You can load up to 10 envelopes (80 to 95 g/m2, 20 to 24 lb. Bond) in the bypass tray at the same time, without compressing them. Check the envelopes are not damp, and the top of the stack is not higher than the limit mark on the side guide.
When loading envelopes, be sure to unfold the flaps and position them opposite to the paper feed direction.
Load envelope type (3) (162 229 mm / C5) envelopes flap down, flap fold against the side guide.
Depending on the envelope type, specify an appropriate print image rotation using the printer driver. For envelope types type (1), (2) and (3), rotate by specify 180 degrees.
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 in.) each.
You cannot print envelopes with duplex function.
Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
