When copying on a small-sized envelope, align the flap to the paper guide on the left.
Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.
To get better print quality, it is recommended that you set the right, left, top, and bottom print margin, to at least 15 mm (0.6 inches) each.
You cannot print envelopes with the Duplex function.
Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
Before loading envelopes, check they are rectangular in shape.
