Below is information on printing envelopes with your printer.

Envelopes Depending on the choice of envelopes, it is possible to expect variable levels of light wrinkling. Before buying large quantities of any print media, it is recommended that you try a sample first. See "Loading Print Media in the Multipurpose Feeder (MPF)" on page 211 or "Loading Print Media in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI)" on page 219 for instructions on loading an envelope. When printing on envelopes: • Use only high-quality envelopes that are designed for use in laser printers. • Set the print media source to MPF or PSI. Set the paper type to Envelope, and select the correct size of envelope from the printer driver. • For best performance, use envelopes made from 75 g/m2 (20 lb bond) paper. You can use up to 105 g/m2 (28 lb bond) weight for the envelope feeder as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. Envelopes with 100% cotton content must not exceed 90 g/m2 (24 lb bond) weight. • Use only freshly unpackaged, undamaged envelopes. • Use envelopes that can withstand temperatures of 205°C (401°F) without sealing, excessive curling, wrinkling, or releasing hazardous emissions. If you have any doubts about the envelopes you are considering, check with the envelope supplier. • Adjust the guide to fit the width of the envelopes. • To load envelope in MPF or PSI, the print side must be facing up. • See "Loading an Envelope in the Multipurpose Feeder (MPF)" on page 216 or "Loading an Envelope in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI)" on page 221 for instructions on loading an envelope. • Use one envelope size during a print job. • Ensure that the humidity is low because high humidity (more than 60%) and the high printing temperatures may seal the envelopes. • For best performance, do not use envelopes that: – Have excessive curl or twist – Are stuck together or damaged in any way – Contain windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, embossing – Use metal clasps, string ties, or metal folding bars – Have an interlocking design – Have postage stamps attached – Have nicked edges or bent corners.

You can place the originals in a long-edge feed direction or in a short-edge feed direction. The following illustration shows SEF and LEF.

Loading an Envelope in the Priority Sheet Inserter (PSI) NOTE: Be sure to fully insert the envelope until it stops. Otherwise, print media that is loaded on the MPF will be fed. NOTE: When you print on envelopes, be sure to specify the envelope setting on the printer driver. If not specified, the print image will be rotated 180 degrees. When Loading Envelope #10, DL, or Monarch Load envelopes with the side to be printed on facing up, the flap side facing down, and the flap turned to the right.
To prevent DL and Monarch from being wrinkled, they are recommended to be loaded with the print-side facing up, flap opened, and facing you.

When Loading C5 Load envelopes with the side to be printed on facing up, with the flap open.

CAUTION: Never use envelopes with windows, or coated linings. These lead to paper jams and can cause damage to the printer. NOTE: If you do not load envelopes in the PSI right after they have been removed from the packaging, they may bulge. To avoid jams, flatten them as shown below when loading them in the PSI.
NOTE: If envelopes are still not fed correctly, add some bending to the flap of the envelopes as shown in the following illustration. The amount of the bending shall be 5 mm (0.20 inches) or less.
