Printing 101 - Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing - Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars - Have an interlocking design - Have postage stamps attached - Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position - Have bent corners - Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes • Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes. • Before loading the envelopes on the tray, flex and fan the envelopes to loosen them. Straighten the edges on a level surface. Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal the envelopes. Tips on using labels • From the scanner control panel, set the paper size, type, texture, and weight in the Paper menu to match the labels loaded in the tray. • Print samples on the labels being considered for use before buying large quantities. • For more information on label printing, characteristics, and design, see the Card Stock & Label Guide on the Lexmark Web site at http://support.lexmark.com. • Use labels designed specifically for laser printers. • Do not use labels with slick backing material. • Use full label sheets. Partial sheets may cause labels to peel off during printing, resulting in a jam. Partial sheets also contaminate the printer and the cartridge with adhesive, and could void the printer and toner cartridge warranties. • Do not use labels with exposed adhesive. Tips on using letterhead • Use letterhead designed specifically for laser printers. • Print samples on the letterhead being considered for use before buying large quantities. • Before loading letterhead, flex and fan the sheets to prevent them from sticking together. • Page orientation is important when printing on letterhead.
