Load Envelopes in the Bypass Tray

NOTE: You can print envelopes only from the bypass tray. See the Related Content section for additional information about guidelines for printing envelopes.

1. Open the bypass tray.
   
   NOTE: If the bypass tray is open and loaded with paper already, remove any paper that is a different size or type.
   
   

   1. To open the bypass tray, press the cover.
      
      
      
      

   2. Fully extend the bypass tray.
      
      
      
      

2. Move the length and width guides out. If you do not load envelopes in the bypass tray right after they have been removed from the packaging, they can bulge. To avoid jams, flatten the envelopes.
   
   
   
   

3. To load envelopes, place the envelopes with the print side up, flaps closed and down, and the flap of the envelope to the left.
   
   
   
   

4. If the control panel Paper Settings screen prompts you, verify the paper size, type, and color.

5. When finished, touch Confirm.
