure that the print results are 
what you want.

• Envelope joints that are sealed by the 

manufacturer should be secure.

• DO NOT put different types of paper in the 

paper tray at the same time because it 
may cause paper jams or misfeeds.

• For proper printing, you must choose the 

same paper size from your software 
application as the paper in the tray.

• We recommend that you do not print 

within 0.6 in. (15 mm) of the edges of 
envelopes.

• See 

Acceptable paper and other 

media

on page 9.
