Loading Envelopes

This section explains various details about and recommendations concerning envelopes.

Specifications of Envelopes

• Some of this machine's internal components get very hot. For this reason, take care when
removing misfed paper. Not doing so could result in burns.
• When using the envelope lever, take care not to trap or injure your fingers.
• Do not use window envelopes.
• Envelopes, especially those with glue on their flaps, may stick together. Fan the envelopes to
separate them before loading. If the envelopes still stick together, load them one by one. For the
envelope types that can be used with this printer, see page 28 "Paper Size Specifications" and
page 32 "Paper Type Specifications".
• Misfeeds might occur depending on the length and shape of the flaps.
• When loading envelopes with their flaps open, specify a custom size. You can print with a standard
envelope size setting only when printing on envelopes with their flaps closed. However, be sure to
open the flaps when loading envelopes into Tray 1 with their flaps toward the back of the printer.
• Before loading envelopes, press down on them to remove any air from inside, flattening out all four
edges. If they are bent or curled, flattening their leading edges (the edge going into the printer) by
running a pencil or ruler across them.
Using the envelope lever
Before loading envelopes, be sure to lower the envelope lever.
