Envelopes

Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary

considerably, not only between manufacturers, but also within a

box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on

envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. When

selecting envelopes, consider the following components:

• Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed

90 g/m

(24 lb) or jamming may occur.

• Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with

less than 6 mm (0.25 in.) curl, and should not contain air.

• Condition: Envelopes should not be wrinkled, nicked, or

otherwise damaged.

• Temperature: You should use envelopes that are compatible

with the heat and pressure of the printer.

• Size: You should only use envelopes within the following size

ranges.

OTES

• Use only the Multi-Purpose Tray to print envelopes.
• You may experience some paper jams when using any media

with a length less than 127 mm (5.0 in.). This may be caused by

paper that has been affected by environmental conditions. For

optimum performance, make sure you are storing and handling

the paper correctly. Please refer to “Printer and Paper Storage

Environment” on page C.7.
