How To

Loading Envelopes

Follow the steps below to load envelopes into the printer.

Lower the output tray and slide out the extension.

Set the adjust lever to the position.

Note:

Return the adjust lever to the standard position after printing envelopes. To avoid gaps, always return the adjust lever to the position before printing on other media.

When the adjust lever is in the position, make sure that the High Speed check box in the printer driver's Advanced dialog box is cleared. To clear this check box, you may also need to change the Print Quality setting.

Slide the left edge guide so that the distance between the edge guides is slightly wider than the width of your envelope.

Load envelopes short edge first with the flap side left, as shown in the illustration.

You can load up to 10 envelopes at a time in the sheet feeder.

Note:

The folding quality and thickness of envelopes vary widely. If the total thickness of the stack of envelopes exceeds 10 mm, press each envelope in the stack flat before loading. If print quality declines when a stack of envelopes is loaded, load one envelope at a time.

Do not use envelopes that are curled or folded.

Flatten the envelope flaps before loading.

Avoid using envelopes that are too thin as they may curl during printing.
