This section gives you various details about and recommendations concerning envelopes.
Misfeeds might occur depending on the length and shape of the flaps.
Do not use window envelopes.
When loading envelopes in tray 1 or the bypass tray, open the right cover, and then push down the envelope lever.
Be sure to close their flaps and set them in the orientation.

When loading envelopes on the bypass tray, place them address side facing down. When loading envelopes in tray 1, place them address side facing up.
Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
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 machine) by running a pencil or ruler across them.
Fan the envelopes before loading them to separate them and prevent the glue on them from causing them to stick together.
Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or print poorly.
Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to check print quality.
High temperature and high humidity conditions can reduce print quality and cause envelopes to become creased.
