How can I print envelopes?
Use the multi-purpose tray to print envelopes.
Close the envelope flaps before feeding and load as illustrated below. You can use Com-10, Monarch, C5 and DL envelopes.
-
Do not use envelopes with tape seals. Printing on some types of pre-glued envelopes may not be possible, depending on the condition of the adhesive. We recommend using envelopes designed for laser printers.
-
Do not use envelopes larger than 90 mm (3.5 in.) wide and 140 mm (5.5 in.) long.
-
Using poor-quality envelopes can cause creasing and deteriorate print quality.
Most envelopes will perform acceptably on your printer. However, some envelopes will have feeding and print quality problems because of their construction. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well creased folds and should not have more than two thicknesses of paper along the leading edge. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction. Purchase quality envelopes only from a supplier who understands that the envelopes will be used in a laser printer. All envelopes should be tested prior to use to ensure desirable print results.
The following is an example of how to print the address on an envelope.
-
Adjust the paper guide to the mark for the size of envelope you are about to use.
-
Make sure the flap is closed, load the envelope with the side to be printed on facing down, and the flap facing right.
-
Start printing from your program after putting the envelope in the printer.
