Printing on Special Paper
Envelopes
You can load envelopes individually using the single sheet loading
feature from the top paper guide only. If you want to load several
envelopes at the same time, you can install the optional single-bin
cut-sheet feeder. See Chapter 4 for a description of loading
envelopes with the cut-sheet feeder.
Before loading an envelope, set the position of the paper-thickness
lever to position 2, 3, or 4, depending on the thickness of the
envelope. To load an envelope, follow the steps described in
loading single sheets from the top, earlier in this chapter.
Note:
l
The print head must not print past the left or right edge of
the envelope or other thick paper. Make sure that your
application program keeps printing entirely within the
printable area of the envelope you are using.
l
Always keep the longer side of the envelope horizontal.
