Envelopes 2
Most envelopes designed for laser printers
will be suitable for your machine. However,
some envelopes may have feed and print-
quality problems because of the way they
have been made. A suitable envelope should
have edges with straight, well-creased folds.
The envelope should lie flat and not be of
baggy or flimsy construction. You should buy
quality envelopes from a supplier who
understands that you will be using the
envelopes in a laser machine.
Envelopes can be fed from manual feed slot
one at a time. We recommend that you print
a test envelope to make sure the print results
are what you want before you print or
purchase a large quantity of envelopes.
