Envelopes may be printed in two ways:

n

lopes)

n

From the optional envelope feeder (up to 100 envelopes)

Non-standard-size envelopes are acceptable using manual feed as
long as they fall into the following size ranges:

n

Minimum size: 3.5" x 7" (86 mm x 178 mm)

n

Maximum size: 7.4" x 10.5" (188 mm x 267 mm)

Formatting Data for Envelopes

Your printer receives the necessary instructions to print on envelopes
from your software. Read the printing section of your application man-
ual to find out how your software supports envelope printing. The
page orientation should be in landscape mode for most applications.
Usually, this is accomplished through the application.

When formatting data for envelopes, leave a 0.6" (15 mm) margin
from the edges of the envelope. Print on only one side. Remember,
some parts of an envelope consist of three layers of paper the front,
back, and flap. Print in these layered regions may be faded.

Printing a Single Envelope

Adjust the manual feed guides on top of the cassette to the correct
size of the envelope. Insert a single envelope into the manual feed
