Notes
• The number of envelopes that can be printed in one minute is approximately half that of plain
paper.
• Paper can be loaded only up to the lower of the two paper limit marks of the tray.
• If printed envelopes come out badly creased, load the envelopes in the opposite direction. Also,
configure the printer driver to rotate the print object 180 degrees. For details about changing the
loading orientation, see the printer driver Help.
• Environmental factors can degrade the print quality on both recommended and non-recommended
envelopes.
• If envelopes are severely curled after printing, flatten them by bending them back against the curl.
• After printing, envelopes sometimes have creases along their long edges and toner smear on their
unprinted sides. Their print images might also be blurred. When printing large, black-solid areas,
striping can occur as a result of the envelopes overlapping.
• To correctly specify the length of an envelope whose flap opens along its short edge, be sure to
include the open flap when measuring.

• When loading OHP transparencies, take care not to load them upside
down. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• It is recommended to place one sheet at a time.
• Make sure to fan OHP transparencies every time before printing.
Leaving OHP transparencies loaded in the bypass tray may cause
them to stick together and result in a misfeed.
• If multiple OHP transparencies are fed at the same time, load them
one by one.
• When printing on OHP transparencies, remove the transparencies one
by one as they are output.
• When printing on OHP transparencies that have a print side, load
them with the print side over on the bypass tray. Not taking this
precaution may cause them to stick to the fusing unit and cause
misfeeds.
