NOTE: Envelopes can be printed only from Tray 5 (Bypass Tray).

Guidelines

Successful envelope printing is highly dependent on the quality and construction of the envelopes. Some wrinkling or embossing may occur when printing on envelopes. Only use paper envelopes specified in the machine.

• Print quality depends on the quality and construction of the envelopes. Try another envelope brand if you do not achieve the required results.

• Maintain constant temperatures and relative humidity.

• 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.

• Avoid padded envelopes; purchase envelopes that lie flat on a surface.

• Avoid envelopes with heat activated glue.

• Avoid envelopes with press and seal flaps.

• Remove air bubbles from the envelopes before loading them into the tray by setting a heavy book on top of them.

• In the print driver, select [Envelope] as the paper type.

CAUTION: Never use envelopes with windows or metal clasps; they can damage the printer. Damage caused by using unsupported envelopes is not covered under the Xerox warranty, service agreement, or Total Satisfaction Guarantee.
