Loading Envelopes

The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating the "hot surface". Otherwise, an injury might occur.

Some of this machine's internal components get very hot. For this reason, take care when removing misfed paper. Not doing so could result in burns.

Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.
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.
When loading a low number of sheets, be sure not to squeeze the side paper guides and end guide in too tightly. If the paper bows, it might not feed in properly.
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.
To get better print quality, it is recommended that you set the leading-edge print margin to at least 15 mm (0.6 inches) and the other margins to at least 10 mm (0.4 inches) each.
High temperature and high humidity conditions can reduce print quality and cause envelopes to become creased.
