Media and tray To print an envelope, place it as shown in the following figure. • Do not use stamped envelopes. • Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, selfadhesive seals, or other synthetic materials. • Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes. • Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the envelope. 1 2 If envelopes are printed out with wrinkles, crease, or black bold lines, open the rear cover and try printing again. Keep the rear cover opened during printing. If you select Envelope from the Printing Preferences window, but the printed images get easily erased, select Thick Envelope and try printing again. However, this might cause some noise when printing. • When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors: - Weight: should not exceed 90 g/m2 otherwise; jams may occur. - Construction: should lie flat with less than 6 mm curl and should not contain air. - Condition: should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged. - Temperature: should resist the heat and pressure of the machine during operation. • Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well-creased folds. 1 Acceptable 2 Unacceptable • Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine's fusing temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C (338 °F)). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser. • For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the edges of the envelope. • Avoid printing over the area where the envelope's seams meet. 2.
