  • Check the envelopes are not damp.

  • Do not load envelopes above the limit mark. For the number of envelopes that you can set on the bypass tray, see “Recommended Paper Sizes and Types”, About This Machine.

  • 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 inch) each.

  • You cannot print envelopes with the Duplex function.

  • Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.

  • Before loading envelopes, flatten leading edges (the side going into the machine) by pressing a pencil or ruler across them.

  • Before loading envelopes, check they are rectangular in shape.
