Envelopes

This section gives you various details about and recommendations concerning envelopes.
• Do not use window envelopes.
• Fan the envelopes before loading them to separate them and prevent the glue on them from
causing them to stick together. If fanning does not prevent them sticking together, load them one by
one. Note that some types of envelopes cannot be used with this machine.
• Misfeeds might occur depending on the length and shape of the flaps.
• Before loading envelopes, press down on them to remove any air from inside, flatten out all four
edges. If they are bent or curled, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the machine) by
running a pencil or ruler across them.
