Printing Envelopes

1. Pull out the rear exit extender until it locks and lift out
the support bar. Pull down the manual feed tray and adjust
the paper guides.
2. Insert the envelope, flap down and to the left, until the
printer grips it.
3. Set envelope size and landscape orientation in your
software, then issue the print command.

Choosing Envelopes

• Always use rear output.
• No windows or metal clasps.
• Media no heavier than 28 lbs.
• Smooth even surface.
• No self-sealing flaps.
• Seams down the sides, not across the middle.
• Squared-off flaps that do not cover the print area.

Printing Transparencies

Select and print transparencies using the MANUAL FEED
option under MEDIA TYPE in MENU 1. Select TRANSPR to
ensure the correct fusing temperature is set. Damage may
occur to your transparencies if an incorrect setting is used.

Feeding Heavyweight Paper or Cardstock

The normal paper path from a main paper tray to the top
output stack involves two complete U-turns. This may
sometimes cause very heavyweight paper or cardstock to jam
or misfeed.
Use the front tray to feed this type of paper and the rear paper
exit to collect your printed output. This gives a nearly straight
paper path through the machine, and may prove more reliable
in this type of application.

Print Quality Adjustments for Different Paper

The process used to fuse (fix) the printed image to the paper
involves a mixture of pressure and heat. Too much heat will
cause lightweight paper to crease or curl, while too little heat
will cause the image not to fuse fully into heavyweight paper.
Use the MEDIA TYPE setting in MENU 1 to adjust for different
thicknesses of paper.
