Envelope Guidelines for DocuMatch

Envelope Style and Type for DocuMatch
For optimum DocuMatch performance, we recommend you
use high quality, web-fed, side seam envelopes designed for
automatic insertion. You may also use commercial style or
executive style, but side seam is preferable.
Make sure the flap and throat dimensions comply with our
published specifications (see Figure 4-3 on page 4-11).
For optimum DocuMatch performance, printed (non-window)
envelopes work best. If you are using window envelopes,
make sure they comply with our DocuMatch window envelope
requirements (see Figure 4-2 on page 4-7 and Table 4-2 on
page 4-12).
Envelope Size and Weight for DocuMatch
The envelope printer handles only #10 size envelopes
(9-1/2 x 4-1/8 in. ± 1/16 in.). Envelopes with a basis weight of
24 pounds work best, but you can use 28-pound envelopes
also. Lighter weight envelopes tend to cause problems in the
envelope transport.
Refer to Figure 4-3 on the following page for an illustration of
the DocuMatch specifications for #10 envelope dimensions.
