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.
62
• To correctly specify the length of an envelope whose flap opens along its short edge, be sure to include the open flap when measuring.

Loading Paper
• The inside of this machine becomes very hot. Do not touch parts labelled " " (indicating a hot surface).
• Before printing on envelopes, make sure to lower the levers on the printer rear, inside the rear cover, to avoid envelopes coming out creased. Also, pull up the levers back to their original positions after printing. Leaving the levers lowered can cause print quality problems when printing on paper other than envelopes.
• Avoid using self-adhesive envelopes. They may cause printer malfunctions.
• Check there is no air in the envelopes before loading.
• Envelopes whose flaps are open must be printed with the flaps open, and envelopes whose flaps are closed must be printed with the flaps closed.
• Load only one size and type of envelope at a time.
• Before loading envelopes, flatten their leading edges (the edge going into the printer) by running a pencil or ruler across them.
• Some kinds of envelope might cause misfeeds, wrinkles or print poorly.
• Print quality on envelopes may be uneven if parts of an envelope have different thicknesses. Print one or two envelopes to check print quality.
• In a hot and humid environment, the envelope might be output creased or improper printing quality.
• After loading envelopes in the tray, specify the paper type and size using the control panel to avoid printing problems. This printer does not detect the paper size automatically.
