envelopes, as they will cause paper feed
problems:

• That are embossed (have raised writing
on them).

sides of the envelopes or post cards to
make them as flat as possible.

feeding,’ put one envelope in the paper
tray at a time.

Put the envelopes or post cards into the
paper tray with the address side down
and the leading edge (top of the

guides (1) and paper length guide (2) to
fit the size of the envelopes or post
cards.
