Tips on using envelopes
Print samples on the envelopes being considered for use before buying large quantities.
When printing on envelopes:
Load envelopes from the manual feeder.
Use envelopes designed specifically for laser printers. Check with the manufacturer or vendor to ensure the
envelopes can withstand temperatures up to 210°C (410°F) without sealing, wrinkling, curling excessively, or
releasing hazardous emissions.
For the best performance, use envelopes made from 90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond) paper or 25% cotton bond. Use up to
105 g/m
2
(28 lb bond) weight for envelopes as long as the cotton content is 25% or less. All-cotton envelopes
must not exceed 90 g/m
2
(24 lb bond) weight.
The minimum supported weight for envelopes is 75 g/m
2
(20 lb bond). For non-peel strip, self-seal envelopes,
the minimum supported weight is 80 g/m
2
(21 lb bond).
Use only new envelopes.
To optimize performance and minimize jams, do not use envelopes that:
Have excessive curl or twist
Are stuck together or damaged in any way
Have windows, holes, perforations, cutouts, or embossing
Have metal clasps, string ties, or folding bars
Have an interlocking design
Have postage stamps attached
Have any exposed adhesive when the flap is in the sealed or closed position
Have bent corners
Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes
Have rough, cockle, or laid finishes
Adjust the width guides to fit the width of the envelopes.
Note: A combination of high humidity (over 60%) and the high printing temperature may wrinkle or seal envelopes.
