Envelope storage and construction Envelope storage Proper storage of envelopes helps contribute to print quality. Envelopes should be stored flat. If air is trapped in an envelope and creates an air bubble, then the envelope might wrinkle during printing. For more information, see Printing on envelopes. Envelope construction Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the following components: ● Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb) or jamming might occur. ● Construction: Before printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inch) curl, and should not contain air. ● Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged. ● Temperature: Use envelopes that are compatible with the heat and pressure of the printer. This printer's fusing temperature is 210° C (410° F). ● Size: Use only envelopes that are within the following size ranges. Tray Tray 1 or Tray 2 Minimum 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches) Maximum 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches) Envelopes with double side-seams Double side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope rather than diagonal seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle. Be sure the seam extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as illustrated below. 14 Chapter 1 Printer basics ENWW
