Envelopes

Caution

Envelopes

Guidelines

Buying and Storing Envelopes

■ Use only paper envelopes specified in "Supported Papers" on page 1-9. Successful

envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the envelopes. Use env e lo pe s ma de spe c ifically for laser printers.

■ It is recommended that you maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

■ Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid the effects of moisture and dryness

which can affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the envelopes to seal before or during printing.

■ Avoid padded envelopes; purchase envelopes that lie flat on a surface.

■ You may remove air “bubbles” from the envelopes before loading by setting a heavy book

on top of the envelopes.

Preparing to Print

Follow these guidelines to prevent wrinkling problems:

■ Use only Tray 1 (MPT) to print envelopes.

■ Print only on the front of the envelope.

■ Perform these steps when using an application that includes a tool for creating an envelope

document:

■ Select faceup.

■ Select the feed method with the image centered.

■ Clear Clockwise Rotation.

■ Load a maximum of 10 envelopes at a time. This printer is not designed to handle

high-capacity production envelope printing.

Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they can damage the printer. Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes is not covered under the Xerox warranty, service agreement, or Total Satisfaction Guarantee.

SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

This material has been ev aluated by Xerox Corp oration. The toxicity data noted belo w is based on test results of similar toners.

Oral LD50: >5 g/kg (rats), practically non-toxic Dermal LD50: > 5 g/kg (rabbits), practically non-toxic Inhalation LC50: > 2 mg/l (rats; 4 hour exposure), practically non-toxic Eye Irritation: Not an irritant Skin sensitization: Not a sensitizer Skin irritation: Not an irritant Human Patch: Non-irritating, non-sensitizing Mutagenicity: No mutagenicity detected in Ames assay Carcinogens: None present

Additional Information: The results obtained from a Xerox sponsored Chronic Toner Inhalation Study demonstrated no lung changes in rats for the lowest (1 mg/m3) exposure le vel (ie., the level most relevant to potential human exposure). A very slight degree of fibrosis was noted in 25% of the animals at the middle (4 mg/m3) exposure level, while a slight degree of fibrosis was noted in all the animals at the highest (16 mg/m3) exposure level. The findings are attributed to “lung overloading”, a generic response to excessive amounts of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged period. This study was conducted using a special test toner to comply with EPA testing protocol. The test toner was ten times more respirable than commercially available Xerox toner and would not be functionally suitable for Xerox equipment.
