Preparation for Printing

• Before setting envelopes, press down on all four corners and edges of the envelopes to remove curls and bends, as well as any air contained.
  
  
  
  
• The flap of the envelope should be straightened if bent. If the envelope is curled, hold the opposite corners and gently bend them in the opposite direction.
• If the leading edge of the envelope is puffed or curled up, use a pen, etc. to press the envelope flat and sharpen the crease.
  
  
  
  Note: Press the envelope completely flat, working from the middle to the edge.
  
  
• Ensure that the flap of the envelope is perfectly straight.
