Envelopes - Epson LX-1170 User Manual

Envelopes

You can feed envelopes individually using the paper guide. Keep
the following tips in mind:
Before loading an envelope, set the paper thickness lever to
the proper position. See "Adjusting the paper-thickness
lever" on page 2-28.
To load an envelope, follow the steps in "Running the Self
Test" on page 1-12. Insert the wide edge of the envelope into
the printer first, printable-side down. When you insert the
envelope between the paper guides, push it firmly and hold
it until it feeds into the printer.
Use envelopes only under normal temperature and humidity
conditions.
Make sure the printing stays entirely within the printable
area.
The print head must not go past the left or right edge of the
envelope or other thick paper. (See "Printer Specifications" on
page A-4 for specifications.) It's a good idea to print a test
sample using a normal single sheet of paper before you print
on envelopes.
