Envelopes 2
The machine is designed to work well with
most envelopes. However, some envelopes
may have feed and print quality problems
because of the way they have been made.
Envelopes should have edges with straight,
well-creased folds. Envelopes should lie flat
and not be of baggy or flimsy construction.
Use only quality envelopes from a supplier
who understands that you will be using the
envelopes in a laser machine.
Envelopes can only be fed through the
manual feed slot.
We recommend that you print a test envelope
to make sure the print results are what you
want.
Types of envelopes to avoid 2
IMPORTANT
DO NOT use envelopes:
• that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or
an unusual shape
• that are extremely shiny or textured
• with clasps, staples, snaps or tie
strings
• with self-adhesive closures
• that are of a baggy construction
• that are not sharply creased
• that are embossed (raised writing)
• that were previously printed by a laser
or LED machine
• that are pre-printed on the inside
• that cannot be arranged neatly when
stacked
• that are made of paper that weighs
more than the paper weight
specifications for the machine
• with edges that are not straight or
consistently square

perforations

the figure below

If you use any of the types of envelopes
listed above, they may damage your
machine. This damage may not be
covered under any Brother warranty or
service agreement.
Occasionally you may experience paper
feed problems caused by the thickness,
size and flap shape of the envelopes you
are using.
