Guidelines for Printing Envelope
Envelopes can be printed from Tray 1 and from the manual feed slot.
Do not perform automatic 2-sided printing using envelopes.
Successful envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the envelopes.
Use envelopes made specifically for laser printers, in the supported sizes. For a listing of supported
envelope sizes for Tray 1 and the manual feed slot, see Supported Paper on page 48.
Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid the effects of moisture and dryness, which can
affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the envelopes to seal before
or during printing. For best results, maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.
Do not use padded envelopes. Purchase envelopes that lie flat.
Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading by setting a heavy book on top of the
envelopes.
If wrinkling or embossing problems occur, use a different brand of envelope made specifically for
laser printers.
CAUTION: Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps because they can
damage the printer. Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes is not covered
under the Xerox
