58 Chapter 3 Printing ENWW
To print on envelopes from a program
1 Load envelopes into Tray 1.
2 In your program or in the printer driver, select Tray 1, as the source.
3 Set the appropriate envelope size and type. For envelope specifications, see Media
specifications.
4 If your program does not automatically format for an envelope, specify “Portrait” for page
orientation.
CAUTION To avoid a jam, do not remove or insert an envelope after you begin printing.
5 Set margins to within 15 mm (0.6 inch) from the edge of the envelope. For best print quality,
set margins for a return and mailing address (typical address margins for a Commercial #10
or DL envelope are offered). Avoid printing over the area where the three back flaps meet on
the back of an envelope.
6 To print by type and size of paper, see Specifying paper to print on.
7 Select the upper left bin as the output location.
8 When finished printing on envelopes, return the fuser levers to the down position.
CAUTION Failure to return levers to the down position for standard paper types can result in poor print quality.
