Loading Envelopes

Important

• Do not use the following envelopes. They could jam in the printer or cause the printer to malfunction.

  • Envelopes with an embossed or treated surface
  • Envelopes with a double flap
  • Envelopes whose gummed flaps are already moistened and adhesive

1. Prepare envelopes.

   • Press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to flatten them.

     

   • If the envelopes are curled, hold the opposite corners and gently twist them in the opposite direction.

     
   • If the corner of the envelope flap is folded, flatten it.

   • Use a pen to press the leading edge in the inserting direction flat and sharpen the crease.

     

     The figures above show a side view of the leading edge of the envelope.

   Important

   • The envelopes may jam in the printer if they are not flat or the edges are not aligned. Make sure that no curl or puff exceeds 0.1 inch (3 mm).

2. Load envelopes.

   1. Open the paper support, and pull it out.

   2. Open the front cover gently.

   3. Pull out the paper output tray.

      

   4. Slide the paper guides (A) to open them, and load the paper in the center of the rear tray WITH THE PRINT SIDE FACING YOU.

      The folded flap of the envelope will be faced up on the left side.

      Up to 10 envelopes can be loaded at once.

   5. Slide the paper guides (A) to align them with both sides of the envelopes.

      Do not slide the paper guides too hard against the envelopes. The envelopes may not be fed properly.
