Printing on special media
This section provides information about how to print on media such as envelopes, postcards,
and transparencies.
Printing on envelopes and cards
You can print envelopes and cards from Tray 1. Cards must be at least 3 by 5 inches (76.2 by 127 mm)
in size.
Tips for printing envelopes
Observe the following guidelines to avoid jams and wrinkled or torn output:
•
Avoid envelopes that have a very slick finish, self-stick adhesives, clasps, or windows. Also avoid
envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise
damaged.
•
Use a sturdy envelope of approximately 16 to 27 lb (60 to 101
g/m
2
) weight. Use tightly constructed
envelopes, and make sure the folds are sharply creased.
