L OADING AND PRINTING ON ENVELOPES
Take note of the following points when loading an envelope:
> Use envelopes specifically made for laser printers.
> Do not use padded envelopes.
> Avoid printing over the area where the envelope seams meet.
> Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they can damage the printer.
> Ensure that the envelopes are stored in a cool and dry place and in their original
packaging. If not, heat and humidity can cause the envelopes to seal before or
during printing.
> Load a maximum stack height of 10mm (.4 in).
> Close the flaps of the envelopes and load them with the address side facing down.
> Remove excess air from envelopes before loading into the MPF.
> When using commercial flap envelopes with side seams (vs. diagonal seams), verify
that the side seams are cut all the way to the corner of the envelope.
1. Load the envelopes with the following considerations:
> Place C4 envelopes short-edge feed in the tray.
> Place Monarch, “10, C5 and DL envelopes long-edge feed in the tray.
> Place the side to be printed facedown.
> Place the envelope with the flap entering the printer first.
2. Slide the length guide and right width guide to the size of the loaded envelopes.
3. On the control panel, change the paper type to ENVELOPE.
