BEFORE USING THE MACHINE►LOADING PAPER
Important points when using envelopes
• Do not print the rear surface (the side with adhesive) of the envelope. This may result in misfeeds or poor print quality.
• Restrictions apply to some types of envelo
pes. For more information, consult a qualified service technician.
• Some operating environments may ca
use creasing, smudging, misfeeds, poor toner fusing, or machine failure.
• Fold the flap of the envelope and m
ake a sharp crease at the fold. A misfeed may occur if the flap is up.
• Do not use the follow
ing envelopes:
• When placing multiple envelopes, they may not
be fed if the print surface not being flat, instead being fed on an
angle.
• Feeding of thick envelopes may not be possible.
• Feeding of envelopes with uneven
surfaces may not be possible.
• Those with a metal piece, a plastic h
ook or a ribbon hook
• Those with a string for closing
• Those with a window
• Those with a lining
• Those with an uneven surface, finished with titling or embos
s
• Lined envelopes and oth
er items that use adhesives or other composites for sealing may have this substance melt
because of heat from the fusing unit.
• Hand-made envelopes
• Those containing air inside
• Those damaged with a crease, fold mark or tear
• Envelopes for which the surface h
as deteriorated or deformed due to prolonged storage or moisture absorption
otherwise cannot be used.
• Items that have 4 or more sheets in the envelope to be adhered cann
ot be fed.
• Envelopes with the corner gluing position on the back not aligned with the corner edge cannot be used as it may
cause creasing.
• Print quality is not guaranteed in the a
rea 10 mm (13/32") around the edges of the envelope.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on
parts of envelopes where there is a large step-like change of thickness, such as on
four-layer parts or parts less than three layers.
• Print quality is not guaranteed on
envelopes having peel off flaps for sealing the envelopes.
Cautions when placing envelopes
• Removing curling
• Ensure these are flat, containing no air
• Ensure the four folded edges are press
ed flat (for items with flaps, three edges)
• Align on a flat surface
• Some envelopes may not be usable due to the shape of the flap or t
he type of envelope.
