Guidelines for Printing Envelopes

Print quality depends on the quality and construction of the envelopes. Try another envelope brand if you do not get desired results.

Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

Store unused envelopes in their packaging to avoid excess moisture and dryness which can affect print quality and cause wrinkling. Excessive moisture can cause the envelopes to seal before or during printing.

Before loading envelopes into the tray, remove air bubbles by setting a heavy book on top of them.

In the print driver software, select Envelope as the paper type.

Do not use padded envelopes. Use envelopes that lie flat on a surface.

Do not use envelopes with heat-activated glue.

Do not use envelopes with press-and-seal flaps.

Use only paper envelopes.

Do not use envelopes with windows or metal clasps.
