Envelopes 1
Most envelopes can be used with your machine. 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.
We recommend that you print a test envelope to make sure the print results are what you want.
