Printing Envelopes
Envelopes can be printed from all trays. 
Guidelines
■Use only paper envelopes specified in the Supported Paper Sizes and Weights table. 
Successful envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the 
envelopes. Use envelopes made specifically 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. 
■Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading by setting a heavy book on top of 
the envelopes.
■If wrinkling or embossing problems occur, use a different brand of envelopes made 
specifically for laser printers. This may help minimize these types of problems.
Caution: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. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is 
available in the United States and Canada. Coverage may vary outside these areas, please 
contact your local representative for details.
