Envelopes
Various types and sizes of envelopes can be printed/copied on the Pro 16p using the alternate
paper tray.
Selecting Envelopes
The construction of envelopes is critical to printing performance and varies widely. Use high-
quality envelopes that are thin and sharply creased. Test a few envelopes before you purchase
large quantities.
Sizes: Minimum: 3 x 5" / 76 x 127mm
Maximum 8.5 x 14" / 216 x 356mm
Hints: Try to avoid printing over the area where the envelope's three back flaps meet.
Printing/Copying on an envelope:
1. Load one envelope at a time into the paper tray bypass or alternate paper tray.
Make sure that the leading edge of the envelope is straight and firmly creased.
For the best print quality, position margins no closer than .5"/ 13mm from the edges of
the envelope.
2. Slide the envelope into the bypass, flap side up and toward the rear.
Caution: The types of envelopes described below can severely damage your machine.
Never use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, exposed self-stick
adhesives, or other synthetic materials.
Never use envelopes with glues, inks, and adhesives that could discolor, scorch, or melt
when heat is applied.
Never try to print on both sides of an envelope. Jamming and damage can result.
Envelope Storage:
Proper storage of envelopes helps ensure successful feeding and printing.
Envelopes should be protected from moisture. Excessive moisture can cause wrinkles and
sealed flaps.
Envelopes should be stored flat. Air can become entrapped during printing and cause
creases to form. Flat storage helps prevent air entrapment.
