Loading envelopes and post cards 2
About envelopes 2
Use envelopes that weigh between 80 to
2
95 g/m
Some envelopes need margin settings to
be set in the application. Make sure you
do a test print first before printing many
envelopes.
DO NOT use any of the following types of
envelopes, as they will cause paper feed
problems:
• That are of a baggy construction.
• That are embossed (have raised writing
on them).
.
CAUTION
How to load envelopes and postcards2
a Before loading, press the corners and
sides of envelopes or post cards to
make them as flat as possible.
Note
If envelopes or post cards are ‘doublefeeding’, put one envelope or post card in
the paper tray at a time.
2
• That have clasps or staples.
• That are pre-printed on the inside.
Glue Double flap
Occasionally you may experience paper
feed problems caused by the thickness,
size and flap shape of the envelopes you
are using.

b
Put envelopes or post cards in the paper
tray with the address side down and the
leading edge (top of the envelopes) in

slide the paper side guides (1) and paper
length guide (2) to fit the size of the
envelopes or post cards.
If you have problems when printing on
envelopes, try the following suggestions:
2
a Make sure the flap is either to the side of
the envelope or to the back edge of the
envelope when printing.
b Adjust the size and margin in your
application.

Removing small printouts from the machine 2
When the machine ejects small paper onto
the paper tray you may not be able to reach
it. Make sure printing has finished, and then
pull the tray completely out of the machine.

Chapter 2
Acceptable paper and other print media
The print quality can be affected by the type
of paper you use in the machine.
To get the best print quality for the settings
you have chosen, always set the Paper Type
to match the type of paper you load.
You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated
paper), glossy paper, transparencies and
envelopes.
We recommend testing various paper types
before buying large quantities.
For best results, use Brother paper.
When you print on inkjet paper (coated
paper), transparencies and photo paper,
be sure to choose the correct print media
in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in
the Paper Type setting of the machine’s
menu. (See Paper Size and Type
on page 25.)
When you print on Brother Photo paper,
load one extra sheets of the same photo
paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has
been included in the paper package for
this purpose.
When you use transparencies or photo
paper, remove each sheet at once to
prevent smudging or paper jams.
Avoid touching the printed surface of the
paper immediately after printing; the
surface may not be completely dry and
may stain your fingers.
Recommended print media 2
2
To get the best print quality, we suggest using
Brother paper. (See table below.)
If Brother paper is not available in your
country, we recommend testing various
papers before purchasing large quantities.
We recommend using ‘3M Transparency
Film’ when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print media 2
Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat.
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of
photo paper. Load photo paper with the
shiny side facing down.
Avoid touching either side of
transparencies because they absorb
water and perspiration easily, and this
may cause decreased output quality.
Transparencies designed for laser
printers/copiers may stain your next
document. Use only transparencies
recommended for inkjet printing.

You can only print on both sides of the
paper with PC printing. See Printing for
Windows
on the CD-ROM.
