Printing on Special Media
Printing on Envelopes
Envelopes can be printed from Tray 5 (Bypass Tray) or from the optiona\
l envelope tray in the Tray 1 position.
Guidelines
Successful envelope printing is dependent on the quality and constructio\
n of the envelopes. Try another 
envelope brand if the desired results are not achieved.
Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Store unused envelopes in their original packaging to avoid the excess m\
oisture or dryness which can affect 
print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the enve\
lopes to seal before or during 
printing.
Do not use padded envelopes.
