2. Loading Paper
Loading orientation for envelopes
The method for loading envelopes varies depending on the orientation of the envelopes. Be sure to
load envelopes with the correct orientation.
Orientation
Envelopes
When loading envelopes, use both the control panel and the printer driver to select "Envelope" for
the paper type and specify the thickness of the envelopes. For details, see page 53 "Printing on
Envelopes with Windows (PCL 6/PostScript 3)", page 53 "Printing on Envelopes with Windows
(PCL 5c)", or page 54 "Printing on Envelopes with OS X".
Recommended envelopes
For details about recommended envelopes, contact your local dealer.
The size of envelopes that you can load depends on the tray in which you load them. For details,
see page 34 "Paper Size Specifications".
• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
• The duplex function cannot be used with envelopes.
• Straighten any curls within 5 mm (0.2 inch) upward and 0 mm (0 inches) downward on the tray
before loading.
• To achieve better output quality, it is recommended that you set the right, left, top, and bottom print
margin to at least 15 mm (0.6 inches) each.
• The output quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have differing thicknesses.
Print one or two envelopes to check the print quality.
• When printing onto envelopes, the print speed is slower than usual.
• Flatten out prints if they are creased or curled.
• Check that the envelopes are not damp.
