Printing Envelopes

Your printer provides two methods for printing envelopes:

• If you’re printing a single envelope, you can use the single-

envelope slot and leave your paper in the IN tray. This allows
you to print the envelope and then a letter.

• If you’re printing a stack of envelopes, use the IN tray.

Avoid shiny or embossed envelopes, or those that have clasps
or windows. (Use transparent labels instead for these sorts of
envelopes.) Also, envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled
edges or with areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise
damaged could get stuck in the printer.

Many programs include a feature for printing envelopes. In that
case, follow the program’s instructions for setup and for placing
the envelopes in the printer.
