Envelopes
Many printers support envelope printing in a limited fashion.  A
typical PostScript printer feeds envelopes from a manual feed or
envelope feed tray with the short edge of the envelope
positioned at either the center or side edge of the tray.
By contrast, your printer feeds envelopes long edge at the side
of the multi-sheet bypass tray (tray 5).  This lets you feed the
envelope with the sealing edge extended to avoid crinkling and
heat treatment of the adhesive, which can sometimes seal the
envelope.  
You perform envelope feeding by placing the envelope on tray 5
when prompted at the printer control panel (assuming that Paper
Loading Pause is enabled).
Software applications supported for envelope printing
Your printer has been tested to work with envelopes generated
from the following programs:
WordPerfect 2.1
Microsoft Word 5.0
Xerox does not guarantee envelope printing with future releases
of these applications.  Some applications may require using the
Xerox printer page description (PPD) file.
How to set up a file for envelope printing
Because the your printer handles envelopes differently from
other printers, use the envelope sample or formats indicated in
the following sections.  These examples were developed using
standard Helvetica 10- or 12-point fonts.

Note:  Avoid applications that include samples for center-fed or
edge-fed envelopes, or a letter-envelope combination macro.
