Printing on Envelopes

Loading Envelopes

This section gives you various details about and recommendations concerning envelopes.

• Do not use window envelopes.
• Fan the envelopes before loading them to separate them and prevent the glue on them from

causing them to stick together. If fanning does not prevent them sticking together, load them one by
one. Note that some types of envelopes cannot be used with this printer.

• Misfeeds might occur depending on the length and shape of the flaps.
• Only envelopes that are at least 148 mm (5.9 inches) wide and whose flaps are open can be

loaded in the orientation.

• When loading envelopes in the orientation, load them with flaps fully open. Otherwise, they

might not feed into the printer.

• Before loading envelopes, press down on them to remove any air from inside, flatten out all four

edges. If they are bent or curled, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the printer) by
running a pencil or ruler across them.

The method for loading envelopes varies depending on the orientation of the envelopes. Be sure to load
envelopes with the correct orientation.
